二、阅读理解
A
Are you the only child in your family Have you heard of"the second-child policy（政策）"
Everyone knows the one-child policy. It is a population control method（控制方法）.The Chinese government aimed（打算）to control the increasing population at that time. Many Chinese couples understood that and followed this policy for nearly 40 years. Everyone should be responsible for our country.
However, as time goes by, some problems appear in our society. At present, these problems are mainly about:
●The number of workers changed from about 960 million in 2010 to 940 million in 2012. The number changed to 930 million in 2014 and fell by 29 million by 2020.
●China is now getting into an aging society. There will be more old people in the following years. But the society will be short of doctors and nurses to take care of them.
●The population of China will become smaller and smaller if the one-child policy continues（持续）.It's the basic reason that leads to the two problems above.
That's why the Chinese government began the second-child policy on January 1st, 2016. It allows each family to have a second child. The government expects it can help solve those social problems gradually（逐渐地）.
This policy will help offer enough workers in the future and prevent our country from entering the aging society. It is reported that there will be around 2.5 million newly-born babies each year.
11.From the passage, we know that ______.
A. our government is facing 3 main problems
B. the one-child policy started on January 1st, 2016
C. our population increased a lot from 2010 to 2014
D. the second-child policy won't work at all
12.The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 means ______.
A. the family
B. the increasing population
C. the one-child policy
D. the second-child policy
13.The number of workers was ______ in 2014.
A. 960 million B. 940 million C. 930 million D. 29 million
14.You may read this passage in the ______ part in a magazine.
A. Travelling and Transportation B. Society and History
C. Food and Health D. Science and Art
15.The writer thinks it is ______ to announce（宣布）the second-child policy.
A. impossible B. useless C. meaningless D. necessary
B
The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means（工具）.Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it. Man has been polluting the earth. The more people there are, the more pollution there is. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.
Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world,but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by sulfur dioxide （SO2） is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must pay attention to the rise in pollution at the same time.
16.According to the passage,_____, our world isbecoming much smaller.
A. because of the rise in pollution
B. thanks to the science development
C. because the earth is being polluted day and night
D. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year
17.Hundreds of years ago, life was ____ it is today.
A. as easy as B. much easier than
C.as hard as D. much harder than
18.In Paragraph 1, the underlined word " it" means ____.
A. rubbish B. noise pollution C. air pollution D. water pollution
19.Which of the following is NOT true
A. Many countries are making rules to fight pollution.
B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world population does.
C. The problem of the pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.
D. If people could go to work by bus or by bike instead of by car or by motorbike, it would be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2.
三、补全对话
A.Do you know what the worlds population is today B.I’m reading a book about the world's population these days. C.I think we must do something to control the population. D.It’s too bad. E.It was no more than 2 billion.

答案以及解析
一、单项选择
1.答案：A
解析：句意：最好不要逃避我们的问题。我们应当总是努力解决它们。solve意为“解决”，符合题意。
2.答案：D
解析： hour 是以元音音素开头的单词，表泛指时，其前用不定冠词 an；go to work“去上班”，为固定搭配。
3.答案：A
解析：英语中,表达人口多少常用large/small,不用many/few,故选A。
4.答案：B
解析： take away"带走";close down"关闭";break up"分手";set off“出发”。根据逗号前面的内容可知B项符合语境。
5.答案：A
解析：in public"在公开场合"；in future“今后"；in common"共有"；in need"处境困难”。由空前的"gets nervous"可知A项符合题意。
6.答案：A
解析：句意：如今，许多人更喜欢华为手机，并且他们中大约五分之四是成年人。a number of“许多”；the number of...“……的数量”，根据第一空后的“like”可知，第一空应用a number of。分数作主语时，谓语动词与其所修饰或代指的名词在人称和数上保持一致，故第二空应用are。
7.答案：A
解析：空前无具体数词修饰，空处表示概数，应用固定搭配thousands of“成千上万的”。
8.答案：C
解析：考查数词的用法。句意：现在，数百万的农民离开他们的家乡去城里寻找工作。 million、 thousand或 hundred前有具体数字时不用复数，直接修饰名词复数形式，因此B、D两项是错误形式；在表达不确切的数目时，要在 million、 thousand或 hundred后加-s，并和of连用，由此可知A项也是错误形式。故选C。
9.答案：C
解析：考查动词时态。句意: 昨天的这个时候, 九年级的学生们正在进行数学考试。时间状语at this time yesterday"昨天这个时候"提示用过去进行时。故选C。
10.答案：B
解析：考查动词时态。句意：—哦！你的手指怎么了？—我在做飞机模型的时候弄伤它了。while意为"当……的时候"，引导时间状语从句，主句为一般过去时，由句意可知从句用过去进行时。故选B。
二、阅读理解
A
11.答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第四、五、六段内容可推断，A项正确。
12.答案：C

解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段中的"The number changed to 930 million in 2014"可知,2014年的工人数目是"930million"。
14.答案：B
解析：推理判断题。通读文章可知，本文介绍了人口问题和人口政策，故选B。
15.答案：D
解析： 作者态度题。根据文章最后一段中的"This policy will help offer enough workers in the future and prevent our country from entering the aging society"可推知，作者认为实施"二孩政策"是很有必要的，故选D。
B
16.答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段第一句可推知选B。

解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago"可知，几百年前的生活比现在的生活困难得多。
18.答案：B
解析：代词指代题。根据上文内容可知，此处的it是污染的一种，根据画线词前的hear并结合选项可知，it指代的是noise pollution。
19.答案：C
解析：细节理解题。C项描述与文章第二段内容不符，故选C。
三、补全对话
答案：1-5 BEACD
解析： 1.B根据上文问句"What are you up to "可知应选B项,表示'这些天,我正在读一本关于世界人口的书。”2.E根据空前的"It says that 1,000 years ago, the world’s population was very small."可知此处仍在描述一千年前的世界人口情况。 结合所给选项,故选E项。3.A 根据下文中的"Sony ,I don’t know."和"It’s more than 7 Million."可知此处为一般疑问句,且表示“你知道现在世界人口是多少吗 ”故选A项。4.C 根据下文中的"Yes. If we don’t control the population ,there will not be.."可知此处谈论的是控制人口增长的问题,故选C项。5.D根据上文的假设“如果我们不控制人口的话,600年后地球上将不会有足够的空间了。”可知此处应表达对其的看法,故选 D项。

五、书面表达
I live in a city in the south of China. There are more and more people coming to find jobs these years. This causes a lot of problems in my city.
Because of the increasing population, in running hours there are too many cars,bikes and so on. Every time I go to school by bus, it is so crowded. And traffic accidents often happen. Many people are hurt or die in the traffic accidents.
I think people should be allowed to go to work or school at different times. Everyone must follow the traffic rules carefully, or they should be punished.
