It was my 21st birthday and I wanted to have an unforgettable night. So I arranged to have a party at this famous hotel. It was a warm evening in the middle of August, but because it was raining heavily outside we had to stay in the hotel all night. There were a lot of guests at the party and the room was packed. I was dancing when I saw the smoke. People began to panic, but there were so many of us that we couldn't get out quickly. Soon the room was full of smoke. I managed to open a window and get out of the burning building. The fire fighters arrived shortly after, but it took a long time for them to put out the fire. Luckily, all the guests got out in time. Some of them had to go to hospital because of burns and breathing problems. Fortunately, the fire fighters had put out the fire before it spread to the rest of the hotel. However, the room where the party was held was completely destroyed. I was told later that it was because the building had been struck by lightning. Can you believe it
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Deciduous forests (落叶林) are home to many wild animals.The development and expansion of human presence in the forests has caused many of their native species to become endangered.
Giant Panda
The giant panda, one of the most recognizable endangered species, is a large, docile species of bear native to the deciduous forest of southern and eastern China, Myanmar and Vietnam.Because of its limited diet — the panda's main source of food is bamboo — the species is limited in its habitat to areas where bamboo is available.Now the species only can be found today in 20 small patches of forest at the western edge of its historic range.
Gray and Red Wolves
The gray wolf, which once ranged from the East Coast of the United States to the West, and south to Mexico, now has a population of only 5,000 in the lower 48 states, mostly in the Rocky Mountains.The smaller red wolf, native to the southeastern United States, was declared extinct in the wild in 1980, though conservation efforts have reintroduced small captive populations to the wild in California.
Red Crowned Crane
The red crowned crane is native to Japan, Korea, Russia and eastern China.Agricultural expansion and deforestation (森林砍伐) in these areas have removed a great number of the marshes and forests that are the crane's primary habitats.For a time, the crane was thought to have completely disappeared from Japan, but the recent discovery of cranes in Japanese marshlands has restarted conservation efforts.Today, around 2,500 cranes live in the wild, including 1,000 in Japan.
European Mink
Native to Europe, the European mink ranges from France in the west to Finland in the north, Russia in the east and the Balkans in the south.Destruction of the mink's aquatic (水的) habitat and use of the species for fur have caused dramatic drops in the species' population, which has been reduced by 85 percent since the mid 19th century.
语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。落叶林是许多野生动物的家园,然而人类在森林中的活动却导致一些本土物种濒临灭绝,文章介绍了其中的四种动物。

23.Which is mentioned as the reason for the decline of European minks
A.The loss of their natural food.
B.The hunting of human beings.
C.Drought and forest fires.
D.Excessive deforestation.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据European Mink部分中的“use of the species for fur have caused dramatic drops in the species' population”,可知,人类为了获取欧洲水貂的毛皮而猎杀水貂,导致其种群数量急剧下降。
B
I'm standing in a class of wild 14 year old girls as they throw paper and howl (大声叫喊) with laughter.They won't listen to me.
I was a young girl of 22 and I didn't know what I was doing.I never wanted to teach.I wanted to be a writer.But when I arrived in London, they were short of teachers.
My efforts at teaching were hopeless.When the bell finally rang, I rushed to the staff room, red with anger.The other teachers weren't surprised.“That's 4B, the worst class in the school.” one said.
I feared our next meeting, but I couldn't give up.I needed the job, so I gave up formal lessons.Instead, I brought topics for class discussions.One of the liveliest talks was about the arguments they had with their parents.They paid attention and shared about their lives.I was very interested, so I had them write about themselves.Most wrote about families with little money and big problems.As time went on, their articles became a bridge between us.I admired their humor, toughness and insight (洞察力), and I thought they appreciated my interest in their lives.
The musical My Fair Lady was playing in the West End, but they had never seen a live stage performance.I asked if they'd like to see the musical, but they thought I was joking.No teacher had ever suggested taking them out.A few weeks later, 4B and I were sitting in a theater.They loved the music, the costumes and the characters.It was the highlight of their year, and they talked about it for days.
Near the end of the term, someone knocked on the door of the staff room.The two most rebellious girls in 4B were there with flowers.I was proud to know I had touched their lives, and they had also touched mine.I enjoyed teaching and getting along with teenagers.
When I returned to Australia several years later, I still wanted to be a writer.For the first time in my life, I stopped dreaming and started writing.My first story was titled My Fair Ladies.Teaching wasn't the end of my writing career, but it was the beginning.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。“我”刚当老师时面对一个混乱的课堂,后来“我”走进她们的生活与她们交谈。随着时间的流逝,“我”与学生的关系改善了。“我”想当作家,与孩子们相处的经历成为“我”的写作素材。

If you go into the forest with friends,stay with them always.If you don't,you may get lost.If you really get lost,this is what you should do.Sit down and stay where you are.Don't try to find your friends — let them find you by staying in one place.
There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you.Give them a signal by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times.Stop.Then shout or whistle three times.Any signal given three times is a call for help.
Keep up the shouting or whistling always three times together.When people hear you,they will know that you are not just making noise for fun.They will let you know that they have heard your signal.They will give you two shouts or two whistles or two gunshots.When someone gives a signal,it is an answer to a call for help.
If you don't think that you will get help before night comes,try to make a little house — cover up the holes with branches(树枝) with lots of leaves.Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.
What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water?You will have to leave your little branch house to look for a river.Don't just walk away.Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back.
The most important thing to do when you are lost is stay in one place.

You cannot judge a book by looking at its cover! That's what a group of parents and students in Hangzhou has found out this term.
When they came to school in September, the students were shocked to learn that their class teacher was to be a P.E.teacher.How could someone who teaches table tennis and basketball know anything about academics Their parents were equally worried and pressured the school to replace “Miss Muscle” with a “Miss Brain”. However, the principal (校长) did not give in to the pressure and now the parents and students are happy that the school firmly insisted.
After three months, the P.E.teacher, whose name is actually Miss Su, has turned out to be a wonderful class teacher.She is intelligent, kind and helpful.She is a good leader who keeps her students active in their studies and participate in school activities.And she has won the parents over with her real caring for their children.In other words, Miss Su, the P.E.teacher, is “pretty extraordinary”.
The early negative reaction against Miss Su is an example of bias (偏见).A “bias” is wrong in thinking that has an influence on a person's opinions and decisions.For example, in business, tall men are more likely to be bosses.In the United States, anyone who is above 190 centimeters tall can expect to have a higher salary and to get more promotions than his shorter co workers.Similarly, women have a difficult time climbing the career ladder because their bosses (mostly men!) think that women lack leadership skills and the necessary toughness to make difficult decisions.Neither of these opinions is based on facts or the talents of the individual.They're just bias.
语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述杭州某中学的家长对体育老师当班主任态度的转变,提出了我们不能“以貌取人”,即不能带着偏见来判断一个人。

D.They were interested.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Their parents were equally worried and pressured the school to replace “Miss Muscle” with a “Miss Brain”.可知,孩子的父母很担心,并给学校施压,希望用教文化科目的老师代替教体育的老师。故选C项。
33.Why is Miss Su considered to be “pretty extraordinary”?
A.Because she is an excellent P.E.teacher.
B.Because she was finally removed.
C.Because she really cared about her students.
D.Because the headmaster was proved to be wrong.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的And she has won the parents over with her real caring for their children.In other words, Miss Su, the P.E.teacher, is“pretty extraordinary”.可知,因为苏老师对孩子的关爱,家长们认为她是一位优秀的老师。故选C项。
34.The examples are given in the last paragraph to show ________.
A.tall men are usually excellent
B.people are often judged with bias
C.opinions should be based on facts
D.women lack leadership skills
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的For example, in business, tall men ... think that women lack leadership skills and the necessary toughness to make difficult decisions.可推测,这些例子主要是为了说明人们常常被带着偏见来判断。故选B项。
35.What's the author's attitude towards the bias
A.Disagreeable. B.Acceptable.
C.Careless. D.Curious.
解析:选A 观点态度题。根据最后一段中的Neither of these opinions is based on facts or the talents of the individual.They're just bias.可推测,作者不赞成带着偏见判断一个人。故选A项。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Getting to School
Here is information about the different ways of getting your child to school safely.
·__36__
Walking is a great way to get to school — it's healthy,free and doesn't create pollution.It also reduces traffic congestion (交通堵塞) during the school run.
__37__.Once they know their routes and can cross roads safely,they can walk by themselves or with friends.
But younger children need to be accompanied (陪伴) by an adult, especially if there are busy roads.If you can't walk your children to school they might be able to join a “walking bus”.__38__.Even if you can walk your children to school, a walking bus enables you to share the responsibility with other parents and frees up a bit of extra time.
If you would like to see a walking bus in your area,talk to other parents and staff at your children's school to see if you could set one up together.
·Cycling to school
Cycling is another great way to get to school.However, young people aged between 11 and 15 are more likely to be killed or injured on the roads than any other groups.__39__.
If your children cycle to school,make sure their bikes are in good working order,and that they wear helmets (头盔) and reflective jackets.Work out the best route with the least traffic.
Find out about cycle training, which should be provided free by your local authority.__40__.
A.Walking to school
B.Ask your children's school for details
C.So they need to be aware of the dangers
D.Your children may be fit for free school transport
E.Walking to school also gives older children independence
F.This is a group of children walking to school with at least two adults
G.If walking or cycling isn't possible,there are several ways of getting to school on roads
语篇解读:中小学生在上学和回家的路上与成年人一道奔波于拥挤的人流和车流中,一旦发生不测,受伤的常是他们。上下学路上,学生的安全问题如何解决?本文提出了有益的建议。

38.选F 该空前面提到walking bus的概念,后面提到a walking bus的积极作用。由此可推测出,该空所填内容应承上启下,选项F符合此处语境。
39.选C 选项C中的关键信息the dangers指代的就是上文所提到的be killed or injured on the roads。故此处答案为选项C。
40.选B 选项B中的关键信息details涉及上文所提到的cycle training。故此处答案为选项B。

56.anxiety 考查词性转换。作者既焦虑又害怕,空处和fear并列,又因为空前是介词with,所以此处应填名词形式anxiety。
57.were 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。本句的主语是Everyone's eyes,谓语动词应用复数;且此处讲的是过去的事情,所以用一般过去时。
58.paying 考查非谓语动词。介词without后面跟动词要用其动名词形式。
59.me 考查代词。本句中谓语动词comforted后缺宾语,所以应该用I的宾格me。
60.produced 考查非谓语动词。根据空后的by可知,这里应使用过去分词produced作后置定语。
61.confused 考查形容词。be confused about ...对……感到困惑。
62.rang 考查动词的时态。根据“I went to my next class”可知,这里也要使用一般过去时。
63.fourth 考查数词。根据第一段第二句话中的first和second可知,这里应该使用序数词。
64.on 考查介词。on one's way to ...在去……的路上。
65.happily 考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰动词。

Wednesday September 1, 2021Sunny
Now, my high school life has been on for a week.High school life gave me the feeling that there was very much free time.Many need ourselves to make use of the free time to arrange them.
Firstly,I make a plan every day,and follow it strictly.Before going to bed at night,I will check whether I have finished it.If not,I'll give myself a little punishment,such as playing less computer games on the weekend.Secondly,I'll prepare the second day course after finishing my homework.
In a word,I will often summarize my learning to find problems a period later.And if I do it well,I will reward myself.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Deciduous forests (落叶林) are home to many wild animals.The development and expansion of human presence in the forests has caused many of their native species to become endangered.
Giant Panda
The giant panda, one of the most recognizable endangered species, is a large, docile species of bear native to the deciduous forest of southern and eastern China, Myanmar and Vietnam.Because of its limited diet — the panda's main source of food is bamboo — the species is limited in its habitat to areas where bamboo is available.Now the species only can be found today in 20 small patches of forest at the western edge of its historic range.
Gray and Red Wolves
The gray wolf, which once ranged from the East Coast of the United States to the West, and south to Mexico, now has a population of only 5,000 in the lower 48 states, mostly in the Rocky Mountains.The smaller red wolf, native to the southeastern United States, was declared extinct in the wild in 1980, though conservation efforts have reintroduced small captive populations to the wild in California.
Red Crowned Crane
The red crowned crane is native to Japan, Korea, Russia and eastern China.Agricultural expansion and deforestation (森林砍伐) in these areas have removed a great number of the marshes and forests that are the crane's primary habitats.For a time, the crane was thought to have completely disappeared from Japan, but the recent discovery of cranes in Japanese marshlands has restarted conservation efforts.Today, around 2,500 cranes live in the wild, including 1,000 in Japan.
European Mink
Native to Europe, the European mink ranges from France in the west to Finland in the north, Russia in the east and the Balkans in the south.Destruction of the mink's aquatic (水的) habitat and use of the species for fur have caused dramatic drops in the species' population, which has been reduced by 85 percent since the mid 19th century.
21.What has caused the wild animals to become endangered
A.Global warming.
B.International trade.
C.Environmental pollution.
D.The invasion of mankind.
22.Which species is native to North America
A.European minks.
B.Red wolves.
C.Red crowned cranes.
D.Giant pandas.
23.Which is mentioned as the reason for the decline of European minks
A.The loss of their natural food.
B.The hunting of human beings.
C.Drought and forest fires.
D.Excessive deforestation.
B
I'm standing in a class of wild 14 year old girls as they throw paper and howl (大声叫喊) with laughter.They won't listen to me.
I was a young girl of 22 and I didn't know what I was doing.I never wanted to teach.I wanted to be a writer.But when I arrived in London, they were short of teachers.
My efforts at teaching were hopeless.When the bell finally rang, I rushed to the staff room, red with anger.The other teachers weren't surprised.“That's 4B, the worst class in the school.” one said.
I feared our next meeting, but I couldn't give up.I needed the job, so I gave up formal lessons.Instead, I brought topics for class discussions.One of the liveliest talks was about the arguments they had with their parents.They paid attention and shared about their lives.I was very interested, so I had them write about themselves.Most wrote about families with little money and big problems.As time went on, their articles became a bridge between us.I admired their humor, toughness and insight (洞察力), and I thought they appreciated my interest in their lives.
The musical My Fair Lady was playing in the West End, but they had never seen a live stage performance.I asked if they'd like to see the musical, but they thought I was joking.No teacher had ever suggested taking them out.A few weeks later, 4B and I were sitting in a theater.They loved the music, the costumes and the characters.It was the highlight of their year, and they talked about it for days.
Near the end of the term, someone knocked on the door of the staff room.The two most rebellious girls in 4B were there with flowers.I was proud to know I had touched their lives, and they had also touched mine.I enjoyed teaching and getting along with teenagers.
When I returned to Australia several years later, I still wanted to be a writer.For the first time in my life, I stopped dreaming and started writing.My first story was titled My Fair Ladies.Teaching wasn't the end of my writing career, but it was the beginning.
24.How were the author's students at the beginning
A.Rude and selfish. B.Wild and unpleasant.
C.Frightening and violent. D.Tough and stupid.
25.What happened after the students began to write articles
A.They had fewer arguments with their parents.
B.They gradually showed interest in their lives.
C.Their writing skills improved with the author's help.
D.The relationship between the author and her students improved.
26.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs
A.The author has become a famous writer.
B.The author was popular with her students' parents.
C.The author's teaching experiences enriched her writing.
D.The author started to write because she was bored with teaching.
27.Which might be the best title for the passage
A.Writing Builds bridges
B.Happiness Needs Devotion
C.Success Depends on Dreams
D.Confidence Makes Great Changes

If you go into the forest with friends,stay with them always.If you don't,you may get lost.If you really get lost,this is what you should do.Sit down and stay where you are.Don't try to find your friends — let them find you by staying in one place.

If you don't think that you will get help before night comes,try to make a little house — cover up the holes with branches(树枝) with lots of leaves.Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.
What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water?You will have to leave your little branch house to look for a river.Don't just walk away.Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back.

You cannot judge a book by looking at its cover! That's what a group of parents and students in Hangzhou has found out this term.
When they came to school in September, the students were shocked to learn that their class teacher was to be a P.E.teacher.How could someone who teaches table tennis and basketball know anything about academics Their parents were equally worried and pressured the school to replace “Miss Muscle” with a “Miss Brain”. However, the principal (校长) did not give in to the pressure and now the parents and students are happy that the school firmly insisted.
After three months, the P.E.teacher, whose name is actually Miss Su, has turned out to be a wonderful class teacher.She is intelligent, kind and helpful.She is a good leader who keeps her students active in their studies and participate in school activities.And she has won the parents over with her real caring for their children.In other words, Miss Su, the P.E.teacher, is “pretty extraordinary”.
The early negative reaction against Miss Su is an example of bias (偏见).A “bias” is wrong in thinking that has an influence on a person's opinions and decisions.For example, in business, tall men are more likely to be bosses.In the United States, anyone who is above 190 centimeters tall can expect to have a higher salary and to get more promotions than his shorter co workers.Similarly, women have a difficult time climbing the career ladder because their bosses (mostly men!) think that women lack leadership skills and the necessary toughness to make difficult decisions.Neither of these opinions is based on facts or the talents of the individual.They're just bias.
32.What seemed to be the parents' early reaction to Miss Su
A.They were excited.
B.They were amazed.
C.They were worried.
D.They were interested.
33.Why is Miss Su considered to be “pretty extraordinary”?
A.Because she is an excellent P.E.teacher.
B.Because she was finally removed.
C.Because she really cared about her students.
D.Because the headmaster was proved to be wrong.
34.The examples are given in the last paragraph to show ________.
A.tall men are usually excellent
B.people are often judged with bias
C.opinions should be based on facts
D.women lack leadership skills
35.What's the author's attitude towards the bias
A.Disagreeable. B.Acceptable.
C.Careless. D.Curious.
