A
This is a tale of two friends — one is blind, the other has no arms. On their own, the two are “disabled”. But together, they are a powerful team that has changed part of their village in North China’s Hebei Province into a rich, green forest. Meet 53-year-old Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi!
Their story began in 2000, when Haixia, who was already blind in his right eye, lost his left one after an illness. Wenqi lost his arms in an accident when he was just three. Neither could find a job, so the two decided to team up. They rented some poor land and began to plant trees. In return, the local officials paid them a small fee.
Haixia and Wenqi never imagined that they would end up creating an environmental paradise. Their forest now has over 10,000 trees, hundreds of birds and many other wild animals. In addition, it saves the village from river flooding during the rainy season.
When the friends work together, they focus on their strengths not their disabilities. Their day begins at 7 a.m. when the sightless Haixia carries Wenqi across the river to get to their worksite. Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant, the two use branches from existing trees. Haixia climbs to the tree-top and with Wenqi’s direction, selects the perfect branch. He then digs a hole and carefully plants it. Finally Wenqi waters the area.
Though hard-working, the men don’t make much money. But as Wenqi puts it, “We stand on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter.”
Neither Haixia nor Wenqi cares about money. Together, they already have everything they need — a perfect pair of eyes, two strong hands, and the best friendship in the world!
1. Why did Haixia and Wenqi start working together
A. Haixia needed someone to help him.
B. They both needed a way to make money.
C. They wanted to improve the environment.
D. They were required to do so by local officials.
2. Haixia and Wenqi’s forest has helped the village by______ .
A. stopping floods in the rainy season B. increasing the number of tourists
C. making the villagers richer D. providing more farmland
3. Why do Haixia and Wenqi plant tree branches
A. They are easy to get. B. They do not cost money.
C. They can grow very quickly. D. They are preferred by animals.
4. In paragraph 5, when Wenqi says “We stand on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter”, he means that “______”.
A. they hope to make the forest even better B. the fruits from their trees are very sweet
C. they are proud not to depend on others D. they are able to do any difficult work
5. What can we learn from this story
A. Never give up and you will succeed. B. We should help the disabled to work.
C. Try your best when facing difficulties. D. We can achieve more with teamwork.
B
Round The World
Mr. and Mrs. Spencer both had very busy jobs and didn’t have much time to spend with their young children．They wanted to change this，and because their hobby was boating，they decided to sail round the world together．
It took six years to prepare everything for the trip．First，they bought a new boat．Then，both the husband and the wife had to take advanced(先进的) sailing lessons and learn all about the sea and the weather．Mr. Spencer also did several courses in repairing engines and Mrs. Spencer spent an hour in a restaurant learning to cut up fish．
In October，they had one year off from their jobs and sailed away from England with their two children．The next year，in August，their long journey ended in Australia．The boat was not big．but they took a teacher for the children with them．None of them found the trip boring because there were three computers，many CDs，a TV and a DVD player on the boat．
The family loved being at the sea and seeing the stars in the sky．But，most of all，Mr. and Mrs. Spencer enjoyed spending time with their children while they were still young．

【答案与解析】
I. 单项选择。
1．D。由前句“我刚刚拿到驾照”可知，对方需对其取得的成绩表示祝贺。Congratulations!符合句意。Good luck意为“祝你好运”；That’s right意为“对啊”；Just so-so意为“一般般”，表示程度一般，没有那么好。根据句意，故选D。
2．D。turn on打开；turn off关掉；put on穿上；put out扑灭。句意为“上周五大约午夜时分，宾馆里着火了。幸运的是，火很快被扑灭了”，故选D。
3．D。先行词是the books，为物，用that，故选D。
4．D。as soon as一……就……；after在……之后；until直到……；while当……时候，和……同时。由答语可知，两个动作同时进行，故选D。
5．B。“as + adj.／adv. 原级+as”是固定用法。根据后面的提示，她经常犯错误，可推出“莉莉不如彼得认真”。careless粗心的，careful认真的，故选B。
6．D。work工作，不可数名词；job指职业；task任务、工作，可数名词。由these可知选择D。
7．A。由上句所说“我昨天错过了篮球赛”可以判断此处表示“遗憾”，故选A项。
8. B。句中的“we looked forward to”是定语从句，修饰the great day，句中缺少谓语动词，根据句意可知用一般过去时，所以选B。
9．D。由句中的litter(垃圾)可知，应选pick up(捡起，拾起)。句意：一群志愿者每月去绿湖公园捡垃圾，我们也加入他们好吗
10．A。根据so he had to share Mary’s可推知，他没有带书包，故选without(没有，无)。
11．B。句意：吸烟对你的健康有害，你最好戒烟。give up意为“放弃”，人称代词作宾语时，人称代词应放在give与up中间。
12．B。句意：“本看上去很难过!”“他在学校因为发型而受到嘲笑。”第一个空格处应用make fun of的被动语态形式，故排除C、D两项；because后接从句，because of后接名词(短语)，his haircut为名词短语，故选B。
13．A。make／let sb. do sth. 为固定搭配，它们用省去to的动词不定式作宾语补足语，可排除B、C两项。句意：我鼓励他努力学习，尽力考试。他看上去又充满信心了。故选A。
14．B。句意：盗贼把张先生打昏了，把他的钱包拿走了。knock out意为“打昏”，故选B。
15．A。句意：蒂姆在每次考试中都得A，他被认为是我们班最聪明的。be considered to be意为“被认为是……”。
【真题链接】
1. C。句意：他们听说晚会因为考试推迟了。put on穿上；put up张贴；put off推迟；put down放下。根据句意可知用put off。
2. A。句意：——来自连云港的六个学生在江苏省中国汉字听写大赛上获得了一等奖。——真是激动人心的消息！本题考查感叹句。感叹句结构之一是：What＋形容词＋不可数名词＋主语＋谓语。news是不可数名词，前面不加不定冠词。故选A项。
3. A。 根据答语的明显时间标志词ago，可知本题所考时态为一般过去时。故答案为A。
Ⅱ. 完形填空。
1．B。not only...but also...连接两个并列的成分，由前面的“Britain”可知此处填countries．
2．C。由下句“他是一名演员”可知，他也喜欢表演。
3．D。That’s why...是固定句式，意为“那就是……的原因”，由句意可知选D。
4．A。上句提到他写的故事最初以连载的形式在杂志上发表，由此可知人们总是想看下一篇。此处为特指，故next前加定冠词the。
5．B。too，as well和also都可以表示“也”：too用于句末，前面一般有逗号；as well也用于句末，前面不用逗号；also用于句中。as well as意为“并且，还”，与句意不符。
6．D。上文提到狄更斯的作品中也有电影和戏剧，《雾都孤儿》是一部著名的音乐剧，故推知《远大前程》是一部极好的电影。
7．A。but表示转折关系，由后句“但是他把他的经历用于写作之中”可知狄更斯不喜欢去工厂工作。
8．C。由下文可以看出，狄更斯一直从事写作，直到去世。故until符合句意。
9．C。由后面的两句话可知，狄更斯去世时正在写一个故事，故选C。
10．B。狄更斯在写一个故事时去世，所以人们将永远不会知道这个故事是怎样结尾的，故how符合句意。
III. 阅读理解。
A
1. B。根据文章第二段的“Neither could find a job, so the two decided to team up. 单独一个人谁都不能找到工作，结果是后面的他们组成了一个团队。从而推理出本题的答案B。
2. A。 根据文章第三段的 “In addition, it saves the village from river flooding during the rainy season.”可知A选项正确。
3. B。根据文章第四段中的 “Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant, the two use branches from existing trees. 可知他们种植树枝的原因是他们不花钱，答案为B。
4. C。根据文章倒数第二段可知，他们觉得果实更甜的原因是we stand on our own feet，根据语境这里表示的意思是自己能够独立，与C选项符合，故答案为C。
5. D。文章最后一段的感叹句强调了作者的情感，两个关键点在于：together；the best friendship表明是他们的团队精神让他们能够创造出更多的成果。
