43.(14分)
A healthy mind
The brain is the most fascinating part of our body.Even though there has been all medical research,(1)n can really understand everything about it.Like the rest of our body,our brain needs to be cared for.The ways that we keep our mind healthy can be quite easy.Getting a good night's sleep,eating a balanced diet and taking a deep breath are all important methods of looking after both your body and your brain.
Many people think their brain will slow down with age and their memory will get worse as a result.The (2)t is,just like your body,you can also improve your mind.I' ve found I can improve my memory if I can(3)i what I need to remember.For example,if I'm going shopping and I need bread,milk and a birthday card for my brother,I form pictures of these things in my mind.
The same kind of method can be (4)u with important dates.If you have a picture in your mind of a particular event,it's much (5)e to remember than just a number on a calendar.
Another way of improving your mind is to make sure you(6)r visit new places and have new experiences.Traveling more often has much more long﹣term benefits than you would have ever expected.Personally I find learning English is a great way to keep the brain working,and communication with others in any
Language is important.Having a(7)c is much better for your brain than staring at a computer screen or at other people talking on TV.

44.(12分)It was a long and hot summer that year,and Anne enjoyed it with the whole heart.When it was over,she went back and studied hard in Miss Stacy's Queen's class for that terrible thing known as "the Entrance".Anne grew so quickly that one day Marilla was surprised to find that the girl was taller than herself.Another difference was that she talked less.
"You don't talk half as much as you were in the past,Anne.What has come over you?"
"I don't know...I don't want to talk as much," Anne said,turning red. "It's nicer to think dear,pretty thoughts and keep them in one's heart,like treasures."
After months of studying,Anne went to town for the exams.When she returned to Green Gables,three weeks passed without the exam results appearing.Anne did not know what to do with herself!
Then one evening,Anne was sitting at her open window when she saw Diana come running up the hill with a newspaper in her hand.
"Anne,you've passed," she cried, "and you came first—you and Gilbert both—you are tied."
"Well now,I always said it," said Matthew,looking at the exam result list delightedly, "I knew you could beat them all easily."
—Adapted from Anne of Green Gables

(2)Why didn't Anne talk as much as before?

B.what he is going to buy
C.what was he going to buy

【解答】分析句式,题干设空后是一个宾语从句,其语序应用陈述语序,故排除A、C项(均使用了疑问语序);题干关键信息是was not sure,表述的是过去的事情,宾语从句中也应用一般过去时态,因此D项表述符合语境。
故选:D。

故选:B。

【解答】(1)考查形容词。根据Therefore,he gathered all the wise men from his country and ...and ordered them to look for books for him to read and learn from.(因此,他召集了国内和...所有的智者,命令他们寻找书籍,供他阅读和学习。)可知是国内外所有的智者。abroad国外的。故填abroad。故选E。
(2)考查副词。根据Five years passed ....(五年...过去了。)可知五年很快地过去了。quickly 很快地。故填quickly。故选C。
(3)考查形容词。根据the king was so ....that he didn't know how to start(国王被...了,不知道如何开始。)可知国王被震惊了,不知道如何开始。shock震惊,这里用的是一般过去时态的被动语态,故填shocked。故选D。
(4)考查形容词。The ....men again went to see the king(....人再次去见国王)根据句意:知识分子们再次去见国王。intelligent,聪明的,形容词,修饰后面的名词men,故填intelligent。故选B。
七、 Complete the sentences with the given words in their proper forms(用括号中所给单词的适当形式完成下列句子,每空格限填一词)

故填:communication。

故填:chatting。
30.(1分)Doctors have the ability to save lives . (life)
【解答】根据语境分析可知,是"拯救生命"的含义。life在这里是可数名词,所以用复数。life复数形式为lives。
故填:lives。
31.(1分)Animal Helpers makes it possible for the disabled (disable) to make their lives easier.
【解答】disable使残废,动词。这里the+形容词,表示一类人,the disabled"残疾人",填形容词disabled。
故答案为:disabled。

"You don't talk half as much as you were in the past,Anne.What has come over you?"
"I don't know...I don't want to talk as much," Anne said,turning red. "It's nicer to think dear,pretty thoughts and keep them in one's heart,like treasures."
After months of studying,Anne went to town for the exams.When she returned to Green Gables,three weeks passed without the exam results appearing.Anne did not know what to do with herself!
Then one evening,Anne was sitting at her open window when she saw Diana come running up the hill with a newspaper in her hand.
"Anne,you've passed," she cried, "and you came first—you and Gilbert both—you are tied."
"Well now,I always said it," said Matthew,looking at the exam result list delightedly, "I knew you could beat them all easily."
