I didn’t recognize the true meaning of it until last year. In my neighborhood came a man with a scary face. The first several times I came across him, I always ran away quickly, with hands covering my eyes. Later, I knew from my parents that he made a lot of effort to keep our neighborhood clean as a volunteer, which provides a better living environment for us.

It is not just a pastime but a powerful tool that can enrich our lives in numerous ways. From the earliest days of human civilization, books have been used to transmit knowledge, share stories, and inspire thoughts. In today’s fast-paced world, where technology dominates much of our daily lives, the importance of reading cannot be overstated.Firstly, reading helps to expand our vocabulary. By encountering new words in different contexts, we learn their meanings and how to use them appropriately. This not only enhances our communication skills but also improves our writing abilities. As we read more, we become more articulate and our thoughts are expressed more clearly and concisely.Secondly, reading fosters empathy and understanding. By stepping into the shoes of characters in books, we gain insights into their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This emotional connection helps us to develop a deeper understanding of human nature and the complexities of human relationships. We learn to appreciate diversity and tolerate differing viewpoints, making us moreempathetic and compassionate individuals.Moreover, reading stimulates the mind and enhances cognitive abilities. It exercises the brain in ways that other activities cannot replicate. Regular reading has been linked to improved memory, concentration, and problem-solving skills. It also keeps the mind sharp and active, reducing the risk of age-related cognitive decline.Finally, reading is a great source of entertainment and relaxation. It offers an escape from the stresses and pressures of daily life, transporting us to different worlds and eras. Whether we prefer thrillers, romance novels, historical fiction, or science fiction, there is something for everyone in the vast realm of literature.In conclusion, the benefits of reading are numerous and far-reaching. It is an invaluable habit that should be encouraged and nurtured throughout our lives.Questions:1.What is the main purpose of the passage?A)To criticize the overuse of technology.B)To promote the importance of reading.C)To discuss the history of books.D)To analyze different genres of literature.Answer: B2.According to the passage, what is one of the key benefits of reading?A)It helps to develop physical strength.B)It improves our social media skills.C)It enhances our cognitive abilities.D)It increases our income potential.Answer: C3.How does reading foster empathy and understanding?A)By teaching us new languages.B)By exposing us to different perspectives and experiences.C)By improving our memory and concentration.D)By providing a source of entertainment and relaxation.Answer: B三、完型填空(15分)III.Cloze Test (Complete the passage with the correct form of the given words)Once upon a time, there was a young man named Tom who had a great passion for (1)_____(travel). He dreamed of visiting every corner of the world and experiencing different cultures. Despite the obstacles he faced, Tom was determined to turn his dream into reality.One day, while (2)_____(browse) through a travel magazine, he stumbled upon an advertisement about an exotic destination he had never heard of before. It was a place called Serendipity Island, a paradise on earth, hidden away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. The description of the island filled Tom with excitement and curiosity, and he knew immediately that this was where he wanted to go next.However, the cost of the trip was quite (3)_____(high), and Tom had to saveup for several months before he could afford it. During this time, he worked tirelessly, taking on extra shifts and cutting back on unnecessary expenses. Finally, the day arrived when he had enough money to book his ticket.With his backpack packed and his heart full of anticipation, Tom boarded the plane and set off on his journey. As the plane soared through the sky, he couldn’t help but feel a mix of excitement and (4)_____(nervous). He wondered what adventures awaited him on Serendipity Island and whether he would be able to handle whatever came his way.Upon arrival, Tom was met with breathtaking scenery and warm smiles from the locals. He spent the next few weeks exploring the island, trying new foods, and meeting interesting people. The experience was beyond anything he could have imagined, and he returned home with a heart full of memories and a renewed sense of purpose.Answers:1.travelling2.browsing3.high4.nervousnessNote: The context and grammar have been adjusted for fluency and coherence while keeping the intended level of difficulty in mind.四、语法填空题(本大题有10小题,每小题1分,共10分)1、The government has taken measures to________(解决) the problem of air pollution. Answer: solve Explanation: The verb “to solve” is used to indicate finding a solution to a problem or difficulty. In this context, the government is taking measures to find a solution to the problem of air pollution. The word “measures” suggests actions being taken, and “solve” is the appropriate verb to complete the phrase “taken measures to solve.”2、By the time he arrives, I________(finish) my work. Answer: will have finished Explanation: This sentence uses the future perfect tense, which is formed by “will have” + past participle. It is used to express an action that will be completed by a certain time in the future. Here, the time reference is “by the time he arrives,” which is a future event. Therefore, the appropriate tense to use is the future perfect, indicating that the action of finishing work will have already been completed by the time he arrives. The verb “finish” is used in its past participle form “finished” to complete the tense.3、The children,______(have) had their breakfast, were allowed to play in the garden.Answer: having hadExplanation: This sentence requires the use of a present participle phrase to describe the children’s prior action of having breakfast. The present participle form “having” is used with the past participle “had” to form the perfect participle “having had,” which indicates that the action of havingbreakfast occurred before the main action of being allowed to play.4、She is such a kind girl that she often______(help) her classmates with their English.Answer: helpsExplanation: The sentence structure indicates that the subject “she” is described as “such a kind girl” and that her kindness is exemplified by her freque nt action of helping classmates with their English. The verb “helps”is used in the simple present tense to describe a habitual or regular action, fitting the context of the sentence.5、Tom suggested that we_______the meeting until next Monday.A. should holdB. heldC. holdD. would hold Answer: CExplanation: In English, when “suggest” is used in a sentence followed by a subordinate clause with “that,” the verb in the subordinate clause should be in the subjunctive mood. However, in modern English, the subjunctive mood is often omitted, and the base form of the verb is used instead. This is called the “mandative subjunctive,” which is used to express a command, request, suggestion, etc. Here, “Tom suggested that we hold the meeting until next Monday”i s the correct form, with “hold” being the base form of the verb. Thus, optionC is correct.6、He always helps me with my math,_______I am grateful to him.A. for whichB. to whichC. of whichD. in which Answer: AExplanation: This sentence is a non-restrictive clause, which means thatthe clause provides additional information about the main clause but is not essential to its meaning. Non-restrictive clauses are often set off by commas and are introduced by relative pronouns such as “which.” In this se ntence, “for which” is used to express the reason for the gratitude, creating a meaning similar to “I am grateful to him for helping me with my math.” Therefore, option A is correct. The other options do not fit the grammatical structure or the meaning of the sentence correctly.7、The project requires that all the computers_______connected to the network regularly.A. wereB. beC. areD. had beenAnswer: BExplanation: 本题考查虚拟语气。

However, the April Fool’s Day of 2014 was quite different for my mom and me.That day my friend Jimmy and I were playing a game. I had dropped down from a bar (横木) many times in the past without ever having a problem, but that day the simple act of dropping to the ground became a nightmare (噩梦). I broke my arm.Jimmy’s dad heard my crying and rushed out to see what was going on. When he saw the problem he quickly put me into his truck and went inside to telephone my mom and let her know he would take me to hospital. As that day was April Fool’s Day, Mom was not buying it and really thought all this w as a big joke. Mom was finally convinced by Jimmy’s mom. When she saw me, she broke down in tears because she felt so bad –she originally thought this was just a big prank (恶作剧).I guess one could compare this to the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Since I had pulled pranks before, it is no wonder that my mom didn’t believe it. I as well as my mom was made to look like a fool that day. We both learned a valuable lesson.1.What happened to the writer on the April Fool’s Day of 2014?A.He dreamed a terrible dream.B.He was hurt by Jimmy.C.He had an accident.D.He fooled his mom with his friend.2.Why did Jimmy’s dad phone the writer’s mom?A.Because he wanted to play a joke on her.B.Because he wanted her to go to the hospital to pay the money.C.Because he wanted to see how deeply she loved her son.D.Because he wanted to inform her of the accident.3.From the passage we can infer that _________.A.the writer’s mom didn’t care much about himB.the writer was a dishonest personC.the writer won’t pull pranks as beforeD.the writer will lose interest in gamesB14、English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.1.Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are______.A.clever B.crazy C.azy D.dull2.According to the passage ______.A.pineapples are the apples on the pine treeB.there should be egg in an eggplantC.sweet-meats and sweetbreads are differentD.boxing rings should be round3.Which of the following is the correct plural?A.Beeth. B.Geese. C.Meese. D.Tooth.4.Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning? A.A wise man and a wise guy.B.Overlook and oversee.C.Quite a lot and quite a few.D.Hot as hell and cold as hell.C15、(A)Ma YunBorn in 1964,Hangzhou Zhejiang The Chairman of Alibaba Group Tu Youyou85 years old , ChinaThe 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine1.Who is the Chairman of Alibaba Group?A.Lang Lang. B.Li Yundi. C.Ma Yun.2.What kind of the Nobel Prize did Tu Youyou receive?A.Physiology or Medicine B.Literature C.Physics3.Where is Tu Youyou from?A.America. B.Japan C.ChinaD16、What will you do if you are in trouble on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to attract the attention of a passing plane.Body languagePilots(飞行员) from different countries understand body languages if they have the correct training. When you put your arms up and down in a straight line, it means, “yes”. When you point down and swing (摇摆) your arm from side to side, it mean s “no”. If you want the pilot to know that it’s safe to land, push your hands out in front of you andbend(弯下) your knees. If you want to say that it’s not safe to land, put your arms up in the air and move them to one side.Start a fireThe smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it's a good way to attract attention. If the weather is dry, it isn’t hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they lose control. Never light a tire unless you’re sure that it can’t spr ead. If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.Ground- to- air marksIt’s a good idea to make some marks, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the marks. If you can’t find any wood, use earth. Some useful marks are:F :“I need food and water”II:“I need medicine.”I:“I am badly hurt.”X:“I can’t move from here”So next time, if you meet this problem and can’t get away from the island, try the advice above.1.Which of the following means “It’s not safe to land”?A.A B.B C.C D.D2.If you are hungry and thirsty, you should draw_________ on the ground.A.F B.II C.I D.X3.From the passage, we can learn that ___________.A.Putting up and down your arms in a straight line means “No”B.Y ou should start a fire when you are sure it will spreadC.It’s a good idea to use flowers and grass to make marks on the groundD.Y our body language, smoke and ground marks are helpful to save you out4.The passage is mainly about _______.A.ways of living on a lonely islandB.ways of asking for help on a lonely islandC.body languages on an islandD.the importance of making marks on an islandE17、With long curly blond hair and an amazing voice, Taylor Swift has stolen the hearts of millions of people around the world.Born on December 13th, 1989, Taylor grew up in Pennsylvania, in the US.

Somebody say s hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically(按字母表的顺序) and use numbers to represent each ofthem, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11="98," meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5="96," whilelove :12+15+22+5="54," and luck: 12+21+3+11="47," a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer(祈祷)? They ca n’t , either.Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Y es, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5="100," a full mark.Different attitudes lead to different ways of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that you will have a change for the better after you have changed your attitude.When you change your manner and become fr iendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces.

One of the most interesting new developments comes from India's biggest company, the Tata Group, which owns Tata Motors. Tata Motors recently bought the high-cost car models Jaguar and Land Rover from American carmaker Ford for 2. 3 billion dollars.But in January, Tata Motors made big news by saying that it would start selling a very small car that costs only 2,500 dollars.The car called the Nano,is designed for India's home market, but its price has caught the attention (注意力)of the world The Nano is the result of a different kind of engineering. Instead of designing things to add to the vehicle (交通工具),engineers thought of ways to remove things. For example, the car has very little storage space. Parts like the steering column, which helps the car to turn, are made of less expensive, lighter materials. As with any lightweight car, the most important thing is to be safe. The car could be very dangerous if it is in an accident. But the Nano does have four doors and five seats. And its price puts it within the reach of millions of people in India.Smaller ears are just one direction (方向)that the car factory is taking. The factory is also producing cars that bring less。
