一、选择题1．— More and more people love __________ their riches on Tik Tok (抖音).— That should not be allowed on the Internet.A．giving off B．putting off C．showing off D．turning off C解析：C【详解】句意：-越来越多的人们喜欢在抖音上炫耀他们的财富。

-那在互联网上应该是不允许的。

giving off发出；putting off推迟；showing off炫耀；turning off关闭。

根据空后…their riches 可知，这里表示“炫耀财富”，故选C。

2．John and his family ______ in China for fifteen years already.A．live B．have lived C．are living D．will live B解析：B【详解】句意：约翰和他的家人已经在中国住了十五年了。

考查现在完成时。

A. live居住，动词原形；B. have lived现在完成时；C. are living现在进行时；D. will live一般将来时。

根据for fifteen years“15年”，表示一段时间，可知动作是从过去开始，持续到现在的状态，所以用现在完成时态，其结构为：have/has+动词过去分词，主语是John and his family，为复数形式，所以助动词用have，live的过去分词是lived；故答案选B。

3．— Could you tell me ______? Someone is waiting for him outside.— Sorry, I don’t know.A．where Mr. Green is B．where is Mr. GreenC．where Mr. Green was D．where was Mr. Green A解析：A【解析】【详解】句意：——你能告诉我格林先生在哪里吗？有人在外面等他。

The monarch is one of the most beautiful butterflies.It is famous for its yearly migration （迁徙）from the northern part of North America to Mexico, There, millions of monarchs spend the winter together in one small area.This migration is one of the greatest wonders of nature.Yet this behavior has now put the monarch at risk.Every September, millions of monarchs from the United States fly to Mexico.After about two months of flying time, they reach their sanctuary(庇护所)in central Mexico.Then, in the warm climate of private and quiet valleys, far from most human activity, the butterflies create one of nature’s great scenes.They cover every tree with bright color.The show lasts until spring, when the butterflies return north.While they are all crowded together, the monarchs are highly weak.If the environment in those valleys was disturbed, the whole species could be hurt or even die out.That is why for many years scientists who knew about the monarchs’winter sanctuary kept the location a secret.In recent years, however, the monarchs’secret has been discovered.Today, the butterflies’winter sanctuary is crowded with tourists, who disturb the environment.Worse still, local farmers who need more land to farm have begun to take up the area.They are cutting down trees, making it difficult for the butterflies to survive.They should not farm in the monarchs’sanctuary.People should act immediately to protect the species’winter sanctuary.Local farmers must be helped so that they no longer need to take land from the butterflies.Tourist visits to the butterflies’hidden valleys must also be limited.Unless these steps are taken soon, in a few years the monarch butterfly of North America may be just a beautiful memory.1.

To protect the monarchs.4. What is the purpose of the text?A. To tell about a great place to watch monarch butterflies.B. To provide information about monarch butterflies.C. To ask people to protect monarch butterflies.D. To call on people to save the environment.D16.It was the first day of second grade, and Sarah had been looking forward to this moment.The night before,she laid out her favorite clothes: a white coat and a bright yellow shirt.When having breakfast, Sarah dropped some food on her shirt, so she had to change into her second-best clothes, blue jeans and a Jonas Brothers T-shirt.After breakfast Sarah rushed to catch the school bus and when she was just reaching the door the bus driver opened it.The door hit right in Sarah’s face and blood dripped from her nose.The driver wanted to send her home, but she refused, "It is the most important day of the year!

Marcus was a quiet boy who lived with his mother in a shelter (收容所) for the poor. Because he was the weakest 1 in his class, he became one of my Reading Help students. Marcus knew letters but couldn't read at all. However, he worked very hard and made progress very 2 . I often gave him books to take home every night so that he could read them with his mother.One day, Marcus didn't bring his books back. He looked so 3 that he was about to cry.When asked why, he told me that someone had taken his book bag during the night. I put my arm around his shoulders and 4 that I would give him more books to take home. "Maybe the person who took your books," I said, "will become a good reader just like you."A few weeks later, I learned Marcus and his mother were being moved to a different shelter across town for safety. I began to 5 what his future would be if he couldn't finish the program. Marcus' mother was worried too, so she put him on public transportation every day and sent him all the way across town to 6 with me.Marcus finally graduated from the program as a strong reader.

His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap, and drove a white truck. As a five-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer(硬币兑换器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery, and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese and eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note, “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery,” and put it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There was a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr Basille even had a key to my house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we could box indoors, So that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr Basille from time to time, taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allow the production of cheaper milk, so making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere. And it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and fixed it on the back porch(门廊). Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is, so I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milk man who brought us friendship along with his milk.1．Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer______.A．to please his motherB．to pay for the deliveryC．to show his magical powerD．to satisfy the boy’s curiosity(好奇心)2．If they needed to change their order, they should____A．call the milkmanB．wait for the milkC．leave a note in the boxD．leave a note on the door3．Why is there no longer milk delivery todayA．It is not allowed by the law.B．Its service is getting poor.C．It has been driven out of the market.D．Nobody wants to be a milkman now.4．Why did writer bring back home an old milk boxA．He planted flowers in it.B．He missed the good old days.C．He needed it for his milk bottles.D．He wanted to tell interesting stories.5．What can be inferred(推断) from the fact that t he milkman had the key to the boy’s houseA．He was a funny person.B．He wanted to have tea there.C．He was fully trusted by the family.D．He was treated as a family member.Ⅴ.书面表达19、书面表达生活中总有一些事情让人觉得无奈，被人误解、考试失利、遭遇逆境等。

Bu t have you ever thought about how to spend your pocket money wisely? Here is some advice.Make a list.When you get your pocket money, don’t get too excited. We all have a lot of things that we want. But do you really need them? That’s why it is necess ary to make a list before you spend money. Start with the thing you want most. You can also write down how much it costs or how important it is in your life. By doing this, you will see if it is really necessary to buy it.Help others.How about being more selfless and using your pocket money to help others? We all know that there are many people in the world who are in need of our help. Helping others brings out the best in us and is one of the greatest joys in our lives. So consider using your pocket money to do something useful and helpful, and feel how you can make a difference.Save as much as you can.There is an old saying that “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” If you spend all your pocket money right away, you’llhave no money until your next “pay day”. A wallet sometimes might not be the best place to save money because it may make it easier for you to spend your money. Get a piggy bank（存钱罐）or ask your parents to start a savings account (账户) for you. Someday when you look back, you’ll get a stro ng feeling of achievement by saving so much money by yourself!1．Why should we make a list before spending money?A．Because it can help us know if we have enough money for the things.B．Because it can make sure we buy everything we need.C．Because it can help us know which thing is the most expensive.D．Because it can help us buy things that we want most.2．What does the underlined sentence “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” mean?A．Money is as important as trees. B．Money doesn’t come easily.C．One can make money by growing trees. D．We should use our money to protect the environment.3．The best place to save money can be ________ according to the writer.A．our piggy bank B．our parents’ wallet C．our parents’ account D．our wallet4．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A．Helping others can bring us great happiness.B．Saving much money can make us get a strong feeling of achievement.C．Pocket money can be used to do something useful and helpful.D．We should tell our parents before we buy something expensive.5．What is the best title for the passage?A．How to save pocket money B．How to get pocket moneyC．How to help others with pocket money D．How to spend pocket moneyB14、Many social study books and articles have graphs to go with the text. A graph is a kind of picture that shows amounts, or numbers, at a glance. A graph can show the same information that is in the text,but it helps you “picture" the information and makes it easier to understand and quicker to read. A circle graph, also called a pie graph, is divided into "slices". It shows how the parts fit into the whole. Here are some suggestions on how to read it.Step 1 Read the title to find out what the graph is about. The circle graph below shows the population of Washington, D．C．Step 2 Look at the slices. This graph has seven “slices". Each shows one group of people. You can see how each part compares to the whole---how each group compares to the total population.Step 3 Use the label (标签) to find out what is being compared. The labels on the graph name the group of people who live in Washington, D．C．A line connects the correct part of the graph.Step 4 Read the introduction to the graph. The passage beside the graph may offer some more detailed information of the topic.1．Where is a graph most probably used according to the writer?A．An invitation letter to a birthday party.B．An introduction of the steps to plant trees.C．A fairy tale on an old man moving the hill.D．A study on different ways to spend holidays.2．Which group of people makes up more than half of the population of Washington, D．C?A．Caucasian B．Mixed races C．Latino D．African American3．What does the writer suggest doing with the slices?A．Joining the different slices. B．Mixing the slices and informationC．Comparing the slices to the whole. D．Matching the slices and numbers.4．The writer organizes this writing by ________.A．giving an example B．asking a question C．listing reasons D．telling a storyC15、Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree withthem.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources（资源）, we are short of（缺乏）others, for example, fresh water（淡水）. It is reported that we will have no coal（煤）or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources，what can we use in the future and where can we move？Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life，we can do many things to prevent waste from happening，for example，turn off the water taps （水龙头）when we finish washing，turn off the lights when we leave the classroom，try not to order more food than we need，and so on. Little by little，everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day，if we do our best. 1．From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school.A．eat too much B．don’t work hardC．waste things D．throw rubbish everywhere2．Which is not mentioned in this passage？A．Fresh water B．Forest.C．Oil. D．Coal.3．What may happen in 100 years？A．We may still have enough oil. B．We may still have enough coal.C．We may have a little oil. D．We may have no coal or oil to use.4．Which of the following is right？A．Waste brings problems. B．Waste can bring no problem.C．China is rich in fresh water. D．Students never waste things.5．Which is the best title of this passage？A．Stop Wasting B．School lifeC．Waste in the School D．Rich Resources in ChinaD16、Saying no starts small'All right then-just one more piece…' Words every girl has said when they are faced with the delicious cheesecake. Of course, many of us know we may eat the whole thing in the end.It isn't just girls. Most of us find it hard to say 'no' to something attractive, However, scientists now say that willpower is very important to success and a happy life.Scientists in different countries have been studying the effects of willpower on people's lives for a long time. The results are similar, according to an article on February 7 in the Guardian, a famous British newspaper.In one experiment, scientists told young children that they could either have a marshmallow(圆形软糖) now, or two marshmallows in 15 minutes. Waiting obviously needed more willpower. Scientists then continued studying the children as they grew up. They wanted to see if some children always had stronger willpower. They also wanted to see how having stronger willpower affected their lives.Years later, scientists found that the children who had waited for two marshmallows were all healthier, happier and richer adults. Oppositely, the children who had shown weaker willpower at that young age were more likely to be inlow-paid jobs, to be overweight, to have social problems.But there is hope, Roy F Baumeister, an American social psychology(心理学) professor(教授) told the Guardian. Baumeister says we can train our willpower just like we train our muscles. Even a little practice can strengthen our overall self-control if we do it regularly.You could start by making yourself stand up straight, speaking in complete sentences, or using a computer mouse with the other hand. Scientists have found that people who manage to change little habits often perform much better in laboratory willpower tests.Like muscles, willpower can 'get tired'. Don't try to do too many things at the same time, or when you don't have enough energy, for example when you are ill. If you already feel tired, you can try to recharge(恢复) your willpower with a good night's sleep and by eating well.1．The example of a girl eating cheesecake is used to_______.A．prove that girls have weak willpowerB．introduce the topic of willpower to the readersC．show that cheesecake is especially attractive to girlsD．show the connection between willpower and success2．What can we infer from the experiment?A．The scientists had already known the results before the experiment.B．It showed that willpower is the most important to success and a happy life.C．The children who chose to wait were more likely to be successful in their lives.D．The children who chose only one marshmallow at first had stronger willpower.3．Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the training of willpower?A．Y ou should have a goal every day.B．Good rest and proper diet can help.C．Willpower needs to be exercised regularly.D．Keep willpower from being used too much.4．What is the article mainly about?A．How willpower and muscles are similar and how they can be trained. B．How willpower affects people's lives and how it is similar to muscles. C．How willpower is important to success and how we can make it stronger. D．How willpower is connected with success and how they affect each other.E17、1．With Fashion Shop, you ____.A．don’t need to pay for what you wantB．don’t have to wait for a long time to pay for what you buyC．can buy anything at the lowest priceD．can become tired of buying so many things2．If you ______, you can learn any language in a very short time.A．go to Fashion ShopB．go to Happy Every DayC．join the Smart Learning ProgramD．call someone at 8855-67313．Suppose the cost of the course at Computer World is 800 yuan.

Tiffany’s mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anyt hing she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn’t give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was angry with her.Whenever I didn’t get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany’s mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say “Poor Tiffany”. I couldn’t understand her. “She shouldn’t be feeling sorry for Tiffany!” I thought. “She should be feeling sorry for me.”One day, I couldn’t help saying to Mom, “Poor Tiffany? Luc ky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her?”I burst into tears.My mom sat down next to me and said softly. “Y es, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught.”I looked up at her. “What are you talking about?”Mom said with care, “One day she will really want something. Maybe she’ll find out that she can’t have it. Her mother won’t always be around to give her money, and what’s more, money can’t buy everything.”She continued, “Ihave taught you useful lessons by not giving you everything you want. You’ll know how to be yourself and save money, but she won’t. Y ou’ll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won’t. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she’l l wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you’ve got.

In recent years, people use this term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable way. The word became more popular with the newest Apple’s gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China’s rich people. The color became known as “tuhaogold”. The word is now often used to refer to people who have the cash but lack taste.There are two other Chinese hot words:damaandNoZuoNoDie, which may also be taken in the dictionary.Dama,meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by theWall Street Journal. Thousands of Chinese women were buying a large amount of gold when the gold price had gone down. Another phraseNoZuoNoDiemeans if you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back to bite you, is also very popular. Other words, suchasMaotai,Chinglishand "dimsum" have also been included in the dictionary.“Words likedamaa ndtuhaoare so vivid. My friends and I use them a lot—it’s so much fun,” said an American student who studies in Beijing.BBC World News recently made a special program called “Tuhao,let’s be friends!” “The frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggest s that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China,” says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Peking University.What does this trend suggest about the Chinese language's influence?Xing Hongbing, professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said “These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases is the Chinese culture. They are reflections of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand what's happening in China.”1．__________can be called “tuhao” according to the passage.A．The rich who like iPhone made of goldB．The people who bought a lot of goldC．People who can be friendsD．The rich people who lack taste2．Which of the following word is NOT Chinglish hot word?A．dama B．karaoke C．tuhao D．dimsum3．Why does the word “Dama” become so popular now?A．They bought gold crazily when the gold price were down.B．They are wealthy middle-aged women.C．They made the gold prices up.D．They worked on the Wall Street.4．According to the passage, Xing Hongbing agreed that______.A．Chinglish hot words tell some funny things about China.B．Chinglish plays important roles in daily life of Chinese.C．Chinglish hot words are so vivid that people like using them a lot.D．foreigners want to know more about the culture of China from Chinglish.5．What is the purpose of writing this article__________.A．To describe the hot words in Oxford English dictionary.B．To explain the meanings of some Chinese hot words .C．To describe the use of Chinglish hot words and their influence.D．To show the different opinions about Chinglish hot words.D16、A little girl had a doll.

When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture．For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollart icket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy is a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $ 200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser!He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some officers often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost on e million jobs andgained three million jobs. Then she tries another term. One of the persons who don’t support her says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.’’Advertisers will sometimes use half—truths. It’s against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors a dvised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache. ”It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.This kind of thing happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.1．We may infer that the author believes people should ________.A．buy lottery tickets if possibleB．make use of half—truthsC．be careful about what they are toldD．not trust the Yucky Company2．How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to deceive?A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four3．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．Using half truths is against the law.B．Technically, half truths are in fact lies.C．Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.D．Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.4．Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?A．He’s really a big loser!B．Sometimes the truth can lie．C．Advertisers will sometimes use half truths．D．It’s ag ainst the law to make false statements．Ⅴ.书面表达19、书面表达根据要求完成短文写作，请将作文写在答题卡指定的位置上。

In the morning, you are 1 up by the singing of birds outside. You can enjoy all of these things because of one important organ(器官)－the ears. March 3 is Ear CareDay. It helps us remember the 2 of our ears and encourages us to take good care of them. You may wonder: how do the ears 3 ? The ear has three different parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear is the part you can see. It collects 4 around you. The sound then travels down to the middle ear, the inner ear and then to your brain.Your ears never stop working, even 5 you are asleep! That's why you may sometimes wake up suddenly in the middle of the night－your brain 6 something, but you don't know what it was, since you were asleep.But ears do more than hear. They help you keep your balance, too. In the inner ear, there are organs that are filled 7 liquid(液体)and covered in small hairs. When you move your head, the liquid and hairs move, too. They send 8to your brain about the position of your head.More surprisingly, ears even help with 9 food. If something happens to your ears, you may have a hard time telling different tastes, according to the website of People's Daily.The ears are 10 important organs. Everyone should make sure to protect their own ears as well as they can. 1．A．taken B．cheered C．woken D．dressed2．A．size B．importance C．difference D．shape3．A．move B．taste C．smell D．work4．A．air B．light C．sound D．heat5．A．when B．before C．until D．since6．A．noticed B．heard C．saw D．watched7．A．of B．with C．by D．in8．A．messages B．news C．pictures D．signs9．A．touching B．feeling C．tasting D．eating10．A．quickly B．slowly C．freely D．trulyⅢ. 语法填空12、阅读下面短文，根据语境、音标或所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个适当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。
