(C)
In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people didn’t use paper money until 15th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7th.
A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. He put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.
Now paper comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper.
So how can we save paper We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets (小包). We can also use handkerchiefs (手帕) and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant gives you a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.
Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. We should do it now, before it’s too late.

A. discovered Cai Lun invented paper
B. learned to make paper

D. learned to use paper money

A. To use both sides of every piece of paper.
B. To use the paper bags from shops more than once.
C. To use cotton handkerchiefs instead of paper ones.
D. To grow more trees.
( ) 14. Which of the following is not true
A. If we keep on wasting paper, we will have no paper to use.
B. The Chinese people used paper money earlier than the people in western countries.

参考答案及简析
一、单项填空。
1-5 CDBBA 6-10 CACBA
二、完形填空。
1-5 ADADD 6-10 BCDCA
这是一篇讲关于如何去猜测你所不认识的英文单词。空1比较容易做出来,应该是“你不可能知道每个单词的意思”,应该选A。顺着这个思路,空2应该选D。空3考查的是stop doing sth.(停止做某事)结构,答案选A。通读文章,会发现第二段开始讲如何猜测你不认识的单词词义,故空4选D。空5应该填入介词with,意思是“以……结尾”。空6表示一种猜测的语气,因此选择B。根据我们平时所积累的英语知识,以“er”结尾的名词很多都是表示做这个动作的人或物,因此空7选C。把文章最后一句话反复读几遍,能寻找出最后三个空的内在关系,即作者想说的是:尽管有时候光靠一个词的部分意思还不足以完全理解这个词,但是这种方法在很多时候还是很有用的。因此空8、9、10的答案分别是D、C和A。
