Another time，a person has a bad or sad experience with another one．He might say that experience "left a bad taste in my mouth．" Or the person possibly has a very frightening （可怕的）experience，like having an angry dog running after him．He might say："I had my heart in my mouth．"Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family．You might say the person "was born with a silver spoon （银勺）in his mouth"．He is the opposite of a person living from "hand to mouth"．This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life，like food．19.When a man says "I had my heart in my mouth"，usually he means he was ______ ．A. excitedB. afraidC. surprisedD. happy20.Your best friend Tony has said what you are going to say，you might say，" ______ !"A.

Some people read very rapidly（快速地）, while others read very slowly. But which one is better？The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a story book for fun. But he may not beable to slow downenough to read directions carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does not take time to understand fully the ideas and in form a tion which are important to remember. The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions（指南）for making something. But he may spend too much time in reading a simple story which is interesting but is not important enough to be remembered.So, you see, either arapid reader or a slow reader isnot really a good one. If you wish to become a betterreader, here are four important things to remember about speed of reading.※Knowing why you are reading will often help you know whether to read rapidly or slowly. ※Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions, science and history books, and Maths problems. You must read them slowly or remember each important step andunderstand each important idea.※ Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoy ment, letters from friends and some news from hometown papers.※In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, asyou go along. You will need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come toimportant ideas.23.Instruction books should be read ______ ．A. slowlyB. rapidlyC. either rapidly or slowlyD. not rapidly or slowly24.What should be read rapidly______A. Directions formaking something.B. Maths problems.C. Science and history books.D.

To fit your reading speed to your needs.C. To read as slowly as possible.D. To keep your reading at a certain speed.26.Which title best gives the main idea ofthe passage______A. Something about Careful ReadingB. Be a Rapid ReaderC. How to ReadD. How to Be a Slow ReaderDWe have known for a long time that flowers of different plants open and close at different time of day．This is so familiar （熟悉）that we seldom ask the reason for it．But not everyone really understands why flowers open and close like this．The process is not as simple as we think，as a recent study shows．In the study，people kept flowers in a dark room for more than 24hours．They thought that the flowers，without any information about the time of day，would not open as they normally do．However，the flowers continued to open at their usual time．This shows that they have some magical way of knowing the time．Their sense of time does not depend on information from the outside world；it is inside them，a kind of "inner clock"．This discovery （发现）may not seem to be very important．However，people later found that not just plants but also animals-including man-have this "inner clock" which controls （控制）the working of their bodies and affects（影响）their activities．Menare also affected by this "magic"．Whether we wish it or not，it affects such things in our life as our need for sleep，our need for food．In the past，this did not matter very much because people lived in natural condition．In the modern world，things are different；now there are spacemen，plane pilots （飞行员）and a lot of other people who have to work at night．It would be very useful to know more about the "inner clock"．The things we find from flowers might help us understand more about ourselves．27.

A new type of accommodation (住宿) choice called bed-and-breakfast (B&B) is welcoming more visitors in China.During this month’s Golden Week, bookings for the B&Bs in China grew by 400 percent from 2016, according to B&B booking website .Starting in Europe, B&B is often a private family home. Travellers pay to stay overnightand have breakfast. In China, many B&Bs are in rural (农村的) areas and are more about fun, experiences and new friendships, reported by China Daily.“The meals are cooked by the host. Very often, vegetables are homegrown. Hosts and guests chat over a meal and play with the pets together,” Yu Minliang, a 23-year-old tourist from Shanghai, told China Daily.However, as more B&Bs come out, the service sometimes may not be good enough. Some guests complained the soundproofing (隔音) is bad and the house is dirty.To solve the problem, the first national industry standards were carried out on Oct.1. For example, every B&B should provide no more than 14 guest rooms and things like towels and sheets must be changed after every visitor.The standards will help the B&B industry develop in a healthy and sustainable (可持续的) way, reported CNR (中国广播网).34．What is B&B?A．A new way of welcoming visitors in Europe.

C．Chat with each other and draw some pictures D．Cook meals and play with the pets together.36．Which of the following is NOT included in the standards?A．Change towels and sheets. B．Provide no more than 14 guest rooms. C．Make sure the rooms are clean and tidy. D．Make sure hot water is in service all day. 37．According to the last paragraph, we can infer ___________.A．the national standards are useless for B&B industry B．people have no interest inB&BC．there will be a brighter future for the B&B industry D．people will no longer choose B&B to liveIt happened two years ago. It was Mother’s Day morning. I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit herhead on the ground. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed (尴尬的) and clearly in shock. Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very sad about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermarket a charity group had set up a stand selling fish and chips and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,”he said. I was amazed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture (姿势).”By now paramedics (救援人员) had arrived, and were attending the injured (受伤的) woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment (器具). He said he didn’t want to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him, “My son was very sad for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.38．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.B．Tenyson’s idea of buying a flower got his mother’s support.C．Tenyson’s care for the elderly woman s urprised the flower seller.D．The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson’s gesture.39．The underlined word “intimidated” in the passage probably means “___________”. A．surprised B．pleased C．frightened D．excited 40．Choose the right order of the events given in the story. _________a. The paramedics arrived and attended the injured woman.b. We bought a flower for the lady to cheer her up.c. I did some shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son.d. My son became very sad about what had happened to the couple.e. An elderly woman fell over at the entrance.A．c, e, a, b, d B．a, c, e, d, b C．c, a, e, d, b D．c, e, d, b, a 41．What would be the best title for the passage?A．The Power of Flower B．Mother’s DayC．An Accidental Injury D．An Embarrassing MomentThe British government has started a ￡10 million Mandarin Excellence(普通话优秀) Program. The program will see over 5,000 British students towards fluency(流利) in Mandarin Chinese by 2020.The program is led by local schools and supported by University College London. So far, 14 schools have taken part in the program. Hundreds of secondary school students in England have taken lessons in Mandarin Chinese. Over the next three years, they will spend eight hours studying Mandarin Chinese every week.Nick Gibb is an officer of the British government. He said a high level of fluency in Mandarin Chinese would become more and more important. “Language skills are important for jobs and life. Mandarin Chinese is spoken by the largest number of people in the world. It is also one of the languages that is the most important to our country’s future. If the United Kingdom wants to remain competitive(竞争的) in the world，we do need far more of our young people leaving school with a good command(精通) of Mandarin Chinese,” Gibb added. “We hope that our young people could be given the chance to study the language. We want them to be fluent in both spoken and written Mandarin. The Mandarin Excellence Program will help us do this. It will not only open the students’ eyes, but also give them a great advantage when they enter the world of work.”British kids, in fact, are not alone. In America, about 200,000 students are studying Mandarin Chinese. It is believed that 800,000 more will join them over the next couple of years.42．According to the article, about ________ students in America will study Mandarin Chinese over the next couple of years.A．5,000 B．200,000 C．800,000 D．1,000,000 43．Nick Gibb thinks that the Mandarin Excellence Program may ________.① help British students find better jobs in the future② help the United Kingdom remain competitive in the world③ give more British students a chance to learn Mandarin Chinese④ help the United Kingdom improve its relationship with ChinaA．①②③B．①②④C．①③④D．②③④44．Which of the following sentences is TRUE?A．Over 5,000 American students are studying Mandarin Chinese.B．Fourteen schools from Britain have taken part in the program.C．British students will soon stop learning Mandarin Chinese after 2020.D．Mandarin Chinese has been the most widely-written language in the world.45．What is the main idea of the article?A．People in the world are learning Mandarin Chinese.B．Mandarin Chinese is one of the most difficult languages to learn.C．The UK has started a program to help its young people learn Mandarin Chinese. D．Mandarin Chinese will soon be the most widely-used language instead of English.根据句子的意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。

And we are only the beginning, for we have just entered the age of super ﹣fast trains, which are traveling 150miles an hour and more．Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on highways and planes we can't fly in because we don't have enough money to buy the oil．（1）．The writer thinks that railways are much alive now because________．A.they are cheaper and more convenient．B.there aren't any planes or cars．C.we can have a comfortable journey．D.we feel dangerous on highways．（2）．According to the writer，which of the following is NOT true？________A.It is cheaper to travel by train than by plane．B.The railway station is usually at the center of the city．C.When you get off a plane you will find yourself right in the city center．D.No car or plane can carry as many goods as a train．（3）．What does the underline word ________ prefer to？________A.参与性的B．C.竞争性的D．（4）．The best title for this passage may be________．A.Which is the Best，Train，Car or Plane？．B.Railways，not the End，but the Beginning．C.Trains are More Competitive than Cars or Planes．D.Oh，Super﹣fast Trains．The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971in downtown Seattle, Washington, in the United States．It was a small coffee shop．The coffee shop's business did well, and by 1981there were three more Starbucks stores in Seattle． Things really began to change for the company in 1981．That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran （经营）Starbucks．Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment（设备）．He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers．Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw．He wanted to become part of the company．In 1982, the original （原先的）Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing． In 1983, Schultz traveled to Italy．The unique atmosphere of the espresso（浓咖啡）bars there caught his eye．To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, work, and coffee bars．His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle． chultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable, and customers everywhere seemed to like it．Between 1987and 1992, Starbucks opened 150new stores﹣﹣﹣and that was only the beginning．In fact, in the year 2000, three new Starbucks stores opened somewhere around the world every day!

分）1.【答案】A【考点】感叹句【解答】答案：A．英语中的感叹句要有what和how来引导，其句型是：How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语+其他!以及What+（a/an）+形容词+可数名词/不可数名词+主语+谓语+其他!根据所给的单词，形容词是fantastic，have a fantastic time玩得开心，应用what来感叹，故答案是：A．2.【答案】D【考点】反意疑问句【解答】答案：D．反意疑问句是由陈述句+简略疑问句构成的．如果陈述句是肯定的，后面就要用否定的，原句含有never是一个含有否定意义的词，故反义疑问句用肯定，并且还要根据陈述句的主语和谓语，来确定后面疑问部分动词的形式．原句表达的是客观事实用一般现在时，be late for迟到，故is she，故选D．3.【答案】B【考点】现在完成时【解答】答案：B．结合上文Where is your teacher可知老师不在，去了某地，动作发生在过去，持续了一段时间用现在完成时have/has+过去分词，have/has gone to去了某地，have/has been to 去过某地，have/has been in在某地待了多久，主语he，故has，结合for an hour可知是表达待了多久，故答案是B．4.【答案】D【考点】介词辨析【解答】正确答案：D．A作介词，表示像，B是比如，C是例如，三个选项都可以用来举例，like与such as常可互换使用，用来列举同类人或事物中的几个例子，但for example一般只用列举同类人或事物中的一个．根据题干可知说话人收集了许多像/比如美国和法国的邮票，故选择D．5.【答案】B【考点】现在完成时【解答】答案：B．结合语境可知上文描述的是过去发生的动作，故用一般过去时态．下文for nearly twenty years描述的是从过去一直持续到现在的动作，故用现在完成时态have/has+过去分词．瞬间动词leave不能和表示一段时间的时间状语连用和how long连用，故用when，leave表示瞬间动作，换成be away，主语he，故has，故选：B．6.【答案】A【考点】形容词的比较级和最高级【解答】答案：A．考查最高级．句意"秋天是去山上旅行的最佳季节吗？是的，这是我去过的最美丽的山．"．A最美丽的，最高级．B一个美丽的…C更美丽的，比较级．D搭配不正确．结合语境"I have ever traveled to"我去过的，可知，应该用最高级形式，答案是A．7.【答案】C【考点】不可数名词【解答】答案：C根据选项可知考查名词experience的用法，experience意为"经验"时为不可数名词只有单数形式，意为"经历"时为可数名词，结合题干He is a teacher with a lot of _________该句意为：他是一名有很多…的老师，可推知在该句中experience意为"经验"即他是一名经验丰富的老师，故第一个空填experience；根据题干He often tells us many of his interesting _____ in Africa．该句意为：他经常告诉我们他在非洲有趣的…可推知在该句中experience意为"经历"即他在非洲有趣的经历，又知空格前有many后接可数名词复数，故填入experience的复数experiences，对照选项故选C8.【答案】B【考点】形容词辨析【解答】答案：B，考察形容词辨析及句意理解，对于alone和lonely两个词，alone只是陈述一个客观事实，意思是"独自一人"，可作形容词，副词或者表语；而lonely 则有浓厚的感情色调，指因缺少朋友、同情、友谊时所发生的一种悲伤的和忧郁的感情，意思是"孤独"、"寂寞"，作形容词．分析句子结构，第一空修饰词为man，表示一个情感上孤独的男人，用lonely，表示孤独的，第二空表示自己住在一个小房子里，填写alone 表示独自的，为副词修饰动词live；最后一空表示老人会感到孤独，所以用lonely，选择B．9.【答案】C【考点】一般过去时【解答】答案：C．根据Jack _______ Rose in 1998，这里in 1998是一个过去的时间，所以用一般过去时，marry的过去式是married，这里marry是及物动词，所以后面直接可加宾语，而且marry…to…是表示父母把女儿嫁给某人或为儿子娶媳妇，所以这里不需要加to；再根据for 15 years，可知这里指的是一段时间，通常用于现在完成时之中，而且动词应该用延续性动词，表示结婚应该用be married．故选C．10.【答案】C【考点】宾语从句【解答】答案：C．宾语从句how long作为引导词，后加陈述句语序，故排除A，B．主句是一般现在时，从句时态不受限制，结合上下文语境表演已经开始，发生在过去，持续了一段时间，故用现在完成时have/has+过去分词，begin是短暂性动词，不能与how long连用，故换成be on，故答案是C．11.【答案】C【考点】现在完成时【解答】答案：C．there be表示有，结合前后语境是表达你的生活有什么改变吗，发生在过去，对现在造成一定的影响，故用现在完成时have/has+过去分词，主语changes复数，故have，be的过去分词been，这里是特殊疑问句，将have提前，故have there been，故选C．12.【答案】A【考点】动名词【解答】答案：A．根据Would you mind _______ here，可知你介意我坐在这里吗？这里考查would you mind my+名词或动名词，句子中sitting是个动名词，所以前面用my这个形容词性物主代词，再根据The seat has been taken by an old person，可知座位已经被一个老人占了，所以你最好不要坐在这里．最好不要做某事用You'd better not．故选A．13.【答案】C【考点】情态动词【解答】答案：C．考查情态动词．句意"﹣﹣今天下午你能加入我们吗？﹣﹣对不起，我不能．我不得不照顾我的妹妹，因为我妈妈出去了．"．could 开头的一般疑问句表示语气更加委婉礼貌，不表示一般过去时态，所以否定回答仍然用can't，不用couldn't．第二个空，根据因为我妈妈出去了，可知不得不照顾我的妹妹，用have to．答案是C．14.【答案】C【考点】介词短语【解答】答案：C；考查介词．A．By the way．顺便问一下，在此不切题，B．In a way 在一个方面，强调单方面，C．In some ways在某些方面，强调多方面D．In some way在某些方便，这个短语中way应该用复数，在此是个错误表达．根据题意，"在有些方面她是好老师，但不是好妈妈"，强调多方面，应该用In some ways，故答案为C．15.【答案】C【考点】固定搭配【解答】答案：C．used to do sth过去常常做某事．be used to doing sth习惯于做某事，根据but now he is a businessman，是说但是现在是一个商人，那么前面说的应该是以前怎么样，这里用used to do sth．故选C．三、完形填空（共15 小题；每小题1 分，计15 分）阅读下列短文，从文后各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案．【答案】AACACDBCDBCDABC【考点】记叙文完形【解答】（1）A 考查细节理解．结合文意，Meyer
