Ⅰ.阅读理解
What a day!I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I'd been at the school for a hundred years!
The day started very early at 7?00 a.m. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me.If they didn't love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn't stop laughing.
My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together!It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.
I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school. I only hope that my new friends feel the same way too.

A letter to my children on their first day of school

As we got in the car —I wanted to tell you not everyone will have things in common with you. 4. . They may pleasantly surprise you.
As I drove the few blocks to school—I wanted to tell you to listen when the teacher speaks, when someone new talks about themselves, etc. 5. .
As you got out of the car I gave you each a kiss and a hug and said—“Just be yourself, and remember how much I love you. I'll be waiting to hear all about your experiences this afternoon.”

F.Listening is one of those skills that will come in handy later in life
G.The simple act of smiling can be the beginning of a beautiful friendship
文章大意:本文是一篇书信。在信中, 作者对两个孩子Olivia和Evan讲了新的学校、新的学期开学第一天应该注意的六点事项。
解析:
1. 上文“I understand worrying about finding your way both physically and socially. You'll spend a lifetime finding your way.”提到作者理解孩子们对寻找自己的路很担忧, 并鼓励孩子们用一生的时间寻找适合自己的路。因此推断作者应该激励孩子不要放弃。A项“Never give up(永远不要放弃)”符合语境。故选A项。
2. 下文“I believe a smile is worth at least that much.(我相信微笑的价值比那多)”提到了微笑的重要性。选项中只有G项“The simple act of smiling can be the beginning of a beautiful friendship(微笑这一简单的举动可能是一段美好友谊的开始)”符合语境。故选G项。
3. 本文是以时间为顺序组织的, 上文三段开头分别是“As I opened my eyes this morning(当我在今天早上睁开眼的时候)”, “As I quietly entered your room and softly kissed you awake(当我安静地进入你们的房间叫醒你们的时候)”和“As I stood at the bathroom door while you brushed your teeth(当你们刷牙我站在浴室门口的时候)”, 接下来应该是吃早餐。因此C项“As you ate your breakfast(当你们吃早餐的时候)”符合语境。故选C项。
4. 上文“I wanted to tell you not everyone will have things in common with you.”提到了作者想告诉孩子们并不是所有人都一样, 由此可知接下来应该是强调我们中存在的“不同”, 并鼓励孩子接受这些“不同”, 因为, 这些“不同”会给你惊喜。故选D项。
5. 上文“I wanted to tell you to listen when the teacher speaks, when someone new talks about themselves, etc.”提到作者告诉孩子老师讲话时、新认识的人讲关于自己的事的时候都要认真听, 所以本段主要是强调“听”的重要性。F项“Listening is one of those skills that will come in handy later in life(听是今后人生中派得上用处的技能之一)”符合语境。故选F项。
Ⅲ.语法填空
I like boarding school because not only can I learn to be 1.independent (dependent) by arranging my study and campus life on my own, but I will also become mentally mature more 2.quickly (quick) by getting along with my roommates and peers.
One day, my roommates Lisa and Andrea said to me, “You know, Mary, the only reason Sarah starts on the basketball team is 3.that the coach likes her.” 4.On hearing this, Sarah's heart sank.She did not attack them back.Instead, she told them the 5.truth (true) directly and that they had hurt her.Lisa felt 6.ashamed (shame) for spreading rumour and Andrea was speechless.It was Sarah's proper 7.behaviour/behavior (behave) that prevented her from being harmed, 8.which might otherwise turn into a dorm conflict.They both 9.apologized (apologize) to Sarah and they became friends again.From the story, I firmly believe that only with wisdom, tolerance and a good sense, will we effectively avoid conflicts with peers and thus create a peaceful and 10.valuable (value) relationship in school.
文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。通过作者的同学合理地处理和其他同学的冲突,告诉我们要用智慧避免与同龄人的冲突,在学校里创造一种平和而珍贵的关系。
解析:
1.考查形容词。句意:我喜欢寄宿学校,因为我不仅可以通过自己安排学习和校园生活来学会独立,而且通过与室友和同龄人相处,我的心智也会更快地成熟。此空用形容词作表语,根据句意“独立的”。故填independent。
2.考查副词。句意:参见上题。此空副词比较级修饰动词become,前已有more。故填quickly。
3. 考查名词性从句。句意:Mary,你知道,Sarah开始参加篮球队的唯一原因是教练喜欢她。根据the reason (why) is that...,可知此处用that引导表语从句。故填that。
4. 考查介词。句意:Sarah一听这话,心就沉了下去。on+doing/n.表示“一……就”,符合句意。故填On。
5.考查名词。句意:相反,她直接告诉他们真相,说他们伤害了她。此空是told后的宾语,应用true的名词形式truth,the truth表“事实;真相”。故填truth。
6.考查形容词。句意:Lisa为散布谣言感到羞耻,Andrea说不出话来。此空用形容词作系动词felt后表语,ashamed“羞愧的”,符合句意。故填ashamed。
7.考查名词。句意:正是Sarah的得体的行为使她免受伤害,否则可能会变成宿舍冲突。此句用到强调句型,强调句子的主语,空处用名词behaviour/behavior作主语,表示“行为;举止”是不可数名词。故填behaviour/behavior。
8. 考查定语从句。句意:参见上题。分析句子结构以及句意可知,空格引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面一句话,从句中缺主语,应用关系代词which。故填which。
9.考查时态。句意:他们都向Sarah道歉,他们又成了朋友。此空是谓语动词,且描述的是过去的事,应用一般过去时。故填apologized。
10.考查形容词。句意:从这个故事中,我坚信只有用智慧、宽容和良好的判断力,才能有效避免与同龄人的冲突,从而在学校里创造一种平和而珍贵的关系。此空是形容词作定语修饰名词relationship,valuable“珍贵的”符合句意。故填valuable。
