A．Instead; to attend B．Instead of; to attend C．Instead of; attending D．Instead; attending
【答案】A
【解析】句意：相反，参加这个会议对于他来说是重要的。
考查副词用法及固定句型。instead意为“代替，反而”，作副词用，通常位于句尾，如位于句首时常用逗号和后面隔开，instead在顺接句子中作“代替”讲，而在转折句之中作“然而”讲；instead of意为“代替”，是介宾短语，后面跟名词、代词、动名词。句子中前面没有任何成分了，所以用instead。固定句型“It’s+形容词+for sb. to do sth.”表示“做某事对于某人来说是……”，it为形式主语，动词不定式为真正主语，故选A。
( )22．We all felt ________ because this film was very ________.
A．bored; boring B．boring; bored C．boring; boring D．bored; bored
【答案】A
【解析】句意：我们都觉得很无聊，因为这部电影太无聊了。
考查形容词辨析。bored一般形容人，表示某人自己本身厌烦；boring一般形容物，表示某物令人厌烦。第一个空，主语是we，指人，因此用bored修饰；第二个空，主语是film，指物，因此用boring修饰；故选A。

—________ you’re there, can you get me some milk
A．Though B．Unless C．Until D．While
【答案】D
【解析】句意：——我要去超市。 ——当你去那儿的时候，能给我买些牛奶吗？
考查连词辨析。Though虽然；Unless除非；Until直到；While当……的时候。根据上文“I’m going to the supermarket.”以及下文“can you get me some milk ”可知，语境为：当你去那儿的时候，能给我买些牛奶吗？while强调某时间段内一种情况发生时另一种情况出现。故选D。
( )24．He didn’t do his homework, ________ he watched TV all day.
A．still B．either C．instead D．also
【答案】C
【解析】句意：他没有做作业，而是整天看电视。
考查副词辨析。still仍然；either也，用于否定句；instead替代；also也，用于肯定句。分析空前后句句意可知，空处的词应是instead，替代。故选C。

C．What’s wrong with you D．Could I use your book

考查情景交际。Can you help me你能帮助我吗；What should I do我该怎么办；What’s wrong with you你怎么了；Could I use your book我能用一下你的书吗。根据回答“I lost my English book yesterday”，可知对方是问朱丽叶出了什么事，ABD三项不合语境，故选C。

A．Finally B．Exactly C．Slowly D．Luckily
【答案】D
【解析】句意：——你妹妹在上学的路上从自行车上摔了下来，是吗？——是的，那是真的。幸运的是，她根本没受伤。

考查介词和情态动词。has有，动词； with有，介词；may be可能是，情态动词+动词原形； maybe或许，副词。根据“Who is the woman”可知，此句已有谓语动词，因此用介词with表示“有……”；再者根据“she...Kate’s mother.”可知，此空缺少谓语动词，因此may be符合句意。故选D。
( )32．The classroom is ________ so he walks ________.
A．quiet; quiet B．quiet; quietly C．quietly; quiet D．quietly; quietly
【答案】B
【解析】句意：这个教室很安静，所以他轻轻地走。

Another saying was that a child born on Friday the 13th will be unlucky for life. 67 today, most tall buildings don’t have a 13th Floor.
The number together with Friday, however, didn’t catch people’s eye until the 20th century. In 1907, someone wrote a book called Friday the Thirteenth. The book sold well：nearly 28,000 copies within the first week. In 1916 the book was turned into a film. And then people began to 68 Friday the Thirteenth.

65．句意：今天是13号恰逢星期五，最不吉利的日子。
luckiest最幸运的；happiest最开心的；shortest最短的；unluckiest最不吉利的。根据下文The number 13 has been unlucky for centuries，可知，数字13被认为是不吉利的。空格前有定冠词the，所以用形容词的最高级unluckiest。故选D。
66．句意：据说如果你在恰逢13号的星期五剪头发，你家里有人会死。
no one没人；anyone任何人；someone某人；everyone每个人。根据前文The number 13 has been unlucky for centuries，可知，恰逢13号的星期五是一个不吉利的日子，所以如果你在13号的星期五剪头发，你家里有人会死，所以空格处填someone。故选C。
67．句意：即使在今天，大部分高楼没有13层。
just仅仅；even即使；ever曾；seldom很少。根据前文It was said that…will be unlucky for life，都是在讲述数字13是一个不吉利的数字，可知，空格处所在句子表示“即使在今天，大部分高楼没有13层”，所以空格处填even来加强语气。故选B。
68．句意：然后人们才开始了解恰逢13号的星期五。
ask for要求；know about了解；deal with处理；look after照顾。根据前文The number together with Friday, however, didn’t catch people’s eye until the 20th century“跟礼拜五连在一起的数字，直到20世纪才吸引人们的注意”及In 1916 the book was turned into a film“在1916年，这本书被拍成电影”，可知，人们是从这本书被拍成电影之后才开始了解恰逢13号的星期五的意义，所以空格处填know about。故选B。
69．句意：在美国，每个恰逢13号的星期五都会损失7亿到8亿美元，因为人们不想去旅游，不想买奢侈品和不想经商。
if如果；unless除非；because因为；though尽管。根据句意，前文表示“在美国，每个恰逢13号的星期五都会损失7亿到8亿美元”，下文表示“人们不想去旅游，不想买奢侈品和不想经商”，下文表原因，所以用引导原因状语从句的连词because。故选C。
70．句意：在1939年的那个10月13日恰逢星期五，印第安纳的人们就给所有的黑猫戴上了铃铛，他们认为铃声能驱走坏运气，带来好事。
stop阻止；bring带来；become变成；make使得。根据下文something good could happen“好事会发生”，可知，空格处表示“驱走坏运气”，所以空格处填stop。故选A。

D．根据短文内容回答问题（12分）
When I was young, I had an old neighbor , Dr. Gibbs. He never invited us to play in his yard. But he was a very kind person.
Dr. Gibbs had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants would spoil(毁坏) them. If you watered them, each young tree would grow weaker and weaker. So you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early.
He talked about how watered trees grew shallow(浅的) roots, and how trees that weren't watered had to grow deep roots in search of (寻找)water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important. So he never watered his trees.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. When I came back home, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about 25 years ago. They were very big and strong. I planted some trees a few years later and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
Every night before I go to bed , I check on my two sons. Mostly I hope that their lives will be easy. But now it's time to change my idea. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is get roots that reach deep into the brave heart. When the rains fall and the winds blow, we can face them strongly and won't be beaten down.
78．What was Dr. Gibbs like
______________________________________________________________________________________.
79．Dr. Gibbs never invited the writer to play in his yard, did he
______________________________________________________________________________________.
80．Why do some trees that aren't watered have to grow deep roots
______________________________________________________________________________________.
81．How old are the trees that planted by Dr. Gibbs
______________________________________________________________________________________.
82．Does the writer understand Dr. Gibbs' interesting ideas about planting trees at last
______________________________________________________________________________________.
83．What can we learn from Dr. Gibbs' interesting ideas about planting trees
______________________________________________________________________________________.
【答案】
78．He was a very kind person.
79．No, he didn’t
80．Because they have to look for water under the earth by themselves
81．25 years old
82．Yes, he does
83．We should be strict with children. We shouldn’t spoil our children. ( Other reasonable answers are acceptable.)
【解析】短文主要讲述作者的邻居吉布斯博士有趣的植树理念。作者在文末由植树理念又升华到了自己的育儿理念。
78．句意：吉布斯博士是个什么样的人？根据原文，答案为：He was a very kind person.
79．句意：吉布斯博士从没有邀请作者到他的院子里玩，是吗？
题干是“前否后肯”式反意疑问句，应以事实为依据来回答问题。原文：He never invited us to play in his yard.“他从没有邀请我们到他的院子里玩。”用No，he didn’t来作答，但译作“是的，他没有”。故答案为No, he didn’t。
80．句意：为什么一些没有被浇水的树要长深根呢？
原文：how trees that weren't watered had to grow deep roots in search of (寻找)water under the earth by themselves.没有被浇水的树要靠自己长深根来寻找地下的水份。故答案为Because they have to look for water under the earth by themselves。
81．句意：吉布斯博士种植的树多少岁了？
原文：I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about 25 years ago.我走过他家，看了看25年前我看着他种下的树。由此可知树龄：25年。故答案为25 years old。
82．句意：作者最终理解吉布斯博士有趣的植树理念了吗？
短文最后一段讲述作者将吉布斯博士的植树理念运用到育儿中。由此可知，作者理解了吉布斯博士的植树理念。故答案为Yes, he does。
83．句意：我们可以从吉布斯博士有趣的植树理念中学到什么？
这是一个开放性的问题，答案言之有理即可。参考答案：We should be strict with children. We shouldn’t spoil our children.

Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests.
