四、阅读理解
Erden Eruc has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean in a rowboat since he left California on July 10, 2007. He has been heading for Australia with only birds, fish and sharks ever since.
Crossing the Pacific is only part of his journey. Eruc has decided to go all the way around the world using his own energy. He will row, bike, walk and climb the world without help from any motors at all. His plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents(洲) along the way.
For the first part of his trip, he bicycled 5,546 miles from Seattle, Washington to Mount McKinley in Alaska and back, walked 67 miles to base camp, and climbed 20,320 feet to McKinley’s peak. Now in the second part of his adventure(冒险活动), he is rowing to Australia.
Why would he try to go around the world this way He explains that he wants to encourage kids to dream their dreams and get to their own goals. He wants to show kids that there might be hard parts along the way, and sometimes they might not even get to that final goal. But they can have great adventures and learn a lot along the way.
Eruc has already faced some difficulties. For example, winds and waves keep pushing him westward when he wants to go south toward the Solomon Islands. If his luck doesn’t change, he will cheerfully change his plan, and aim to land at Papua New Guinea. One way or another, he’s sure he’ll get to his next goal: Australia.
When his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people—especially children. He has already visited many schools and shared his story.
Eruc encourages all kids to set their eyes on a goal and not give up. He says, “With goals, we will make progress, and we will be farther along than when we started, even if we don’t get to some goals. That’s called life!”

A．took a train B．rowed his boat C．travelled by air D．travelled by bus

参考答案
1．D
【详解】句意：他似乎知道这个坏消息。
考查非谓语动词。表达“看起来似乎”用“seem to do”。表达“知道”用动词不定式“to know”。故选D。
2．A
【详解】句意：你喜欢的超市和之前相比离你家更近，但是现在它倒闭了。
考查形容词。close“近的”，形容词，比较级为closer；closed“关闭的”，形容词。closely精密地，副词。根据“than”可知，此处应用比较级closer，表示“更近”，a lot closer“近的多”。再结合but可知，此处应用closed，表示“关闭”。故选A。
3．C
【详解】句意：猎人应该停止为了熊掌而捕杀熊。
考查动词词组。stop to hunt停止去捕猎；stop to hunt for停止去寻找；stop hunting停止捕猎；stop hunt for表达错误。根据语境可知，捕杀熊是猎人正在做的事情，停止正在做的事情，应用词组stop doing sth。故选C。
4．D
【详解】句意：布朗太太发现她可爱的猫快要死了，所以她把它带去了医院。不幸的是，它最终还是死了。
考查单词辨析。dying垂死的，濒临死亡的，形容词；dead去世的，死亡的，形容词；died死亡，动词过去式。根据“so she took it to hospital”可知，猫咪快要死了，还没有死，所以被送去医院，第一空用形容词dying作宾补；第二句缺少谓语动词，故用动词过去式died。故选D。
5．D
【详解】句意：——哦，天哪！这肉味道很差。不要再吃了。——好的，我会的。考查形容词副词用法以及否定祈使句的回答。tastes是系动词，后加bad作表语，bad是形容词，所以应用副词terribly修饰，排除BC选项；Don’t eat it any more是否定祈使句，应该是不会再吃了，故选D。
6．C
【详解】句意：在明天关于保护野生动物的会议上你打算说些什么？
考查动词辨析。speak说，后跟语言；say说，后跟说话内容；talk说，谈论，不及物动词跟宾语需要加介词about；tell讲述，及物动词直接跟宾语。根据题干空格后是介词about，并且根据介词+doing的用法，可知第一空用talk，第二空用protecting。故选C。
7．B
【详解】——你单独住吗？——是的，我自己有一套房子。
考查介词短语。by靠，凭借；on对；of属于……的。根据“live”可知此处应用词组on one’s own表示“单独，独自”；根据“I have a house”可知此处应用词组of one’s own表示“房子属于某人”。故选B。
8．B
【详解】句意：——你知道去什么有趣的地方度过周末吗？——抱歉，周末我通常哪里也不去。
考查to的用法。根据“ interestin place to go... spend the weekend”可知，去有趣的地方是过周末的，第一空应用不定式表示目的；第二空后的“nowhere”是副词，因此动词go后不用加to。故选B。
9．C
【详解】句意：狗妈妈一次生几个孩子。
考查介词短语辨析。on a time错误搭配；in a time一段时间后；at a time一次，每次；for a time一度，一时。根据“Mother dogs have several babies...”和选项可知，此处指狗妈妈一次生几个孩子，“at a time”符合题意。故选C。
10．B
【详解】句意：你出生时体重是多少？
考查特殊疑问句。how heavy多重；how much多少，后接不可数名词；how many多少，后接可数名词；what weight什么重量。how much do you weigh=how heavy are you“你体重是多少”。故选B。
11．A
【详解】句意：不是每一种动物都能为我们干重活。
考查限定词辨析。every+单数名词，每个；a+以辅音音素开头的单数名词，一；both+复数名词，两者都；all+复数名词，所有。animal为单数可数名词，且以元音音素开头，所以此空应填every。故选A。
12．D
【详解】句意：——你想要来一些咖啡吗？——不，谢谢。我想喝点牛奶。
考查不定代词辨析和非谓语动词。some“一些”，通常用于肯定句，也可用于期望得到肯定回答的一般疑问句；any“一些，任何”，通常用于否定句和一般疑问句。根据“Would you like ... coffee ”可知，第一空应用some，期望得到对方肯定回答；再根据would like to do sth.“想要做某事”可知，第二空要用不定式作宾语。故选D。
13．A
【详解】句意：——惊人的消息！《水形物语》在2017年获得了四项奥斯卡奖！——我等不及要去电影院看了。
考查非谓语动词。can’t wait to do sth“迫不及待做某事”，故选A。
14．B
【详解】句意：丹尼尔总是乐于帮助有需要的人。
考查非谓语动词以及介词短语。be ready to do sth“乐于做某事”，第一空填动词不定式。in need“迫切需要”，固定搭配，故选B。
15．B
【详解】句意：你对他们都很了解。谁更聪明？
考查代词辨析。all(三者及以上)都；both两者都；none没有一个(三者及以上)；one一，根据“smarter”可知，此处是两者的比较，故选B。
16．for any reason 17．far away 18．is dangerous to 19．artist 20．a member of
16．句意：不要以任何理由取笑任何人。这是不礼貌的。根据“Do not make fun of anyone...It’s impolite.”及选词可知，此处指的是不要以任何理由取笑别人，for any reason符合语境。故填for any reason。
17．句意：王先生住在离工厂很远的地方，所以他每天乘公共汽车上班。根据“so he goes to work by bus every day.”及选词可知，此处指的是住在远离工厂的地方，far away from“远离”。故填far away。
18．句意：他害怕狗。他认为这对他是危险的。根据“He is afraid of the dog.”及选词可知，他认为狗对他是危险的，be dangerous to“ 对……很危险”，主语是it，be动词用is，故填is dangerous to。

20．句意：丹尼尔擅长踢足球。他是学校足球队的队员。根据“Daniel is good at playing football. He is...the school football team.”及选词可知，他是足球队的成员，a member of符合语境。故填a member of。

25．句意：人们在北京动物园给了他一个新家。根据“People…him a new home in Beijing Zoo.”和首字母g可知，Migara被送到中国之后人们就给他一个新家，give“给”，动词；此句讲述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，give应变成其过去式gave。故填(g)ave。

31．句意：事实上，Migara在中国有了新家和家人，他不再是孤儿了。根据上文“People gave him a new home in Beijing Zoo.”可知，人们给了他一个新家，所以他有了一个新家，此空应填形容词new“新的”作定语。故填(n)ew。
