“Wow，” Gus cried out，“Jam (果酱)！”
Just in front of him，there was a jam stall that sold all kinds of home-made jam．But the only kind Gus wanted was strawberry，so he bought a jar．He couldn't help but taste the jam immediately．It was OK，he frowed and shook his head，but never as good as Rose's，whose jam was just magic．
Rose was his neighbour，an elderly lady who lived alone but liked company now and again．Her doorbell was usually too quiet before Gus and his mum moved to the village after his father's death．Gus often rang her doorbell and asked whether she needed anything from the supermarket as he and his mother were going to town．In return，Rose would often give Gus a jar of jam．Gus was amazed how jam could be so delicious，so whenever free he would be at Rose's home watching her make the super jam．
Suddenly，an idea struck Gus．Probably he could try that to make some money and help his mum．He then bought a bag of potatoes for Rose for her kind offer of wonderful jam．
The next morning，Gus rang Rose's doorbell．_________________________

A
First it was jogging．Then aerobics (有氧运动)．Not too long ago，Americans discovered race walking．
Now Americans are into a new fitness craze．They're taking up bicycling．Over hills and down mountainsides and across quiet country roads，Americans are busily rolling along．
The number of adults who ride for fitness is around 17 million，an increase of 70 percent over four years ago．Twice as many women as men are coming to the sport．Americans are falling in love with biking because it has speed，the benefits of jogging and beautiful scenery．
Bicycling is a very appropriate sport，which is important to people who injured their knees while jogging or whose joints are aching from aerobics．And biking is a real awakening for people who have been into race walking in the past．Race walking is as dull as watching paint dry．
The most popular kind of bicycle for people who are new to the sport is the mountain bike，which has a fixed frame with wide tires and upright handles．
Mountain bikes also have many gears (齿轮) to make them easier to climb hills．About 5 million Americans ride mountain bikes，compared with 200，000 who rode them only five years ago．
Costs range from about $130 for a bottom-of-the-line bicycle to more than $2，700 for an expensive bicycle．
Mountain biking has attracted some people who race down the sides of mountains like a bat out of hell．But most riders ride slowly and they rarely venture far from home．
The biking craze has brought an unexpected profit(盈利) to clothing and bicycle accessory (附属品) makers．Last year，bikers paid $630 million for biking clothes and accessories．
Bicycling seems likely to continue its fantastic growth．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国兴起了骑自行车的运动。

D．Americans are taking up bicycling．
A [推理判断题。根据第四段可知，作者把骑自行车运动和竞走进行了比较，认为骑自行车对那些过去参加过竞走的人来说是一个真正的觉醒。再根据倒数第三段可知，山地骑行风驰电掣吸引了不少人，对比之下竞走像看着油漆变干一样乏味，这正是因为竞走是慢速运动，用油漆变干来比喻其速度慢。故选A。]

D [词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“more than $2，700 for an expensive bicycle”可知，此处指自行车的价格由最便宜的130美元到最贵的2 700美元不等，bottom-of-the-line应意为“最便宜的”。故选D。]
4．What is the main idea of the article？
A．Riding a bicycle is one of the most dangerous sports in America．
B．Americans are not rolling along．
C．Bicycling is the latest fitness craze to hit America．
D．Most people in America want to own a hand-made bicycle that can cost more than $2，700．
√
C [主旨大意题。结合全文内容可知，现在美国人掀起了一股新的健身热潮，他们骑自行车锻炼，并且人数持续增长。即骑自行车成了美国最新的健身热潮。故选C。]
B
In the UK，there is a popular route for cyclists：the road from Land's End in England to John O'Groats in Scotland，about 874 miles long．It covers almost the full length of Great Britain．The 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route．
Chandler took 20 days to finish the challenge．Each day，he cycled between 40 to 60 miles．He spent six hours on his mountain bikedaily．Chandler had to push through rainy and windy days．Cycling uphill was also hard．“It was much harder than I thought．I wasn't expecting so many hills and how busy the roads were，”Chandler said．“But if you put your mind to anything，then no matter how big，you can do it．”
Chandler first thought of trying the route when he read an article about it two years ago．Later，as his father's 50th birthday came around，he decided to go for it．He was already used to cycling around his village and to school before starting his journey．
During his ride，Chandler raised 600 pounds for Smile Train，a children's organisation that pays for treatment for children in developing countries who have cleft lips (兔唇)．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了少年Laurence Chandler完成了一次困难重重的骑行，并为Smile Train组织筹集了善款。
5．What do we know about Laurence Chandler？

D．He is a green hand in cycling．
A [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route．”可知，Laurence Chandler是一名自行车运动的爱好者。故选A。]
√
6．What is suggested from paragraph 2？
A．Chandler was challenged by the trip．
B．Few people chose to cycle the route．
C．The journey was really disappointing．
D．Chandler rode the same distance every day．
A [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“It was much harder than I thought．”可知，这段路程超出了Chandler的预期，他受到了挑战。故选A。]
√
7．What helped Chandler decide to try the route？
A．A related article．
B．The voluntary work．
C．His father's birthday．
D．The disabled children．
C [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Later，as his father's 50th birthday came around，he decided to go for it．”可知，Chandler决定尝试这条骑行路线是因为父亲的生日。故选C。]
√
8．What's the best title for the text？
A．A Teenager Finishing a Great Trip
B．A Popular Cycling Route in the UK
C．A Road Leading England to Scotland
D．A Children's Organisation for Cyclists
√
A [标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“The 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route．”及最后一段“During his ride，Chandler raised 600 pounds for Smile Train，a children's organisation that pays for treatment for children in developing countries who have cleft lips．”可知，Chandler的骑行具有重大意义，因此“一位少年完成了一次伟大的骑行”适合作为本文标题。故选A。]

Dear Tom，
It has been a long time since I wrote to you．
In December，we had a sports meeting in our school．I participated in the 3，000-metre race．I managed to stand at the starting line for the final．Unfortunately，I fell behind others very soon．I tried to run faster，but fell down to the ground，with blood running out of my knees．I struggled to my feet and kept on running．Although I felt badly painful，I ran to the end．As you can see，I lost the match．I'm not regretful because I believe it's more important to keep to the end．
I'm looking forward to hearing from you．
Yours，
Li Hua
Ⅲ．读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
With my parents away on a business trip,I planned to spend a quiet weekend at home．But when my friend Chickie and Dom,invited me to join them for an afternoon at the beach,I was attracted．“I had an asthma (哮喘) attack yesterday,and it really tired me out，”I warned them．“So I'll probably just lie out on the sand．”
A few hours later,relaxing under a sun umbrella after a picnic lunch,I was glad I'd come．Chickie and Dom went for a swim．They liked to go far out into the sea．I was bathed in the sun until I got too hot,then took a walk down to the shore．
For a few minutes I just let the waves lap around my legs．The ocean was smooth as glass．I could float on my back as if I were in a swimming pool,I thought,and did．I closed my eyes and enjoyed the gentle rocking．
After some time,I opened my eyes and looked around．How did I get so far from shore？I hadn't realised how quickly the sea was carrying me．
I started swimming as quick and hard as I could．Even so I wasn't getting any closer,and it was becoming harder to breathe．I turned around,looking for help,but I seemed to be completely alone in the water．Far off on the sand I could see people packing up their belongings．It must be nearly five o'clock,I thought．That's when the lifeguard went off duty．
A wave slapped (拍打) my face and I swallowed salt water．My chest was already burning as I struggled to breathe．In desperation I raised one hand and waved it to get the lifeguard's attention．“I'll never last till he reaches me，”I thought．“They're all too far away．I can't get myself heard here and nobody even sees me！”
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Fortunately,two young men happened to swim by．___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Chickie and Dom were waiting anxiously on the beach．_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
[参考范文]
Fortunately, two young men happened to swim by．“Help，”I managed to whisper．One of them grabbed my arm．The other grabbed his arm．Together they pulled me towards the shore．The lifeguard rushed into the water with his board．He tried to convince me that the water was shallow so that I could just stand．However,I shook my head．I was too exhausted to stand,much less walk．They laid me over the board．“You were caught in a tide，”the lifeguard said as the three of the man carried me onto the sand．
Chickie and Dom were waiting anxiously on the beach．They were scared when they saw me being carried out of the water．I showed my sincere gratitude to the two young men who saved me．And the lifeguard warned us to be careful while swimming and never swim alone．Chickie and Dom took care of me and made sure I was okay．It was a quiet reminder that one should always be careful and never underestimate the power of nature,even on a supposedly gentle day at the beach．

Ⅲ．读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
With my parents away on a business trip，I planned to spend a quiet weekend at home．But when my friend Chickie and Dom，invited me to join them for an afternoon at the beach，I was attracted．“I had an asthma (哮喘) attack yesterday，and it really tired me out，” I warned them．“So I'll probably just lie out on the sand．”
A few hours later，relaxing under a sun umbrella after a picnic lunch，I was glad I'd come．Chickie and Dom went for a swim．They liked to go far out into the sea．I was bathed in the sun until I got too hot，then took a walk down to the shore．
For a few minutes I just let the waves lap around my legs．The ocean was smooth as glass．I could float on my back as if I were in a swimming pool，I thought，and did．I closed my eyes and enjoyed the gentle rocking．
After some time，I opened my eyes and looked around．How did I get so far from shore I hadn't realised how quickly the sea was carrying me．
I started swimming as quick and hard as I could．Even so I wasn't getting any closer，and it was becoming harder to breathe．I turned around，looking for help，but I seemed to be completely alone in the water．Far off on the sand I could see people packing up their belongings．It must be nearly five o'clock，I thought．That's when the lifeguard went off duty．
A wave slapped (拍打) my face and I swallowed salt water．My chest was already burning as I struggled to breathe．In desperation I raised one hand and waved it to get the lifeguard's attention．“I'll never last till he reaches me，” I thought．“They're all too far away．I can't get myself heard here and nobody even sees me！”
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。

Dear Tom，
It has been a long time since I wrote to you．
In December，we had a sports meeting in our school．I participated in the 3，000-metre race．I managed to stand at the starting line for the final．Unfortunately，I fell behind others very soon．I tried to run faster，but fell down to the ground，with blood running out of my knees．I struggled to my feet and kept on running．Although I felt badly painful，I ran to the end．As you can see，I lost the match．I'm not regretful because I believe it's more important to keep to the end．
I'm looking forward to hearing from you．
Yours，
Li Hua
Ⅲ．[参考范文]
Fortunately，two young men happened to swim by．“Help，”I managed to whisper．One of them grabbed my arm．The other grabbed his arm．Together they pulled me towards the shore．The lifeguard rushed into the water with his board．He tried to convince me that the water was shallow so that I could just stand．However，I shook my head．I was too exhausted to stand，much less walk．They laid me over the board．“You were caught in a tide，”the lifeguard said as the three of the man carried me onto the sand．
Chickie and Dom were waiting anxiously on the beach．They were scared when they saw me being carried out of the water．I showed my sincere gratitude to the two young men who saved me．And the lifeguard warned us to be careful while swimming and never swim alone．Chickie and Dom took care of me and made sure I was okay．It was a quiet reminder that one should always be careful and never underestimate the power of nature，even on a supposedly gentle day at the beach．
Ⅰ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国兴起了骑自行车的运动。
1．A [推理判断题。根据第四段可知，作者把骑自行车运动和竞走进行了比较，认为骑自行车对那些过去参加过竞走的人来说是一个真正的觉醒。再根据倒数第三段可知，山地骑行风驰电掣吸引了不少人，对比之下竞走像看着油漆变干一样乏味，这正是因为竞走是慢速运动，用油漆变干来比喻其速度慢。故选A。]
2．B [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The biking craze has brought an unexpected profit to clothing and bicycle accessory makers．”可知，骑自行车热给自行车附属品制造商带来了极大的利益。故选B。]
3．D [词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“more than $2，700 for an expensive bicycle”可知，此处指自行车的价格由最便宜的130美元到最贵的2 700美元不等，bottom-of-the-line应意为“最便宜的”。故选D。]
4．C [主旨大意题。结合全文内容可知，现在美国人掀起了一股新的健身热潮，他们骑自行车锻炼，并且人数持续增长。即骑自行车成了美国最新的健身热潮。故选C。]
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了少年Laurence Chandler完成了一次困难重重的骑行，并为Smile Train组织筹集了善款。
5．A [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route．”可知，Laurence Chandler是一名自行车运动的爱好者。故选A。]
6．A [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“It was much harder than I thought．”可知，这段路程超出了Chandler的预期，他受到了挑战。故选A。]
7．C [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Later，as his father's 50th birthday came around，he decided to go for it．”可知，Chandler决定尝试这条骑行路线是因为父亲的生日。故选C。]
8．A [标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“The 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route．”及最后一段“During his ride，Chandler raised 600 pounds for Smile Train，a children's organisation that pays for treatment for children in developing countries who have cleft lips．”可知，Chandler的骑行具有重大意义，因此“一位少年完成了一次伟大的骑行”适合作为本文标题。故选A。]
