32．The way to be happy is to own as few things as possible.

27．画线部分表示地点，故用where提问且大写；此句是一般过去时，put是过去式，实义动词，剩下部分变成一般疑问句时应借助助动词did，后接动词原形put。故答案为(1). Where (2). did。
28．原句意思：他大吼一声，把我们吓得半死。此句改为同义句：他的吼声非常吓人，把我们吓得半死。句型为so …that…如此……以至于……；so修饰形容词frightening（吓人的）。故答案为(1). so (2). frightening。

31．反意疑问句一般遵循“前肯后否”和“前否后肯” 的原则。 前后两部分的人称和动词时态要保持一致。此句的前一部分是肯定句，时态是一般过去时；后一部分应是否定形式，时态也是一般过去时，故用were的否定形式weren’t；前后部分的主语不变。故答案为(1). weren’t (2). you。
32．根据标点符号可知，此句是陈述句。the way to be happy快乐的方法，名词短语作主语；is to own是不定式作表语；as few things as possible尽可能少的东西。结合句意：快乐的方法是拥有尽可能少的东西。故答案为The way to be happy is to own as few things as possible.
【点睛】
反意疑问句是指在陈述句后加一个简短问句，用于征询肯定或否定的意见，或者希望陈述句所说的内容得到证实。反意疑问句的答语应符合事实，事实是肯定的用yes，事实是否定的用no。当反意疑问句的构成形式为“前肯后否”时，回答yes或no与汉语习惯正好相反。这种省略回答yes要翻译成“不，不是”，no要翻译成“是，是的”。
五、阅读单选(共10分)
Body language is communication without words. It includes facial expressions, eyes touching and tone(语气) of voice, as well as the space between two or more people.
One of the most common kinds of body language is gestures. Some children throw their hands up in the air or walk off with heavy feet to show they are angry. Gestures are usually paired up with spoken communication, but they don’t have to be. Each child is different, so it is important to spend time with a child to learn her gestures and meanings.
Another kind of body language is facial expressions. It is easy to know when children like or dislike something. Facial expressions give away what a child is thinking or feeling. Reading facial expressions can help you better understand what a child is thinking or feeling. But if you want to be sure, asking the right questions will be a good way to understand more deeply what she is thinking or feeling.
A child’s use of space depends on her family and cultural environment. If a child is raised in a family that is very physically affectionate, she will be more comfortable with physical contact. However, a child raised in a non-physically affectionate family may be uncomfortable in the same situation. Everyone has personal space, even children. Knowing the differences in different children will help you understand each child.
The tone of a child’s voice will help to decode the message she’s sending. If a child sounds happy, she most probably is. If a child is saying she is happy, but her tone sounds different, you may want to ask a few questions to see if she is being honest.
33．What does the first paragraph mainly tell us
A．What body language is. B．Why body language is important.
C．How children usually communicate. D．How parents understand body language.
34．What can we learn from the text
A．Gestures are hard to understand.
B．Personal space depends on the family and cultural environment where one is raised.
C．Gestures are not so common as facial expressions.
D．Personal space is paired up with spoken communication.
35．Parents are advised to know for sure about children’s feeling by ________.
A．communicating with them with gestures B．reading their facial expressions
C．playing with them often D．asking them questions
36．This passage mainly talks about ________.
A．the importance of body language B．children’s body language
C．the definition of body language D．the reasons for using body language
37．We can probably find this passage from a/an ________.

My Favourite Invention
As we all know, there are many inventions in the world. They changed our world and our ways of life. My favourite invention is mobile phone.
The mobile phone brings great benefits to our lives. It’s useful and convenient. First, people can communicate with each other at any time. Second, it can be used not only for fun but also for study. Last but not least, we can do online shopping if we have no time to go to the market.
However, the invention also brings some problems. First, it gives off harmful electric wave radiation. Second, it will have a bad influence on study and life if we don’t use it properly.
In a word, mobile phone does more good than harm to us. It is still the greatest invention in my eyes.

五、阅读单选(共10分)
Body language is communication without words. It includes facial expressions, eyes touching and tone(语气) of voice, as well as the space between two or more people.
One of the most common kinds of body language is gestures. Some children throw their hands up in the air or walk off with heavy feet to show they are angry. Gestures are usually paired up with spoken communication, but they don’t have to be. Each child is different, so it is important to spend time with a child to learn her gestures and meanings.
Another kind of body language is facial expressions. It is easy to know when children like or dislike something. Facial expressions give away what a child is thinking or feeling. Reading facial expressions can help you better understand what a child is thinking or feeling. But if you want to be sure, asking the right questions will be a good way to understand more deeply what she is thinking or feeling.
A child’s use of space depends on her family and cultural environment. If a child is raised in a family that is very physically affectionate, she will be more comfortable with physical contact. However, a child raised in a non-physically affectionate family may be uncomfortable in the same situation. Everyone has personal space, even children. Knowing the differences in different children will help you understand each child.
The tone of a child’s voice will help to decode the message she’s sending. If a child sounds happy, she most probably is. If a child is saying she is happy, but her tone sounds different, you may want to ask a few questions to see if she is being honest.
33．What does the first paragraph mainly tell us
A．What body language is. B．Why body language is important.
C．How children usually communicate. D．How parents understand body language.
34．What can we learn from the text
A．Gestures are hard to understand.
B．Personal space depends on the family and cultural environment where one is raised.
C．Gestures are not so common as facial expressions.
D．Personal space is paired up with spoken communication.
35．Parents are advised to know for sure about children’s feeling by ________.
A．communicating with them with gestures B．reading their facial expressions
C．playing with them often D．asking them questions
36．This passage mainly talks about ________.
A．the importance of body language B．children’s body language
C．the definition of body language D．the reasons for using body language
37．We can probably find this passage from a/an ________.
