"Serena, don't forget your promise to me that you will mow (割) Mrs Matin's yard this weekend," said Dad, "Don't let me down." Serena was the oldest child in the family, and one of her chores was to mow their yard. Mrs Martin, their elderly neighbor, was unable to take care of her yard, so Serena's dad had volunteered Serena for this job. Since Mrs Martin's yard was not very big, Serena knew the job would go quickly.
However, she still resented her dad's promise.
"Why didn't you ask me first " Serena had complained.
"Did you ask me first when you volunteered me to be in the school festival last fall " asked Serena's father.
"Well, no, I didn't ask you first, but you would have done those things anyway. You're always willing to help."
"I try when I can," Dad answered.
"Serena, we have known Mrs Martin for a very long time. She has often helped our family. Now we can do something for her. Besides, the feeling you get from helping someone makes you wonder who is really helping whom."
"I don't know, Dad," said Serena. "The only feeling I get from mowing our yard is tired."
"Just you wait and see," said Dad.
After breakfast, Serena made her way to Mrs Martin's yard. She was good at her job and soon had Mrs Martin's yard looking tidy. Mrs Martin came outside with a big glass of orange juice and offered it to her. Serena stopped her work and gratefully enjoyed the drink, while Mrs.Martin talked to her about all of the flowers in her yard. Seeing the joy in Mrs Martin's eyes, Serena began to understand how much the yard meant to Mrs. Martin.
After finishing her drink, Serena returned to work with a new attitude. A warm feeling began to spread through her body. Her dad was right. It was hard to tell who was helping whom!

The New Year is a time for celebrations for almost everyone around the world. In Britain, people go to pubs and nightclubs to dance the old year away, and to welcome in the new one at midnight. Everyone wants to kiss someone special (boyfriend, girlfriend or even a complete stranger! ) as the bells ring out at midnight.
In recent years, street parties have become more popular. Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares, main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays.
For people who stay at home, most watch special, live New Year shows on TV and countdown, along with the presenters, from 10 to 1 as the last seconds of the old year tick away and the bells of the New Year are rung.
In Scotland, on New Year's Eve, people visit their neighbours and drink, dance and generally have a good time. If you're invited to a Scottish home, it's important to know what to bring with you: a lump of coal, some shortbread and some whisky.
The coal shows warmth so you're wishing that the people you visit will have enough heat in the coming year. The shortbread represents food, so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year. Some Scots call whisky "the water of life", so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts, it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months.
There's one more key task you still have to perform if you can. The first person to knock on a neighbour's door is supposed to be a tall, dark, handsome man. If you are, you'll bring good luck to the household. But what if that's not you Well, don't ring the bell just yet. Wait a while and the right person will turn up soon!
1.What is the best title for this passage
A. Seeing the old year off in Britain.
B. Celebrations of a Scottish New Year.
C. Visiting Scottish homes on New Year.
D. Sending good luck in the New Year.
2.We know from the passage ______.
A. British people hate to think of the old year and wish to dance it away quickly
B. street concerts have become more popular on New Year's Eve
C. British people let off fireworks in public places to celebrate the New Year
D. people stay at home doing nothing but wait for the bell of the New Year to ring
3.Why do visitors take some things to a Scottish home on New Year's Eve
A. To share good food and warmth. B. To help those poor families.
C. To send best wishes to the families. D. To show respect and richness.
4.The underlined phrase "the right person" in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A. the host of a special TV show
B. a tall, dark, handsome man
C. a man with coal, shortbread and whisky
D. a neighbor
D
How do you know if a watermelon is perfectly ripe Well, one theory is that if you knock hard on the outside, the sound you hear will help determine if it's ready to eat. That theory led to a huge online debate in China about what kind of people tend to engage in the art of "watermelon knocking".
The discussion, which thousands of people contributed to on the Chinese micro-blogging site Sina Weibo, was kicked off by an unknown event thousands of miles away in Italy.
It all began when a Chinese social media user posted the picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket asking customers not to knock on the watermelons. The sign was stuck in a full box of watermelons which read, "Please stop knocking on the watermelons. They will not respond to it!"
There was no indication that the supermarket was targeting this message at customers with Chinese heritage. The sign was in Italian, not Mandarin. But somehow it was taken as an attack on a practice which some Chinese observers regarded as being unique to their national customs.
Many shared jokes aimed at the supermarket sign.
Online users are keen to show they know better, especially on the subject of watermelons.
A quick online search will reveal that Chinese social media users are not alone in their thinking. Watermelon knocking and listening for a hollow sound is indeed a nearly universal concept. It even appears in films. The popular Russian cartoon, Nu, pogodi!, includes watermelon knocking as part of an episode.
There are no absolute guarantees about what to do when it comes to choosing fruit. But at the risk of causing an international diplomatic incident we would suggest some common ground about what to look for to choose the perfect watermelon.
Feel the weight of the melon. The heavier, the better.
Press on the watermelon. It should feel firm and if it springs back, it's ready to eat.
Look at the markings on the melon. A yellow patch on one end indicates it's ready.
Of course if all these fail, you could always, knock and wait for a reply.
1.What was the cause of the heated discussion
A. The art of watermelon knocking.
B. Whether the watermelon is ripe.
C. The traditional Italian customs in the supermarket.
D. The picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket.
2.The author writes the article in a(n) _______way.
A. serious B. humorous C. approving D. critical
3.In the text, the author suggests a lot of methods of selecting watermelon EXCEPT___________.
A. by feeling the weight B. by waiting for a response
C. by pressing D. by observing markings
4.What is the purpose of this text
A. To bring up an international diplomatic incident.
B. To present a research result.
C. To give practical advice by telling a story.
D. To introduce the traditional customs of Italy.

Dottie's Thanksgiving Dinner
Dottie, a puppy, knew today was special. It was Thanksgiving and everyone was getting ready for a big dinner. The doorbell kept ringing as cousins, grandparents, uncles and aunts all came to visit.
Amazing smells were coming from the kitchen. Dottie was not allowed to be in the kitchen today. Mom said that she would get in the way. Dad said she would lick(舔) everything she could reach. They were both right.
The children had been asked to keep the dog out of the way. They did, at first. However, once their cousins arrived, they forgot about Dottie and started playing with each other. The dog got closer and closer to the kitchen. Everything smelled so good! On the edge of the table was a plate filled with slices of ham(火腿) . Before she had a chance to eat it, Dad saw her.
"No! Leave that alone, Dottie! No food for you," he said. Then he let the dog out into the yard where some family members were playing football. Dottie smiled. This was good! She liked running. She grabbed(抓住) the football from a small boy and wouldn't give it back. He started to cry, and Dottie got in trouble.
"That's enough, Dottie," said Uncle Bill, taking the ball away from her. "Maybe you should go back in." He opened the door again, and the sad puppy went inside.
The puppy went into the dining room and no one was there. Dottie went under the table. The tablecloth was so long that it hung down to the ground. This was a good place for a sleep, she thought.
In the kitchen, everything was ready. Mom and Dad began carrying big bowls and plates of delicious food into the dining room. "Before we get started, we should take a family picture," suggested Mom. Dad agreed. They went to tell everyone to go outside for a Thanksgiving photo together.
Dottie's nose woke up before she did. She came out from under the table. She looked around. The house was empty. She remembered what Dad had said. "No food for you." He was wrong.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
"Oh, YES, food for me!" Dottie thought, excitedly. ______________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Oh my goodness!" said Mom. _____________________________________________

第二节
答案：①throughout ②or ③them ④when ⑤independent ⑥which ⑦because ⑧looks ⑨forgetting ⑩daily
解析：①考查介词。句意：全世界有各种各样的节日，满足并取悦祖先的节日，纪念一些名人或者重要事件的节日，向上帝带给他们丰收年表达人类感激之情的节日。结合句意可知此处指"全，遍及"，符合语境。故填throughout。
②考查连词。famous people和important events 之间是选择关系，应使用连词or，表示"或者"。故填or。
③考查代词。此处代指前面提到的people，且作动词bring的宾语，应使用宾格them。故填them。
④考查定语从句。句意：例如，日本人庆祝盂兰盆节，节日期间人们扫墓点香来纪念他们的祖先。分析句子结构可知，空处引导一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是Obon，关系词在从句中作时间状语，应使用when引导。故填when。
⑤考查形容词。句意：在印度，10月2日是纪念Mohandas Gandhi 的全国性节日，Mohandas Gandhi 帮助印度成为一个独立国家。此处应填一个形容词作定语修饰名词country，表示"独立的"。故填independent。

⑦考查状语从句。空前提到春节是最有活力和最重要的节日，空后是解释原因，所以填because引导原因状语从句。故填because。
⑧考查时态。分析句子结构可知，that引导一个定语从句，that指代先行词festival在从句中作主语，是单数意义，空处是定语从句的谓语，根据空格前的主句it is a festival可知，此处要用一般现在时，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填looks。
⑨考查非谓语动词。句意：因为节日期间，人们可以聚在一起吃喝玩乐，暂时忘记所有日常的挣扎和需求。空处应使用非谓语形式，forget和逻辑主语people之间是主谓关系，故使用现在分词形式作状语。故填forgetting。
⑩考查形容词。空格后为名词struggles and demands，所以此处用形容词daily，意为"日常的"。故填daily。

答案：
"Oh, YES, food for me!" Dottie thought, excitedly. She sniffed each plate first and then decided to taste the turkey first because it was Thanksgiving. After a lick, she wanted more. She wolfed down a turkey leg within a minute. So satisfied was she that she believed it was the best thing she had ever eaten. She continued to took a bite of the others one by one. "This is the best day in my life. I have never been so happy!" Dottie thought.
"Oh my goodness!" said Mom. She immediately rushed out to call other family members to have a look. Everyone was shocked at the mess on the table. Almost each dish had been spoiled and some was splattered all over the table. At the same time, Dottie stopped and became well-behaved when she saw people's helpless look, realizing she might have brought disaster. Mom couldn't accept it and ran upstairs, sobbing. Just then, Dad said soothingly, "Luckily, we still have food delivery service. Let's try a special Thanksgiving dinner."

"Serena, don't forget your promise to me that you will mow (割) Mrs Matin's yard this weekend," said Dad, "Don't let me down." Serena was the oldest child in the family, and one of her chores was to mow their yard. Mrs Martin, their elderly neighbor, was unable to take care of her yard, so Serena's dad had volunteered Serena for this job. Since Mrs Martin's yard was not very big, Serena knew the job would go quickly.
However, she still resented her dad's promise.
"Why didn't you ask me first " Serena had complained.
"Did you ask me first when you volunteered me to be in the school festival last fall " asked Serena's father.
"Well, no, I didn't ask you first, but you would have done those things anyway. You're always willing to help."
"I try when I can," Dad answered.
"Serena, we have known Mrs Martin for a very long time. She has often helped our family. Now we can do something for her. Besides, the feeling you get from helping someone makes you wonder who is really helping whom."
"I don't know, Dad," said Serena. "The only feeling I get from mowing our yard is tired."
"Just you wait and see," said Dad.
After breakfast, Serena made her way to Mrs Martin's yard. She was good at her job and soon had Mrs Martin's yard looking tidy. Mrs Martin came outside with a big glass of orange juice and offered it to her. Serena stopped her work and gratefully enjoyed the drink, while Mrs.Martin talked to her about all of the flowers in her yard. Seeing the joy in Mrs Martin's eyes, Serena began to understand how much the yard meant to Mrs. Martin.

The New Year is a time for celebrations for almost everyone around the world. In Britain, people go to pubs and nightclubs to dance the old year away, and to welcome in the new one at midnight. Everyone wants to kiss someone special (boyfriend, girlfriend or even a complete stranger! ) as the bells ring out at midnight.
In recent years, street parties have become more popular. Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares, main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays.
For people who stay at home, most watch special, live New Year shows on TV and countdown, along with the presenters, from 10 to 1 as the last seconds of the old year tick away and the bells of the New Year are rung.
In Scotland, on New Year's Eve, people visit their neighbours and drink, dance and generally have a good time. If you're invited to a Scottish home, it's important to know what to bring with you: a lump of coal, some shortbread and some whisky.
The coal shows warmth so you're wishing that the people you visit will have enough heat in the coming year. The shortbread represents food, so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year. Some Scots call whisky "the water of life", so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts, it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months.
There's one more key task you still have to perform if you can. The first person to knock on a neighbour's door is supposed to be a tall, dark, handsome man. If you are, you'll bring good luck to the household. But what if that's not you Well, don't ring the bell just yet. Wait a while and the right person will turn up soon!
1.What is the best title for this passage
A. Seeing the old year off in Britain.
B. Celebrations of a Scottish New Year.
C. Visiting Scottish homes on New Year.
D. Sending good luck in the New Year.
2.We know from the passage ______.
A. British people hate to think of the old year and wish to dance it away quickly
B. street concerts have become more popular on New Year's Eve
C. British people let off fireworks in public places to celebrate the New Year
D. people stay at home doing nothing but wait for the bell of the New Year to ring
3.Why do visitors take some things to a Scottish home on New Year's Eve
A. To share good food and warmth. B. To help those poor families.
C. To send best wishes to the families. D. To show respect and richness.
4.The underlined phrase "the right person" in the last paragraph refers to ______.
A. the host of a special TV show
B. a tall, dark, handsome man

How do you know if a watermelon is perfectly ripe Well, one theory is that if you knock hard on the outside, the sound you hear will help determine if it's ready to eat. That theory led to a huge online debate in China about what kind of people tend to engage in the art of "watermelon knocking".
The discussion, which thousands of people contributed to on the Chinese micro-blogging site Sina Weibo, was kicked off by an unknown event thousands of miles away in Italy.
It all began when a Chinese social media user posted the picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket asking customers not to knock on the watermelons. The sign was stuck in a full box of watermelons which read, "Please stop knocking on the watermelons. They will not respond to it!"
There was no indication that the supermarket was targeting this message at customers with Chinese heritage. The sign was in Italian, not Mandarin. But somehow it was taken as an attack on a practice which some Chinese observers regarded as being unique to their national customs.
Many shared jokes aimed at the supermarket sign.
Online users are keen to show they know better, especially on the subject of watermelons.
A quick online search will reveal that Chinese social media users are not alone in their thinking. Watermelon knocking and listening for a hollow sound is indeed a nearly universal concept. It even appears in films. The popular Russian cartoon, Nu, pogodi!, includes watermelon knocking as part of an episode.
There are no absolute guarantees about what to do when it comes to choosing fruit. But at the risk of causing an international diplomatic incident we would suggest some common ground about what to look for to choose the perfect watermelon.
Feel the weight of the melon. The heavier, the better.
Press on the watermelon. It should feel firm and if it springs back, it's ready to eat.
Look at the markings on the melon. A yellow patch on one end indicates it's ready.
Of course if all these fail, you could always, knock and wait for a reply.
1.What was the cause of the heated discussion
A. The art of watermelon knocking.
B. Whether the watermelon is ripe.
C. The traditional Italian customs in the supermarket.
D. The picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket.
2.The author writes the article in a(n) _______way.
A. serious B. humorous C. approving D. critical
3.In the text, the author suggests a lot of methods of selecting watermelon EXCEPT___________.
A. by feeling the weight B. by waiting for a response
C. by pressing D. by observing markings
4.What is the purpose of this text
A. To bring up an international diplomatic incident.
B. To present a research result.
C. To give practical advice by telling a story.
D. To introduce the traditional customs of Italy.

Dottie's Thanksgiving Dinner
Dottie, a puppy, knew today was special. It was Thanksgiving and everyone was getting ready for a big dinner. The doorbell kept ringing as cousins, grandparents, uncles and aunts all came to visit.
Amazing smells were coming from the kitchen. Dottie was not allowed to be in the kitchen today. Mom said that she would get in the way. Dad said she would lick(舔) everything she could reach. They were both right.
The children had been asked to keep the dog out of the way. They did, at first. However, once their cousins arrived, they forgot about Dottie and started playing with each other. The dog got closer and closer to the kitchen. Everything smelled so good! On the edge of the table was a plate filled with slices of ham(火腿) . Before she had a chance to eat it, Dad saw her.
"No! Leave that alone, Dottie! No food for you," he said. Then he let the dog out into the yard where some family members were playing football. Dottie smiled. This was good! She liked running. She grabbed(抓住) the football from a small boy and wouldn't give it back. He started to cry, and Dottie got in trouble.
"That's enough, Dottie," said Uncle Bill, taking the ball away from her. "Maybe you should go back in." He opened the door again, and the sad puppy went inside.
The puppy went into the dining room and no one was there. Dottie went under the table. The tablecloth was so long that it hung down to the ground. This was a good place for a sleep, she thought.
In the kitchen, everything was ready. Mom and Dad began carrying big bowls and plates of delicious food into the dining room. "Before we get started, we should take a family picture," suggested Mom. Dad agreed. They went to tell everyone to go outside for a Thanksgiving photo together.
Dottie's nose woke up before she did. She came out from under the table. She looked around. The house was empty. She remembered what Dad had said. "No food for you." He was wrong.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
"Oh, YES, food for me!" Dottie thought, excitedly. ______________________________

Everyone wants to kiss someone special (boyfriend, girlfriend or even a complete stranger! ) as the bells ring out at midnight."新年几乎是全世界每个人庆祝的日子。在英国，人们去酒吧和夜总会跳新年舞，在午夜迎接新年的到来。每个人都想亲吻某个特别的人(男朋友，女朋友，甚至是一个完全陌生的人!)当午夜钟声响起的时候。根据第四段In Scotland, on New Year's Eve, people visit their neighbours and drink, dance and generally have a good time. 在苏格兰，人们在新年前夕拜访邻居，喝酒、跳舞，通常都过得很愉快"本文主要介绍了英国庆祝新年的活动方式。着重介绍了苏格兰新年的庆祝方式。所以短文最佳标题为"苏格兰新年的庆祝方式"。故选B。
2.答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段In recent years, street parties have become more popular. Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares, main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays."近年来，街头派对越来越受欢迎。成百上千的人聚集在广场、主要街道或河岸上，听乐队演奏，看精彩的烟花表演。"由此判断出可知, 人们会在公共场合燃放烟花以示庆祝。故选C。
3.答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中If you're invited to a Scottish home, it's important to know what to bring with you: a lump of coal, some shortbread and some whisky."如果你被邀请去苏格兰人家做客，一定要知道带什么东西:一块煤、一些酥饼和一些威士忌。"和第五段中The shortbread represents food, so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year. Some Scots call whisky "the water of life", so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts, it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months."酥饼代表食物，所以你希望人们在新的一年里有足够的食物。有些苏格兰人把威士忌称为"生命之水"，所以当你把酒瓶递给主人时，这意味着你希望他们在未来12个月里有足够的酒喝。"由此可知, 到苏格兰人家里的拜访者要带着一些东西, 这些东西都代表着拜访者美好的祝愿和祝福。故选C。
4.答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段,The first person to knock on a neighbour's door is supposed to be a tall, dark, handsome man.可知， 第一个敲邻居门的人应该是一个高大、黝黑、英俊的男人。所以等一会儿这个高大、黝黑、英俊的男人就会出现。故划线词为" 高大、黝黑、英俊的男人"。故选B。
D
1.答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第一句"It all began when a Chinese social media user posted the picture of a sign in an Italian supermarket asking customers not to knock on the watermelons."(这一切始于一名中国社交媒体用户发布了一张照片，照片中，一家意大利超市贴出告示，要求顾客不要敲西瓜。)可知，意大利超市贴出告示不让人们敲西瓜这样一张照片，引发了这场激烈的讨论。故选D。
2.答案：B
解析：推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段"Of course if all these fail, you could always, knock and wait for a reply."(当然，如果所有这些都不管用，你可以一直敲西瓜，等待西瓜回复你。)可知，作者的写作方式是幽默的。B选项"humorous"(幽默的)符合，A. serious严肃的；C. approving赞成的；D. critical批评的，均不符。故选B。
3.答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据文章最后四段"Feel the weight of the melon. The heavier, the better. Press on the watermelon. It should feel firm and if it springs back, it's ready to eat. Look at the markings on the melon. A yellow patch on one end indicates it's ready. Of course if all these fail, you could always, knock and wait for a reply."(感受西瓜的重量。越重越好。压一下西瓜。摸起来很结实，如果弹回来，西瓜就可以吃了。看看瓜上的标记。一端的黄色标志表示西瓜已经熟了。当然，如果这些都不管用，你可以敲西瓜，等待西瓜回复。)可知，作者推荐了三种鉴别西瓜的方法。最后一段是一句玩笑话，并不是一种真正的方法。故选B。
4.答案：C
解析：推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段"How do you know if a watermelon is perfectly ripe Well, one theory is that if you knock hard on the outside, the sound you hear will help determine if it's ready to eat. That theory led to a huge online debate in China about what kind of people tend to engage in the art of "watermelon knocking"."(你怎么知道西瓜熟了没有？有一种说法是，如果你用力敲外面，你听到的声音会决定它是否可以吃了。这一理论在中国引发了一场大规模的网络辩论，争论的焦点是究竟什么样的人才会喜欢"敲西瓜"的艺术。)和倒数第四，倒数第三和倒数第二段"Feel the weight of the melon. The heavier, the better. Press on the watermelon. It should feel firm and if it springs back, it's ready to eat. Look at the markings on the melon. A yellow patch on one end indicates it's ready."(感受西瓜的重量。越重越好。压一下西瓜。摸起来很结实，如果弹回来，西瓜就可以吃了。看看瓜上的标记。一端的黄色标志表示西瓜已经熟了。)可知，作者通过讲述敲西瓜能辨认西瓜是否熟了这一理论引起了人们热议，进而作者给出了鉴别西瓜是否成熟的可行建议。所以文章的主要目的是通过讲述故事给我们提供一些切实可行的建议。故选C。

第二节
答案：
"Oh, YES, food for me!" Dottie thought, excitedly. She sniffed each plate first and then decided to taste the turkey first because it was Thanksgiving. After a lick, she wanted more. She wolfed down a turkey leg within a minute. So satisfied was she that she believed it was the best thing she had ever eaten. She continued to took a bite of the others one by one. "This is the best day in my life. I have never been so happy!" Dottie thought.
"Oh my goodness!" said Mom. She immediately rushed out to call other family members to have a look. Everyone was shocked at the mess on the table. Almost each dish had been spoiled and some was splattered all over the table. At the same time, Dottie stopped and became well-behaved when she saw people's helpless look, realizing she might have brought disaster. Mom couldn't accept it and ran upstairs, sobbing. Just then, Dad said soothingly, "Luckily, we still have food delivery service. Let's try a special Thanksgiving dinner."
