Ⅲ. 任务型阅读(40分)
A
　　Do you obey the rules in your school How do you like your school rules A lot of school rules are similar around the world, but some are different. Every school has its own rules.
There are some rules in Japanese schools. The students are not allowed to dye(染) their hair and should keep the hair black. They are not allowed to wear earrings, either. Almost all schools required(要求) students to wear uniforms in the past but now half of the schools require uniforms. The students feel happy to wear all kinds of clothes. The students mustn’t be late for school. If they are late, they can’t get into the school gate because the school gate is closed. In Japan, students are not allowed to have part-time jobs because they may not concentrate(集中注意力) on their study.
American schools have their own rules. For example, in Morton High School, students are not allowed to choose their own clothes. They must get to school and leave school on time. They must wear sports shoes in gym class. They should keep quiet on the school bus. In America, students can have part-time jobs in their free time.
短文内容,回答下列问题(每题答案不超过8个词)。
26.Why are the students not allowed to have part-time jobs in Japan

27.What must the students in Morton High School wear in gym class

28.There must be some rules in your school. Give one example, please.

B
阅读短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
　　As teenagers(青少年), you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.
　　Once you find a dream, what do you do with it 29.　　　　 Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge(挑战).
　　You may think you’re not very good at any school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. 30.　　　
　　In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
　　31.　　　　 Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.
32.　　　　 There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. 33.　　　　
A.This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.
B.Don’t let it leave your heart.
C.Do you ever try to make your dream real
D.Everyone is able to make his dream come true.
E.Never give up your dream.
F.What is your dream
G.These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream.
答案
Unit 2 单元练习
Ⅰ.1.D　考查冠词用法。句意：虽然吉尔是一个八岁的男孩，但是他下棋非常好。8 year old是以元音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词an；一日三餐、球类、棋类运动前，不加定冠词the。
2．C　考查副词比较级的用法。句意：“你的笔记很漂亮。”“谢谢，我比以前写得更认真一些。”than是比较级的标志，排除A和D两项；修饰动词write用副词carefully。
3．A　考查动词短语辨析。look through意为“浏览”；look around意为“四处看”；look after意为“照顾”；look down upon意为“看不起”。由句意“如果你想知道更多关于宇宙的事，请________《时间简史》这本书。”可知此空用“浏览”符合语境。
4．B　考查主谓一致。句意：操场的左边是图书馆。里面有很多书和电脑。第一句主语the library是单数名词，谓语应用单数形式is；第二句主语books是复数名词，谓语动词用复数形式are，故选B。
5．D　考查形容词最高级的用法。句意：我奶奶是个很好的人，是我认识的最好的人之一。此题考查“one of＋the＋形容词的最高级＋可数名词复数”，意为“最……的之一”。
6．C　考查固定搭配。句意：“你上个星期天上午干什么了？”“我花了两个小时读书。”因为主语是人，应用spend… on/doing sth 结构表示“某人花费……时间做某事”。
7．C　考查代词的用法。句意：我不喜欢这件T恤的样式。请给我看另一个。either意为“(两者中的)任何一个”；neither意为“两者都不”；another意为“(三者或三者以上的)另一个”；other意为“其他的”，常修饰可数名词复数。句意可知选C。
8．C　考查疑问短语辨析。句意：“那个女孩在那边等了多久公交车了？”“半个小时。”how often意为“多久一次”；how many意为“多少”，后接可数名词复数；how long意为“多长时间”；how soon意为“过多久”。答语“For half an hour.”可知，上句应是询问“多长时间”。
9．D　考查非谓语动词的用法。句意：戴夫是个好孩子，他总是按时完成作业。finish doing sth 意为“完成做某事”。
10．A
Ⅱ.11.C　考查代词辨析。it意为“它”；them意为“他们”；her意为“她”；him意为“他”。上句“…walk home with Jemma，as usual.”及下句“She glanced…”可知，此处用her代指Jemma，故选C。
12．A　考查动词辨析。lose意为“失去”；hurt意为“受伤”；forget意为“忘记”；beat意为“打败”。下文可知，作者和Jemma不再联系，已经失去最好的朋友，故选A。
13．C　考查名词辨析。Monday意为“周一”；Friday意为“周五”；Saturday意为“周六”；Sunday意为“周日”。上文“After school on Friday”及“The next morning”可知，今天是周六。
14．D　考查疑问副词辨析。how意为“怎样”；where意为“在哪里”；which意为“哪一个”；who意为“谁”。上下文可知，作者假装不认识Jemma，反问Jemma是谁，故选D。
15．A　考查连词辨析。句意：当我走在街上时，附近一个新来的女孩微笑着朝我走来。as意为“当……时”；before意为“在……之前”；after意为“在……之后”；until意为“直到……才”。此处是as引导的时间状语从句，故选A。
16．B　考查介词辨析。句意：但是我只是从她身边走过。to意为“对于”；past意为“经过”；with意为“用……”；against意为“反对”。go past意为“经过，走过”。句意可知选B。
17．B　考查名词辨析。card意为“卡片”；photo意为“照片”；poster意为“海报”；advertisement意为“广告”。下文“…we took this photo.”可知，桌子上有一张照片。
18．D　
19．A　考查副词辨析。together意为“一起”；outside意为“在外面”；differently意为“不同地”；quickly意为“快速地”。语境及常识可知，好朋友一起做每件事。

21．D　考查动词辨析。sing意为“唱歌”；laugh意为“大笑”；shout意为“大叫”；cry意为“哭”。上下文可知，作者失去最好的朋友，并且得知奶奶有相同的遭遇后，生怕张嘴会哭出来。
22．B　23.A　
24．D　考查连词辨析。so意为“所以”；but意为“但是”；for意为“为了”；and意为“和”。前后句是并列关系，故选D。
25．C　考查名词辨析。hug意为“拥抱”；smile意为“微笑”；word意为“单词，话语”；question意为“问题”。上文“…I said ‘hello’. And we became friends.”可知，只说了“hello”就成为朋友。
Ⅲ.A [主旨大意] 这是一篇说明文，主要从服装、发型、迟到后的惩罚、是否可以有兼职等方面介绍了日本与美国的校规的异同。
26．Because they may not concentrate on their study.
