四、阅读理解。
The gossipy friend is the one who just can't keep a secret. If you're stupid enough to tell her all your secrets, she'll tell others at the very first chance.
She's always talking about who's doing what to whom. In fact, talking about other people is her number one pastime. It's just a shame that she never learns she should speak carefully. Do you remember when you told her that you had a really embarrassing(令人尴尬的)illness? Everyone knew about it within hours. Do you remember you told her that your dad had a bad temper Everyone heard that too! Well, it's not a secret any more.
If you want to keep a relationship with a gossipy friend, you will have to accept that she's not the kind of friend you can tell everything and that your secrets are never safe with her. So you can either choose to keep her as a friend but never discuss anything more about yourself than East Enders(《东区人》),or watch How to Dump a Friend and give up the relationship between you and her.
( )1. Who is a gossipy friend
A.The one you can tell her all your secrets.
B.The one who just can't keep a secret.
C.The one who shares secrets with you.
D. The one who knows all your secrets.
( )2. The underlined word “pastime” means “_______”in Chinese.
A.爱好 B.过去 C.消遣 D.选择
( )3. What will a gossipy friend do if you tell her that you have an embarrassing illness
A. She will help you get out of the illness.
B. She will donate money to you to treat the illness.
C. She will be afraid of getting the same illness like you.
D. She will tell others in a short time.
( )4.What does the writer mean by saying “your secrets are never safe with her”

二、1.D【解析】句意:在所有的恒星中,太阳是离地球最近的。between意为“在两者之间”,不符合句意,则A、B两项错误;near的最高级形式为nearest,则C项错误。故选D。
2.C【解析】句意:-这只小乌龟有多重?-它只重150克。第一句中的 weight 为名词,意为“重量”,“What's the weight of...?”是固定句型,意为“··...·的重量是多少?”;第二句主语为It,则第二空应填动词weigh的第三人称单数形式weighs,意为“重量为····.·”。故选C。
3.C【解析】句意:-妈妈,能请你给我买一条像这样的连衣裙吗?-当然可以。我们能买一条比这条便宜,但和它一样好的连衣裙。根据句中的“than”可知,第一空应填比较级 cheaper;第二空应用 as good as,意为“和···一样好”。故选C。
4.D【解析】因长江是属于中国的,和国内其他河流作比较时,不能用A、B两项;表示“国内其他河流”应用复数,则C项错误;any other意为“其他任何一个”,后用名词的单数形式。故选D。

2.C【解析】根据前句“她总是谈论谁对谁做了什么”可以推知,谈论别人是她首要的消遣方式,所以pastime意为“消遣”。故选C。
3.D【解析】根据第二段中“Do you remember when you told her that you had a really embarrassing illness? Everyone knew about it within hours.”可以推知,她会在短时间内把这件事告诉别人。故选D。
4.A【解析】根据第三段中“she's not the kind of friend you can tell everything”可知,这种朋友会把你的秘密告诉别人,因此你的秘密在她那里是不安全的。故选A。
5.C【解析】根据第三段中“So you can either choose to keep her as a friend but never discuss anything
more about yourself than EastEnders”可知,如果你想和多嘴的人保持关系,那么你不应该告诉她一些有关你自己的隐私的事情,C项“告诉他们你昨晚和你父母吵架了”符合题意。故选C。
