第一节 (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Ottawa is the capital ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of Canada. It is the second largest city in Ontario and the fourth largest city in the country.
The Centre Block i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the main building on Parliament Hill (国会山). It is also the location of several ceremonial spaces, such as the Hall of Honour and the Memorial Chamber. The present Centre Block is the second iteration of the building, after the first was destroyed by fire in 1916, and it is one of the most recognizable buildings in Canada.
Downtown Ottawa is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the commercial and economic centre of the city. Most of the buildings are office towers. While most of Ottawa's high tech industry is based elsewhere, it has a significant presence in the downtown core. The downtown also contains a number of apartments, hotels, and the older single family homes and townhouses along its edges.
The National ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Gallery of Canada is one of Canada's premier art galleries. The Gallery has a large and varied collection of paintings, drawings, sculpture, and photographs. Although its focus is on Canadian art, it also holds works by some noted American and European artists.
The Rideau Canal is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America. At the very beginning, the purpose of the Rideau Canal was military, as it was intended to provide a secure supply and communication route between Montreal and the British naval base in Kingston. It remains in use today primarily for pleasure boating, with most of its original structures remained. The locks on the system open for navigation in mid May and close in mid October.

TFK: What prompted (引起) your interest in food
ZIMMERN: What p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rompted my interest in food is that it is universal way to communicate.【版权所有:21教育】
TFK: When I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )first tried foie gras, I didn't know that it was made from duck liver (肝脏). Do you think giving kids so much information will scare them off from eating unique foods
ZIMMERN: Maybe, but th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at is not my experience. I think kids are smart. If you're not going to tell them what it is, then any other time they are going to wonder, “What are you hiding from me?” I think it is better to be honest.

ZIMMERN: Let_the_ki ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds_call_the_shots. Pick a couple of restaurants and let them choose one. When you get there, everyone including kids has to choose something that they never tried before.

C
When I was 12, all ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) I wanted was a signet (图章) ring. They were the “in” thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my mum gave me a signet ring with my initials (姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.21世纪教育网版权所有
What made it ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being “replaced”. We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything — so most of the “new” stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.
Then, only one ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed, and a c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ouple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. “You'll recognize this one,” she said, smiling.
Then she handed me a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet right inside.
The family who had b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother.
And it still fits me.
语篇解读 本文为记叙文,题材为人物故事。作者讲述了自己13岁的生日礼物,一枚图章戒指,15年后失而复得的故事。
8.The underlin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed word “in” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.
A. fashionable B. available
C. practical D. renewable
答案与解析 A 词义猜测 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )题。根据下文“it seemed every girl except me had one”(除了我以外,似乎每个女孩子都拥有一枚)可推断出,图章戒指在当时是非常时髦的(fashionable)东西。available“可获得的”; practical“实用的”; renewable“可更新的”。
9.When she g ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ot the ring back, the writer was about ________ years old.
A. 13 B. 15
C. 26 D. 28
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。根据第一段可知 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )作者是在13岁生日时得到的戒指;根据第三段最后一句可知,两年后作者一家卖掉了房子,当时她应该是15岁;再根据倒数第二段第一句可知,13年前买房的那家人因为装修而发现了这枚戒指。根据以上细节计算,作者重获戒指时应该是28岁。
10.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. The writer's family moved several times.
B. The writer never stopped looking for her ring.
C. The writer's ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.
D. The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.
答案与解析 A 细节理解题。根据第四段第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句中“Years passed, and a couple of moves later”可知答案选A项(作者一家几度搬迁)。根据第三段倒数第二句可知B项错误;根据倒数第二段最后一句中“professionally cleaned up by a jeweler”可知C项错误;根据第三段第二句可知D项错误。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Greet the Day: How to Become an Early Riser
Waking up early ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is really just a habit. You don't need any skill to do it. __11__ Here are some tips I've picked up along the way of developing the habit of getting up early.【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】

When you wake up, get out of bed immediately!
When your alarm goe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s off, you should get out of bed and get as much natural light as possible. __15__ When your body is exposed to light, melatonin production goes down. When this happens, you will be more ready to start the day. Getting out of bed right away can also give you less motivation to go back to sleep.
A. Get enough sleep.
B. Avoid coffee or alcohol as well.
C. Create a relaxing environment for sleep.
D. Try some warm milk or have a hot bath to help yourself to sleep.
E. When your body wan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts to sleep, it produces melatonin to help that process.
F. You just nee ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d to wake up consistently to condition your body to the routine.
G. Don't wake up ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) more than 15 to 30 minutes earlier than your usual wake up time.

19.B 脚踝剧烈疼痛与挣扎着前行之间形成让步关系,故用Despite。

范文
It is reported that C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hinese middle school students are not as healthy as they used to be. There are quite a few reasons for this situation.
Firstly, we often eat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) too much meat, sugar, or junk food. It's our healthy diet that can keep us fit. We are supposed to balance our diet to eat food in a proper amount. We should take in more fruit and vegetables which are abundant in vitamins. Secondly, some of us kill time by playing computer games, watching TV and surfing the Internet, which contribute to being overweight. It is essential to get rid of those bad habits and take more exercise, like playing football, basketball. It goes without saying that outdoor activities can save us from being overweight. Thirdly, some often work deep into the night. But teenagers should sleep for at least 8 hours a day. Early to bed and early to rise.
As middle school stu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dents, we should take it seriously and immediate action should be taken to cope with the problem. Health is the guarantee of everything.

C
I remember a day wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en I was a little kid. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen when I noticed the date on one of the wine bottles.
“Dad, dad!” I cried. “This wine is too old to drink.”
“Son, hold on,” he said.
“No, you can't drin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k this tonight! This bottle of wine was made 10 years ago.”2·1·c·n·j·y
“Wait, let me tell you ...”
“Would you like me to throw it away for you?” I asked.
“Son, wait a second, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )” he said. “Son, some wines get better over time. The longer you wait to drink it, the better it will be. Although this may seem strange, it is true.”
When I was young, I di ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dn't have any understanding of what this meant, but now, this would have been very helpful to remember as I went through my teenage years.
In our society, we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) forget this simple rule: The longer you want for certain things, the better they will be. But we want the best job as quickly as possible; we want to graduate from college in as few years as possible; we even speed through our homework just to chat with friends. When we do this, we lose something of great importance.
We all want to get ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to the next step so quickly that perhaps we don't get ready enough to get there. This has a negative effect on our society. When trying to go to the right college, we will do anything to get in and when we rush through our classwork, we may not study enough for the test, and end up failing. We need to be ready for whatever comes, ready for the unexpected. Wine gets better over time, so do the things in our paths of life.
语篇解读 本文是夹叙夹议文。一瓶好酒需要 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )多年的窖藏,作者在多年后终于明白了其中蕴含的哲理。人生也是一样,过于急功近利往往达不到所要的结果,有所准备并经过慢慢积淀后成功往往会不期而至。
8.Why did the author tell his father not to drink the bottle of wine
A. Because it smelt terrible.
B. Because it was mixed with something else.
C. Because his father drank too much that night.
D. Because it had been kept for years.
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。由文中“我”和父亲的对话可知这瓶酒已酿造十年,酒是陈的香,故本题选D项。
9.What the author's father said ________.
A. made the author puzzled when he was a little child
B. was too simple a rule to be meaningful to the author
C. threw the author into deep thought then
D. was an excuse to drink the wine
答案与解析 A 细节理解题。由“我”与父亲的对话及倒数第三段可知,小时候的“我”并不理解父亲所说的话。
10.In the author' ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s opinion, if we do things too quickly, we will ________.
A. do it better
B. save much time
C. graduate from college more quickly
D. miss something useful to us in life
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。由倒数第二段最后一句可知,如果我们做事太急于求成,我们会错过人生中一些重要的东西。

答案与解析
语篇解读 Beth在机场候机时,看到一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )位老先生头发凌乱,神情沮丧,她走到老先生面前为他梳理头发。这一举动深深地感动了老先生。同时,老先生与妻子的故事也同样感动了Beth。爱,会让一个人的内心获得满足和幸福。21教育网
16.C 由上文可知,Beth在机场候机,所以这里应该是指她拿出杂志读(reading)来打发时间。www.21-cn-jy.com
17.A 由全文语境可知,这位老先生刚出院,身体虚弱,所以他坐着轮椅,由一名空姐推着(pushing)。21*cnjy*com
18.D 由下文Beth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )为这位老先生梳头,及倒数第四段how terrible my hair looked可知,这位老先生头发很乱(mess)。
19.C 由上文Beth对这位老先 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )生的第一印象ugly及本句中的wrinkled可推测,Beth觉得老先生看起来一点也不(not ... at all)友善。
20.A “Beth被老先生吸引了”与之前老先生给她的印象构成转折关系,故选but。
21.B 根据上文“Beth didn't know why”可知,毫无缘由地(For no reason),她想给老先生梳头。
22.D Beth主动走 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )上前要帮助老先生梳头,故May I have the honour of doing ...(我能有幸……)结构符合此处语境。
23.B 从下文Beth更大声地问同一个问题可以推知,Beth以为老先生听力(hearing)有问题。
24.D 根据Again可以推知,Beth重复了(repeated)前面的问题。
25.C 突然有人主动提出要为自己梳头,老先生自然很困惑(confused)。
26.A Beth为老先生梳头梳了很长时间,此处用worked表示梳头这一“工作”。
27.B 由上文for a lon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g time可推测,Beth已经为老先生梳头梳了很长时间,所以这里指就在她要梳完的时候,老先生哭了起来。故finish up(结束;完成)符合语境。
28.D 由全文不难得知,Beth对这位老先生很好,故此处温柔地(softly)看着老先生的眼睛,符合全文语境。
29.C 由老先生坐着轮椅,且在医院里待了将近两个月的事实可推测,他做了一个特殊的手术(operation)。
30.A 本空后引号里的内容是老先生接着上文所说的话,故added(继续说)符合语境。
31.D 由上半句老先生说自己担心头发看起来很糟糕可知,他不想让妻子看到自己看起来(looking)头发乱糟糟的。
32.B 当老先生谢谢(thanked) Beth为他梳头时,他泪流满面。
33.C 见下一题解析。
34.A 听完老先生的话,Beth感动得哭了(cried),那位空姐也(also)哭了起来。
35.A 根据下文Beth的回答可知,空姐问Beth她为什么(Why)那么做。
第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(每空不多于三个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式,并将答案填写在相应位置上。
A group of frogs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a pit (坑). When the other frogs saw how 36.________ (depth) the pit was, they told the two frogs 37.________ (trap) in the pit that they would surely die. The two frogs didn't listen to the others and tried to jump out of the pit with all 38.________ strength. The other frogs kept discouraging them from 39.________ (jump). Finally, one of the frogs got 40.________ (depress) and gave up, so he died.
The other frog we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nt on jumping as hard as he could. Once again, the other frogs cried at him and told him to stop and just allow himself to die. He jumped even 41.________ (hard) and finally made himself out. When 42.________ got out, the other frogs said, “Didn't you hear us?” The frog explained to them that something was wrong with his hearing. He thought they 43.________ (inspire) him the whole time.
There is powe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone 44.________ is down can lift him or her up and help them make it through the day. Be careful of what you say. Speak life to those who cross your path. The power of words — anyone can speak bad words that rob another of the spirit to go on in difficult times. But 45.________ encouraging word can go such a long way.
答案与解析
36.deep 根据空格前的how及空格后的the pit was可知空格处应填形容词deep。
37.trapped 所填词在句中作定语修饰frogs, trap与其逻辑主语two frogs为被动关系,故填过去分词形式作定语。
38.their 根据with all one's strength“用尽某人的气力”的用法可知该空填their。
39.jumping 根据di ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )scourage sb. from doing sth.“阻止某人做某事”的用法可知该空填动名词形式jumping。
40.depressed 所填词在句中作系动词got的表语,表“沮丧的;心灰意冷的”,故填depressed。
41.harder 根据空格前的比较级修饰语even,及句意“他更加努力的跳并最终跳出来”,可知该空填比较级harder。
42.he he用在此处指代跳出坑的青蛙。
43.were inspiring 所填词在句中作谓语,表过去一段时间内一直发生的动作,故用过去进行时态。
44.who/that 先行词是someone,空格后面的从句中缺少主语,故用关系代词who/that引导定语从句。
45.an an encouraging word“一句鼓励的话语”。

I've loved books ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) for as long as I can remember. When I was a child and my mother finished washing the evening dishes, she'd read books to me like Curious George and Little Black Sambo in her quiet voice. I always enjoyed listening to the stories, but I wanted to learn to read so that I could read to myself.21cnjy.com
When I was in firs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t grade I read Go Dog Go by myself. One weekend morning while my parents were still asleep, I got up and read the whole book. When my parents woke up, I told them what I'd done. First they felt quite astounded and couldn't believe their ears, but they soon felt proud.
Finally, I got a j ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ob in a bookstore and started buying books at a 30% discount (折扣). I kept every book I bought and whenever I looked at the books on my book shelf I felt a lot of excitement and energy. I loved all my books and I began collecting a lot of books. I have a home office with twelve book shelves and two large book cases. My office was filled with books. Every shelf was filled with books and the built in desk that was completely covered by books that ran across the whole surface of the desk. I even had books lying on the floor.21·世纪*教育网
There was one big ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) problem with this. My wife wanted to use the built in desk and she repeatedly asked me to create space for her. I finally decided to clear out some of the books. In fact, I removed about half the books I owned. Not only was the desk completely clear, some book shelves were only half full. To my surprise, I felt a new sense of peace and freedom.

Summer school ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is something a kid will never forget. For some, it's a way to advance past their classmates. For most, summer school is a requirement in order to graduate with their classmates. I can remember being forced into taking a summer school course. It was not the school that forced me into this awkward situation; it was my mother.21·cn·jy·com
I was a 16 year ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )old kid in a new school. My school did not offer summer courses so I had to take my course at an alternative school in the city. It was an experience I will never forget. I was not concerned with making friends. I was there to get credit (学分) for a course that I should have received credit for the previous semester. It was my doing that landed me in the situation and it was important that I understood this.
The fees were low ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )est but the experience was amazing. I enjoyed. I didn't miss the day. The course was from Monday to Friday for an entire month. I passed the course with an A. I was thrown into an awkward situation and actually enjoyed it. My friends didn't even know I took the course. Most of them were still sleeping by the time my course ended each day. 21*cnjy*com
Awkward situations ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are so important for personal growth. This situation made me feel more independent. I made friends. I finally understood what sacrifice and hard work were all about. While attending college, I remembered how much I enjoyed summer school and I chose to take summer school in my first three years of college. Some kids get pushed too much but some don't get pushed enough. I was never pushed enough.
Enable your child ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ren to struggle for success. If your child needs summer school you explain to them why it's important. Some parents are surprised by the situation and may want to be more involved in their children's education. Follow through and follow up.【版权所有:21教育】

答案与解析
语篇解读 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了作者请一位流浪者吃饭并赠予他微笑卡的故事。
16.B 由下文的“a small dis ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h of yogurt”及第三段中的“I had this full plate of food”可推测,作者坐在一家泰国“餐馆(restaurant)”。
17.C 由下文的“sc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )raping the sides of the dish to get it all out”可推测,该男子很饿,因而他吃酸奶的速度很快,故选quickly。2·1·c·n·j·y
18.B 由下文的“I saw a sad, lonely man”可知,此处指作者的目光和男子的目光“相遇(met)”。
19.D 见下一题解析。
20.C 由上文的“He had dirt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on his coat and pants”可推测,男子在室外“睡觉(sleeping)”,因而作者肯定地认为他“无家可归(homeless)”。
21.B 由下文的“I had ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) this full plate of food ... he had nothing”可知,作者感到很“糟糕(terrible)”。
22.D “I had this full plate of food”与“he had nothing”形成鲜明对比,故选but。
23.D 见下一题解析。
24.C 由下一段中的“I paid f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )or another plate of food ...”可推测,作者问男子是否“饿(hungry)”。男子点头并用手势表示自己没有“钱(money)”。
25.A 由下文的“he was behind me”可知,作者让男子“跟(Follow)”他走。
26.B 由下文的“him to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) pick anything he wanted”可知,作者为该男子又买了一份食物,这使得他可以尽情享用美食,故选allowed。
27.A 由上文男子很饿的事实可知,此处应该是说男子盘中的食物堆得很“高(high)”。
28.D 当男子享用食物时,作者时不时地“看看(watched)”他。
29.C 由第三段中的“I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) looked at my food and felt ... I went over and asked him if he was ...”可推测,作者帮男子买食物之前并没有吃完自己的东西,帮男子买单后才回到座位继续吃,因而此处指作者“吃(eating)”完。
30.C 男子很饿,只顾着享用自己的食物,作者向他告别并赠送卡片时,他都顾不上“抬头看(look up)”。21教育名师原创作品
31.B 由上文的“I rememb ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ered the smile card ... I gladly passed it to him”可知,此处指作者将微笑“卡(card)”放到男子的面前。
32.D 由but可知,上文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的“He did not ...”与下文的“said ‘Thank you’”是转折关系,故此处应选“clearly (清楚地)”。
33.C 由下文的“with all of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) my heart that my last smile card had brought a smile to ...”可知,作者“希望(hoped)”那张微笑卡已经让男子脸上绽放微笑。
34.D 由下文的“he would also ...”可知,此处表示“未来(future)”的某一天。
35.A 由语境可知,作者希望男子将来有“机会(opportunity)”将那张微笑卡传递下去。

My brother was born in 1970, 44.________. He could be my brother. He is probably someone's brother. My wish for him is that he gets his life 45.________ (sort) out and finds a place he can call home.
答案与解析
36.saying 所填词在句中作定语修饰名词sign,且sign与say为逻辑上的主动关系,故用现在分词形式作定语。
37.on/with have nothing on/with sb.“某人身上没带东西”。
38.When when“当……时候”引导时间状语从句。
39.that 空格前的and连接两个宾语从句作动词said的宾语,空格后的句子在结构和意义上均完整,故用that引导宾语从句。
40.sank 所填词在句中作谓语,表过去的动作,应用一般过去式,故填sank。
41.the 该空填定冠词the,特指“我”给他的那张银行支票。
42.best 根据空格所在句句意“这是今天我收到的最好的礼物”及空格前的定冠词the,可知该空填最高级best。
43.truth tell the truth“说实话”。
44.too too“也”,用于肯定句句末。
45.sorted sort ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sth. out“整理;安排某物”, sort out与其逻辑主语his life为被动关系,故用过去分词形式作宾补,填sorted。

(时间:90分钟 满分:110分)
第一部分 阅读理解(共两节;满分30分)
第一节 (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
When I was growing up ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in the 1930s, the period of the Great Depression, I didn't think of our family as poor, even though we never seemed to have money. I lived on a small farm in Pennsylvania with my parents, two elder sisters, and a younger brother. We had an old horse, a cow, a few pigs, some chickens, and a big garden. Food was not a problem. We had our own supply of milk, meat, eggs, fresh vegetables, and Momma's homemade bread.21·cn·jy·com
As a boy of nine, I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) had only a vague (模糊的) idea of what it meant to live during hard times. The weekly newspaper would carry pictures of people standing in line for bread, and the evening broadcast would tell about the huge number of jobless people and their hardships. But these reports referred to people in the cities, and we lived in the country. We never went to bed hungry, and we didn't stand in line for bread.
Although my fat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )her was fortunate to have a job at the feed mill (饲料加工厂), eighteen dollars a week was only enough to pay the electric bill and to buy necessities. Momma earned a few dollars baking pies and bread.
To make nightc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lothes, Momma used the cotton bags in which the food for our chickens came. It wasn't until years later when my high school class went on an overnight trip that I got my first store bought nightwear.
When a piece of cloth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing was worn out, it wasn't thrown away. First, all the buttons were removed, grouped by size and colour, and put in cans or glass jars. Then the clothing was examined, and the best parts were saved for making rugs (地毯). Almost nothing in our house was thrown away.21*cnjy*com
Although we tend to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )think of recycling as something fairly new, in the 1930s it was part of everyday life. “Waste not, want not” was a familiar and often repeated phrase during those Depression years.
语篇解读 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了经济大萧条时期作者一家人的生活状况。
1.The author di ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dn't think of his family as poor in the 1930s mainly because ________.
A. they had much money
B. they lived in a big city
C. they had enough food
D. they stood in line for bread
答案与解析 C 推理判断题。由第一段中的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Food was not a problem. We had our own supply of milk, meat, eggs, fresh vegetables, and Momma's homemade bread”可知,作者之所以认为家里不穷,主要是因为他家在乡下,生活上自给自足,有足够的食物。
2.When did the author have his first nightwear bought for him
A. On his ninth birthday.
B. After his father found a job.
C. The day before he went to high school.
D. Before an overnight trip in his high school.
答案与解析 D 细节理解题 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。由第四段中的“It wasn't until years later when my high school class went on an overnight trip that I got my first store bought nightwear”可知。
3.Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.
A. how rugs were made
B. what they did with old clothes
C. why nothing was thrown away
D. when to throw away a piece of clothing
答案与解析 B 段落大意题。由第五 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段中的“First, all the buttons were removed ... Then the clothing was examined ...”可知,本段主要讲的是家里如何处理破衣服。
4.The author writes the text mainly to ________.
A. introduce his family members
B. compare life in the 1930s with life today
C. tell the difference between city life and country life
D. describe his family's life during the Great Depression
答案与解析 D 写作目的题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者一家人在经济大萧条时期的生活状况,故D项正确。
B
For me, my grea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t moment came when I actually decided to accept an opportunity to teach English in Shanghai. There were times when I almost gave up because of fear. But in the end I came here.
Last summer, a Ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nadian Chinese woman who teaches in Shanghai just happened to come to the place where I was working in the Seattle area. We talked and I said I had always wanted to teach abroad. She said, “Come to our school.” “Okay,” I replied, but I wasn't sure if I meant it.
We met later for coffe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e. She answered all of my questions about the school, and gave me the website address and the email address of the person to contact. It took six months for me to finally decide on the job.
First of all, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in Shanghai there are many western places to eat western food and lots of interesting things to do. Also, there is a great subway system with directions and stops posted in English. Finding your way around is a challenge in a new place. But that isn't hard here. Taxis are very cheap; you can always jump in one and get home. There are also a lot of westerners in Shanghai, so it is fairly easy to ask for directions. Young Chinese people are much more likely to speak English and they are wonderfully helpful.
I earn almost $1,00 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )0 per month and live in a nice rent free apartment. My biggest expense has been food as I am a vegetarian (素食者) and also on a diet. I still have not got used to the traditional Chinese food, but if you like it, you'll be in heaven.www-2-1-cnjy-com
Here I have a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) good place to live in, new friends, a high salary, and a good job. In the US, getting a job at my age has been next to impossible for a woman.
5.We can infer that at first the writer ________.
A. wasn't interested in teaching abroad at all
B. wasn't sure whether to accept the job to teach in Shanghai
C. knew she would be popular as a teacher in China
D. thought the Canadian Chinese woman was joking
答案与解析 B 推理判断题。根据第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一段第二句“There were times when I almost gave up because of fear.”以及第三段最后一句“It took six months for me to finally decide on the job.”可知一开始,作者不是很确定是否要去上海教学。
6.According to the passage, it seems that ________.
A. there are no good restaurants for the writer in Shanghai
B. the writer sometimes feels lonely in Shanghai
C. the writer doesn't like travelling in Shanghai
D. the writer likes her life in Shanghai
答案与解析 D 推理判断题。作者在第四段描 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )述了在上海生活的便利,在最后一段表明作者在上海有居住的地方、有朋友、高工资和好工作,故可推断她很喜欢在上海的生活。
7.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. Living in a new place.
B. Dealing with a challenge.
C. Finding your way around.
D. Taking a taxi.
答案与解析 C 推理判断题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第四段第三句“Finding your way around is a challenge in a new place.”以及转折的语境可知,画线词指代的是前面“找路”一事。21cnjy.com
C
Almost everyone feel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s sleepy sometimes during the time. Being sleepy may get in the way of your daily work, childcare, and even activities for fun. Here are some ways to improve nighttime sleep and avoid daytime sleepiness. 21*cnjy*com
1. Get adequate nighttime sleep.
That may sound ob ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vious, but many of us cut down an hour or two off our sleep time in the morning or at night to do other things. Most adults need seven to nine hours a night, and teenagers usually need a full hours. Block out eight or nine hours for sleep every night.21教育名师原创作品
2. Keep distractions out of bed.
“Remember your be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d is only for sleep,” says the scientist. “You shouldn't read, watch TV, play video games, or use laptop computers in bed.” Don't do your bills or have heated discussions in bed, either. They may leave you sleepless.
3. Form a good habit.
You should form a good ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) habit of going to bed and getting up at the same time at night and in the morning, including on weekends.
4. Gradually move to an earlier bedtime.
Another way of ge ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tting into a consistent schedule is to try going to bed 15 minutes earlier each night for four nights. Then stick with the last bedtime. Slowly getting used to your schedule like this usually works better than suddenly trying to go to sleep an hour earlier.
5. Set consistent, healthy mealtimes.
Regular mealtimes, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) not just regular sleep times, help regulate our circadian rhythms (生理节奏). Eat a healthy breakfast and lunch on time instead of grabbing a piece of cake and coffee in the morning or a late sandwich on the run. Try to finish eating meals two or three hours before bedtime.
6. Exercise.
Regular exerci ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se offers many benefits for sleep. Exercise generally makes it easier to fall asleep and sleep more soundly.

People say going ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to college will change your life and that everyone should have the chance to challenge themselves with a college experience. But my parents never had that opportunity. __11__
All during hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gh school I wondered if I would go to college and if I would have what my parents never had. I would think about my future, about college and what I wanted to do when I grew up. But then there were thoughts of not going, of believing what others said about college and thinking I had no chance to go.
As I reached the en ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d of junior year, I knew I needed to make a decision. __12__ I felt somewhat sad. One day I was having a conversation with my volleyball coach. We talk all the time, but that day college was the topic. __13__ However, what she told me was encouraging. Thoughts flew through my mind about what I wanted to become and what colleges I might be interested in. She mentioned things I had no idea about, like scholarships and financial aid that can help you pay for college. All this information inspired me to continue. She told me about her college experience and all the fun times she'd had. __14__
This conversation ch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )anged me. __15__ If I hadn't talked with her, I wouldn't know where I would be today. I now want to make something of myself. I want to become somebody that I wasn't before. I want to go to college.
A. She knew my family could not easily afford my college expenses.
B. They didn't have the money or family to help or motivate them.
C. It made me ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )feel comfortable with myself and helped me believe in myself.
D. She made the decision that she should continue her education.
E. She told me not to miss out on it because I would regret it.

G. I didn't have money and knew my parents didn't either.

答案与解析
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。每个人在生活中都有不幸的事。当我们牢记这一点时,我们与别人的交往也就变得容易了。2-1-c-n-j-y
16.B 根据语境可知生活卡片跟商业名片相似(similar),但也有不同之处。
17.D 本空前recording有提示。
18.B 既然是life card,那么列举的应该是生活(life)中已经发生的事。
19.A 你想让对方在和你打交道之前了解(know)这些事,而不用你花费时间去解释。
20.C 由下文的“She ta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lks about having to deal with insensitive comments”可知,她谈到了自己的经历(experiences)。【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
21.B 由上文的insensitive comments可知,这里填uncomfortable符合语境。【版权所有:21教育】
22.C 有些谈话令人不舒服是因为这些人不知道发生过(happened)什么事情。
23.D 她希望能有属于自己的(own)生活卡片。
24.A 见下一题解析。

27.D 见下一题解析。
28.C 有了这些信息(information),其他人跟你交谈时就会注意自己的言语(words),避免对你造成伤害。
29.B 由上文的harm可知,这里说的是我们必须忍受他人给我们造成的伤害(hurt)。
30.A 我们得忍受那些不知情(understand)的人对我们的言语伤害。understand与know表达的意思一致。
31.B 也许,这会让我们变得更坚强,或者至少让我们学会了(learn)保护自己。
32.D 见下一题解析。
33.C 这些伤害教会(teach)我们的是,在跟别人打交道时,我们需要把生活卡片的主意记在心(mind)上。
34.A 你在生活中会遇到不幸,记住(remember),其他人也都有自己的不幸。
35.C “记住别人也有不幸”和“采取不同的态度对待别人”之间是顺承关系,故选and。
第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(每空不多于三个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式,并将答案填写在相应位置上。
In the past there 36 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ).________ (live) a foolish man in a small kingdom called Zheng. One day he wanted to buy himself a pair of new shoes. He measured his feet with a ruler 37.________ (clumsy) and wrote down his size. But he was in such a hurry to set out 38.________ he left it at home.
39.________ he arri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ved at a shoe shop, he felt in the pocket only 40.________ (find) that it was not there.

答案与解析
36.lived 根据空格前的there可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )知该句为全部倒装句,又根据空格前的时间状语in the past可知谓语应用一般过去时,故本空填lived。
37.clumsily 所填词在句中作状语修饰动词measured,应用副词形式,故填clumsily“笨拙地”。
38.that 根据空格前的su ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ch a hurry及句意“但是他走得如此匆忙以至于把尺寸落在了家中”可知该空属于such ... that ...“如此……以至于……”句式,故填that。
39.When 根据句意“当他到了鞋店时,他一摸口袋结果发现尺寸没带”可知该空填When“当……时候”。
40.to find 根据句意结合only to do sth.“结果做某事”的用法可知该空填不定式表出乎意料的结果。
41.instantly instantly“一……就……”引导时间状语从句。
42.a a second time“又一次”。
43.to go 根据It ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )takes/took sb. some time to do sth.“花某人……时间做某事”的用法可知该空填to go。
44.complain 根据ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve nothing to do but do sth.“无事可做只得做某事”的用法可知该空填complain。
45.curiosity 此处应填名词作介词with的宾语, with curiosity“好奇地”。

第一部分 阅读理解(共两节;满分30分)
第一节 (共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Here is some news of the future.
March 20, 2035
There was a lo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t of news around the life extension drugs that hit the market a decade ago. They didn't promise that you would live forever, but they gave you a chance to extend your life an extra five to ten years. Even though the life expectancy rate at birth has increased greatly, the life expectancy for seniors hasn't improved that much. Basically, you have a greater chance to become a senior, but you will not have a much longer lifespan, and this is where the anti aging drugs intend to kick in. So, do the anti aging drugs work Well, it is too early to tell. But the sales so far are very good.
April 19, 2035
Of the total US p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )opulation of 378 million, people over 65 years old now make up 20% for the first time. The senior ratio was only 4.1% in 1900, and 12.4% 30 years ago.21cnjy.com
The number of peo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ple above 65, compared to those of what is considered working ages, between 15 and 64, is currently 33.7%. This is up from 18.5% in the year 2005, which means that for every retired person there are now two workers, compared to four workers 30 years ago. The number of people above the age of 80 has grown to 23.8 million, making them 6.3% of the total population compared to 3.6% in 2005.
April 12, 2040
Although introduced ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in the market only five years ago, 10% of all hydrogen fuel now sold in the US is of the environmentally friendly Re Hydro label, produced through electrolysis (电解) based on a source of 100% renewable energy. Several producers have turned to producing Re Hydro, mainly because of lower tax, which also keeps the price of Re Hydro on the same level as regular hydrogen. Most analysts believe that Re Hydro will be the dominating fuel in the future.
语篇解读 本文摘取了关于未来的三则新闻,涉及延长寿命的药物,美国的老龄化问题以及环保能源的使用。
1.The sales of th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e life extension drugs so far clearly show that ________.
A. people have no faith in them
B. people want to give them a try
C. they work very well for seniors
D. they have no effect on people's health
答案与解析 B 推理判断题。根据第一则新闻 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )中的“So, do the ... But the sales so far are very good.”可知,虽然现在还不能确定这种药是否有作用,但到目前为止,这种药卖得很好,说明人们愿意试一试。
2.What can we learn from the second news
A. Many Americans will find it hard to find a job.
B. It's very hard for seniors to pass the age of 80.
C. The US population has been increasing rapidly since 2005.
D. The US population has been aging rapidly since 2005.
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第二则新闻中的“April 19,2035”以及“Of the total US population of 378 million, people over 65 years old now make up 20% for the first time. The senior ratio was only 4.1% in 1900, and 12.4% 30 years ago.”可知,美国65岁以上的老人在总人口中所占的比率从2005年的12.4%增长到2035年的20%,这说明从2005年开始美国人口老龄化的速度很快。21世纪教育网版权所有
3.What can we infer from the third news
A. Re Hydro will be widely used in the future.
B. The government discourages the production of Re Hydro.
C. Producers are not interested in producing Re Hydro.
D. Re Hydro is more expensive than regular hydrogen.
答案与解析 A 推理判断题。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )根据第三则新闻中的“Most analysts believe that Re Hydro will be the dominating fuel in the future.”可推知,这种能源将来会被广泛使用。
B
Big Ben, the Q ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ueen, a plate of ham and eggs — no, no, no. If you're looking for a symbol of Britain, only one thing passes the test — the umbrella.
Now, I know what ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you're thinking — we have rain in China and we have umbrellas too. Certainly, I will never forget the way it rained when I lived in Beijing: the streets became instant (立即的) rivers and the sky flashed with lightning for hours on end. People dove (冲) for cover under bin bags, the shops sold out their plastic ponchos (斗篷) within seconds, and I found myself soaked (浸透) from head to foot, my poorly chosen skirt and T shirt now totally see through.21·世纪*教育网
This would never have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )happened in Britain. For one thing, during my year in Beijing, it only really rained about 10 times. But although we never get a Beijing style washout in London, the drizzle (毛毛雨) that does fall is all but constant. Even when the sky is perfectly blue, you can be sure it's going to cloud over and start drizzling again within the hour.
And when it doe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s, there is chaos. Trains stop, drains (下水道) block, and buses break down as if this was the first time the local authorities had seen this wet stuff coming out of the clouds.
So — as with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) so many things in the UK — it's up to ordinary people to sort themselves out. No self respecting Briton will ever leave home without his umbrella.
An umbrella ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )has hundreds of uses, even on rare rain free days. A real gentleman of London will use his umbrella as a walking stick. A traditional game of cricket (板球) can be played using an umbrella as a bat (球棒). Nor do you ever have to be afraid of robbers — your umbrella doubles as a defensive (防卫的) weapon.
There is no umbrella m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ore British than my own. But it's not from London or Manchester or anywhere in the UK. It was a gift from my Chinese teacher — in Beijing.
How fitting th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at my No. 1 symbol of Britishness — like almost everything in Britain — was made in China.
4.The author ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) mentioned her rainy weather experience in Beijing to show that ________.
A. many foreigners have embarrassing moments living in Beijing
B. the rain in Beijing is usually much heavier than that in London
C. British people are more used to rainy weather than Chinese people
D. both Beijin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gers and Londoners have unpleasant experiences with sudden rain
答案与解析 C 推理判断题。根据上下 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文可知作者谈到自己在中国遇到大雨浑身被浇透的尴尬经历,对比在英国人们很少会这样。因为英国人对于下雨的天气司空见惯,多有防备。
5.The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”.
A. people getting extremely wet on rainy days
B. sudden rain leading to traffic troubles
C. people being well prepared on rainy days
D. it only raining a dozen times per year
答案与解析 A 词义猜测题。根据上文的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“soaked from head to foot, my poorly chosen skirt and T shirt now totally see through”可知作者指的是浑身湿透的尴尬经历。www.21-cn-jy.com
6.The underlined word “chaos” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A. doubt B. excitement
C. joy D. disorder
答案与解析 D 词义猜测题。后文提到的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Trains stop, drains block, and buses break down”都会造成混乱,故选D项。21·cn·jy·com
7.What is the main idea of the article
A. Beijing style rain and London style drizzles both bring chaos.
B. Everything in Britain was made in China.
C. Why the umbrella is the best symbol of Britain.
D. What British people use an umbrella for.
答案与解析 C 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了为什么雨伞会成为英国的一大文化标志。
C
Visiting the Moon
During his t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erm in office, President Kennedy gave full funding to NASA — the space agency. He did this because he wanted to see Americans land on the moon. In July 1969 three men fulfilled Kennedy's dream during the Apollo 11 mission. Thousands of people had worked for years in order to send them to the moon. There had been 10 prior Apollo missions. One had failed, but the others were successful. Finally it was time to try a moon landing.
Their spacecraft ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )took off from NASA in Houston, Texas. A Saturn 5 rocket carried the astronauts and their spacecraft into orbit. They blasted through space at speeds as fast as 25,000 miles per hour (40,234 kph). Even at that incredible speed, it took four days to reach the moon. The men had a special craft designed only for landing on the moon. This lunar module was called The Eagle.
After The Eag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le landed, Neil Armstrong stepped out onto the moon. People all over the world watched on their television sets as he said, “That's_one_small_step_for_man,_one_giant_leap_for_mankind.” Buzz Aldrin followed Armstrong onto the moon's surface, but Michael Collins stayed circling the moon in the main spacecraft. He had to make sure that nothing happened to the spacecraft that would take them home.
The astronauts ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) moved around on the moon, gathering rocks and taking photographs. They did many experiments on the moon. Before they left, they planted an American flag in the ground in the place where they landed. Next to it they put a plaque that read, “We came in peace for all mankind.” The flag and the plaque are still there.
Some people th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ink that moon travel may become common. They want to build hotels on the moon and have people go on lunar vacations! If that happens, people will visit the site of the first moon landing. They will stand where Neil Armstrong made history.
8.Where did the astronauts put a US flag
A. On the lunar buggy.
B. On the moon.
C. On the Saturn 5 rocket.
D. On their spacecraft.
答案与解析 B 细节理解题。由 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文章第四段第三句“Before they left, they planted an American flag in the ground in the place where they landed.”可知答案为B项。
9.On a historical time line, what happened first
A. Astronauts went into the space shutter.
B. Neil Armstrong walked on the moon.
C. The Apollo 13 had an emergency.
D. President Kennedy gave full funding to NASA.
答案与解析 D 细节理解题。根据文章前三段可知肯尼迪总统为NASA拨款为最先发生的事件,故选D项。
10.What did Armst ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rong mean by saying “... one giant leap for mankind.”?
A. It was a really big step down from the spacecraft.
B. It was a moment o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f major progress for a human to step onto the moon.
C. Only men should go to the moon.
D. He could do big leaps on the moon because of its low gravity.
答案与解析 B 语意理解题。结合文章的具体语境,可知此处为人类登上月球是一大飞跃,故选B项。

The professor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) always had tons of brilliant ideas — but they never worked.

答案与解析
语篇解读 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了一位爱异想天开的教授的故事。
16.B 根据文章首句的“Th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e professor always had tons of brilliant ideas”可知,教授总梦想有个绝对能改变世界的“令人惊奇的(amazing)”主意。2·1·c·n·j·y
17.C 由人们所说的“改变世界?他连 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )换灯泡都不会”可知,人们开教授的“玩笑(joked)”。下文的“all the jokes”也是提示。
18.D 由However一词的转折和教授的never gave up可知,他“不理会(ignored)”大家的嘲笑。【出处:21教育名师】
19.A 由下文的“He thought so hard”可知,教授爱思考,一天下课后,他决定去“思考(think)”。21教育名师原创作品
20.D “制造一台时间机器”是有一天教授思考后想到的,这是他的一个“梦想(dream)”。
21.C 教授要造的不是一台旧的时间机器,“而是(but)”一个能创造时间的新机器。
22.B 由下文的“Wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y not make a machine that can create more time when you need it?”可知,教授要造一台时间机器是因为人们常常抱怨“时间(time)”不够用。
23.D 有了要造时间机器的想法后,教 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )授“急切地(eager)”想要创造出这个改变世界的发明。此处呼应了文章首段的“he would dream up ... idea that was sure to change the world”。
24.B 由上文的“His wife, M ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ildred, wasn't so sure about his great idea”可知,教授的妻子认为他的主意是不会实现的,因为他不可能制造时间。
25.C 由下文教授说的话可知,他并“不同意(disagreed)”妻子的想法。
26.A 见下一题解析。
27.D 教授的妻子认为教授所做的事情就是在浪费时间,她认为教授“荒唐(crazy)”,因此是对教授“抱怨(complained)”。
28.A 要制造时间机器,教授自然是尝试了他所能想到的每一个“办法(method)”。
29.B 由上文的“... wasn't ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) just any old time machine ... an invention that would create time”可知,教授想要制造的时间机器是“独一无二的(unique)”。
30.C 见下一题解析。
31.B 尝试了他所能想到的所有办法后, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )教授又“想起(remembered)”一句谚语“时光飞逝”。于是他把表扔出了窗外,看这句谚语是否是“真的(true)”。
32.B 由“the banker wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uldn't give him the time of day”可知,教授想向银行借时间,但“令人伤心的是(Sadly)”,银行没有答应。
33.A 根据本句的“a way ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to save time and give him lots of extra time”可知,教授最后有一个惊人的“发现(discovery)”。
34.D 教授发现,如果他“放弃(give up on)”时间机器的计划,那他就会有更多的时间做其他事。
35.B 面对教授的幡然醒 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )悟,教授妻子“笑了(smiled)”。此处呼应了上文教授妻子的态度(Mildred ... The only thing you're doing with time is wasting it ...)。
第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(每空不多于三个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式,并将答案填写在相应位置上。

John: That's good. D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ust is really 40.________ (harm) to our lungs. I know that because my family lives near a steel factory with a chimney constantly 41.________ (pour) out black smoke.【版权所有:21教育】
Mary: Oh, you liv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e near the steel factory Is it true that we shouldn't eat the fish from the lake near the steel factory
John: Yes, that's true ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) — the lake has been 42.________ (pollute) by waste from the steel factory.
Mary: Why don't they do anything to clean up the pollution
John: They a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lways promise, 43.________ never act. A bit of action is 44.________ we need.
Mary: You're 45.________.
答案与解析
36.it it指代John所说话中提到的that factory。
37.owners 根据句意“但最近我听说工厂的主人已许诺采取措施减少他们工厂的污染”及上下文中的代词they,可知该空填owners。
38.a 该空填不定冠词a,表“一个”。
39.can/will 根据空格所在句句意“这种机器能清除烟中的灰尘”可知该空填情态动词can/will。
40.harmful 所填词在句中作表语,应用形容词形式harmful。be harmful to“对……有害的”。
41.pouring 在空格所在的with结构中, pour与其逻辑主语chimney为主动关系,故用现在分词形式作宾补。
42.polluted pollute与lake为被动关系,故该空填过去分词形式,表被动。
43.but 根据句意“他们总是许诺但是不采取行动”可知该空前后两句为转折关系,且空格后无逗号,故填but。
44.what what引导名词性从句作表语。
45.right/correct You are right/correct.“你说的对。”

In the winter mon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ths the temperature in most of Canada usually stays below 0℃. However, in some parts of Canada, such as southern British Columbia, the temperature rarely goes below 0℃. In most areas where people live, snow will be on the ground from mid December to mid March. Though Canada's winter may be much colder and longer than you are used to, it can be very enjoyable. For many Canadians, being active in winter is an important part of enjoying life. There are many outdoor winter activities, including skiing, ice fishing, walking, and skating. Joining in one of these activities may help you appreciate winter and enjoy your time outside in the snow.
Dressing for winter
During winter in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Canada, you will need warm clothing. If possible, arrive with these items or be prepared to buy them soon after your arrival. You will need:
☆ warm waterproof boots
☆ a scarf for your neck
☆ a hat that covers your ears
☆ gloves for your hands
☆ thick winter coats, pants and sweaters
Layers keep you warm
It's a good idea to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )layer your clothing by, for example, wearing a T shirt and a sweater underneath a jacket. If you become too hot, it's always easier to remove a piece of clothing than to add another. On the West Coast, prepare to dress for cool rainy or snowy weather. You will need:
☆ a warm waterproof coat
☆ waterproof hats
☆ an umbrella
☆ rain boots or snow boots

It's not that hard t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o be a better writer. Seriously, it's especially true if you're starting as a non writer who's just trying to be competent for day to day tasks.
Have a structure ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). __11__ Your body should consist of paragraphs that are grouped according to topic, each one dealing with a single element of your subject.
__12__ When yo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )u say a car runs “fast”, don't leave it at that. Show me how fast it is by detailing the vehicle's top speed and acceleration, along with listing other cars it leaves in the dust. Do the same with every other significant modifier (修饰语) you use.
Don't pad words. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )__13__ Most of the time, this ends up turning what's essentially nice writing into unreadable nonsense. You'll see this with heavy use of unnecessary adjectives and adverbs, along with useless phrases that can easily be cut off without losing meaning.
Choose good words. So ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )metimes, the way your text reads comes down to word choice. Don't say “converse” when you can say “speak”; don't write “adjudicate” when you can say “decide”. __14__
Use a writing so ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ftware. Notice that we didn't give any advice on grammar. That's because using a quality proofreading software can help you on that end. __15__
A. Try not to use ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) adjectives and adverbs without providing an explanation.
B. Don't let anything keep you from it!
C. Many inexperienced ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )writers tend to pad words to meet word count goals.
D. Regardless of wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at you do, your writing should have an introduction and a conclusion.
E. Basically ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), put your words to good use and find words that will make the experience easier for your readers.
F. Some ideas can be quite correct.
G. Sure, a few mistake ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s might slip in now and then, but a good tool will take care of most of them.

16.C 由第一句中的“became blind”可知,此处指“恢复(regain)”视力。
17.A but表转折关系,说明他出价高也无人“回应(response)”。下一段也是提示。
18.B 见下一题解析。
19.A 由“... had ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )done many unkind things”可知, Peter恃财“自傲(proud)”,做了很多坏事,“名声(reputation)”不好。21*cnjy*com

21.B 由语境可知,他别无“选择(choice)”只能等待。
22.C 倒数第二段的“sat on the square”是本空的依据。
23.D “enjoy the sunsh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ine”与“saw nothing but darkness”之间为转折关系,故用However。

25.B 由Peter的反应可知,他很“生气(annoyed)”。
26.D 由下文内容可知,是一个“男孩(boy)”撞到了Peter。
27.C 由下文两个人对话可知,Peter想让男孩和他“聊天(chat)”。
28.A 由“his face ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lit up with a smile”可知,男孩同意聊天, Peter“高兴地(happily)”点了点头。21教育网
29.D 由男孩说的话可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )知,他在给Peter“描绘(describing)”周围的风景。倒数第二段中的“What he just described”也是提示。
30.D 由Peter质问上帝的话“你为什么给这个孩子光明”可知,他开始“嫉妒(envy)”男孩。
31.B 由语境可知,“突然(Suddenly)”,心理失衡的Peter狂躁不已,朝着天空大喊。
32.A 由后面的“nothing but ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a pair of eyes”可知,Peter认为男孩除了眼睛以外,“穷(poor)”得一无所有。 21*cnjy*com
33.C 由后面的“My son is t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oo poor to have eyes”可知,男孩的妈妈说Peter说得“不对(wrong)”。【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】

35.C 由“The dono ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r was the very millionaire named Peter”可知,此后市慈善会每年都会“收到(receive)”Peter捐赠的钱。

答案与解析
36.for leave for sp.“出发去某地”。
37.prepared 在“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have+宾语+宾补”结构中, prepare与其逻辑主语everything为被动关系,故用过去分词形式作宾补。
38.paid 根据句意“你付了学费了吗?”及空格前面的have可知该空填paid。
39.if 根据句意“如果你不交费,你就会失去上课时间表而且你得重新注册”可知该空填if“如果”,引导条件状语从句。【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
40.so/so that 根据句意“你登记大学的饮食计划了吗,因此你就不必每天吃快餐面了”可知该空填so/so that“因此”。
41.and and前后连接并列的名词rice和food。
42.appointment make an appointment with sb.“与某人约定”。
43.to help 不定式作状语表目的。
44.a make a difference“有意义;有影响”。

范文
Dear_Peter,
You_are_very_u ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pset_that_your_parents_don't_permit_you_to_attend_a_hip hop_training_course_on_the_weekend. I understand your situation. Maybe your parents are worried that you will spend so much time on it that your study will be affected.
I suggest you ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve a good talk with your parents. You can also turn to your dance teacher for help. You should make your parents aware of the benefits of the training class. For example, the training will build up your body and make your mind relaxed. What's more, you can communicate with more people and learn a lot about society. Of course, you must promise that you will not spend too much time on it.
I'm sure your parents will agree with you in the end.21·世纪*教育网
Yours,
Jack
