PANSY You say that you like being a detective. Why
KEN Let me tell you about a recent case that I dealt with, Pansy. Mr Jones is a very rich man who lives alone and enjoys collecting things. He purchased a vase for 300,000 dollars. He showed it to only two people — his friends Jill and Jenny. Then he locked it in the safe at his house. That night, someone stole it. Mr Jones reported the theft, and I went to his house to look for clues.
PANSY Did you find any
KEN Yes, I found a black pearl earring near the open safe and, outside the open window of the room, I saw a lot of mud on the wet ground. Inside the room, the carpet was spotlessly clean.

PANSY So what did you do next
KEN I interviewed Jill and Jenny. They both denied stealing the vase. But I noticed that Jill was wearing a black pearl necklace — but no earrings.
PANSY So Jill was the thief
KEN I didn’t know. I needed proof. A good detective never
jumps to conclusions. I decided what to do next. I showed Jill the earring, and she admitted it was hers. She said someone had stolen it from her house a month before. I checked her story. It was true.
PANSY So Jill was no longer a suspect. But what about your other clue — the mud outside and the spotless carpet inside

KEN That told me that probably no thief broke into Mr Jones’s house. So I questioned Mr Jones and, in the end, he admitted stealing his own vase. He had bought insurance for it. The insurance company would pay him 300,000 dollars if the vase was stolen.
PANSY And who stole Jill’s earring
KEN Mr Jones did that as well. He tried to make sure that Jill would go to jail instead of him.
PANSY So now Mr Jones is behind bars.
KEN Yes, and Jill is free. My job is to protect the innocent as well as find the guilty. That’s why I like being a detective.

At about three o’clock this morning, people were woken up by a number of terrible screams. The screams came from the fourth floor of a house, which belongs to Matine and her daughter Limy.
Eight or ten of the neighbours and two policemen ran to the house. There was no answer to their knocking. So they broke the door.
Everything in the house was in order. Nothing was broken. All the furniture was very clean and in the place where they used to be. It seemed that nothing strange had happened. The neighbours hurried from room to room but found nothing until they came to a large room at the back of the house on the fourth floor. The room was locked, and no one could open the door. So they broke the door open, only to see something frightening and surprising in the room.
Chairs and tables were broken and lay in pieces everywhere. A small box was found under the bed. It was open and there were only a few old letters in it. But all the neighbours knew that there should be many jewelleries in it, because Limy liked showing them the jewelleries very much. They found the body of the daughter on the bed. The body was still warm. There were deep cuts on the face, and around the neck there were wounds and marks of fingers.
The policemen looked in all the other rooms, and then went down into the small yard at the back of the house. There they found the dead body of Matine. There were terrible wounds all over the body. Until now, the police say, there are no answers to the terrible mystery.
1．The underlined words “in order” in Paragraph 2 may mean “________”.
A．everything is well B．everything is wrong
C．something has gone D．something is missing
2．Where was Limy found dead
A．On the second floor. B．On the fourth floor. C．In the small yard. D．On the stairs.

A．Only Matine. B．Only Limy. C．The police. D．Matine and her daughter Limy.

5．推理判断题。本文讲述一起至今未破案的死亡案件，所以推测可能在报纸上看到这篇文章，故选B。

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and said it would keep you thin or help you to do well in exams
This happens sometimes to students. What those strangers want to give them is drugs (毒品). A drug can change the way your mind or body works. Students should learn to keep themselves safe by saying “No!”. “Because teenagers don’t know much about drugs, they might want to try them.” Zhang Dongsheng, the leader of a drug control office said.
Liang, 16, was a good student before he tried drugs. One day, some older friends told him it would be fun to take drugs. After taking drugs only one time, he found it very hard to stop. Liang began to spend all his time and money on drugs. In the end, he stopped going to school and started stealing. His parents went quite sad and worried about him.
In China, drugs are becoming a big problem for teens. According to China’s National Police, one million people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72 percent of them were young people. There were 10,000 drug users under 16.
Junior 1 student Li Mengnan was surprised when she visited a rehabilitation(康复) centers to the kids who have had problems in Dongguan, Guangdong last September. “I couldn’t help crying when heard all the sad stories about drug users,” she said. Zhang has some good advice on stay away from drugs, “Never try them, even if you’re curious.”

17．句意：最近，孙海洋和妻子彭四英拥抱失散已久的儿子哭泣的直播吸引了数百万观众。
father父亲；son儿子；daughter女儿；mother母亲。根据下文“After searching for their son…”可知当时他们的儿子被诱拐了。故选B。

days天；weeks周；months月；years年。根据第三段中“In 2007…on Oct. 9 that year, Sun Zhuo was abducted (诱拐)…”可知孙卓从2007年被拐到2021年被找到，有14年的时间。故选D。
19．句意：孙海洋来自湖北，他的儿子孙卓2003年出生在那里。
is是，be的第三人称单数现在式；are是，be的第二人称单复数现在式；was是，am和is的过去式；were是，are的过去式。结合语境和空后“born in 2003”可知空处应用一般过去时，主语是“his son”，所以be用was。故选C。
20．句意：然而，那年10月9日，孙卓在自家门前玩耍时被一名男子诱拐。
However然而；But但是；Although尽管；And和。结合语境和空后“Sun Zhuo was abducted (诱拐)…while playing in front of the family’s home.”可知孙卓在自家门前玩耍被拐是出乎意料的，所以空处用表示转折的词，且空后有逗号，因此这里用However。故选A。
21．句意：然而，那年10月9日，孙卓在自家门前玩耍时被一名男子诱拐。
with和……在一起；by被；in在……内；about关于。根据空前“…Sun Zhuo was abducted”和事实可知孙卓是被人诱拐的，所以这里介词by在被动语态中表示动作的执行者。故选B。

23．句意：但他们从未停止寻找他们的儿子。
finding找到；looking for寻找；to look for为了寻找；to find为了找到。根据第二段开头“After searching for their son for 14 years…”可知夫妻俩这14年间都一直在寻找孙卓，排除选项A和D，且这里用动名词作“stopped”的宾语，构成“stop doing sth停止做某事”。故选B。
24．句意：他们甚至悬赏20万元给找到男孩的任何人。
give给；offered提供，过去式或过去分词；provide提供；paid支付，过去式或过去分词。结合语境可知本句应用一般过去时，排除选项A和C；根据空后“a reward of 200,000 yuan to anyone…”可知为了找到孩子，夫妻俩提供了20万的赏金，所以这里用offered，构成短语“offer sth to sb提供某物给某人”。故选B。
25．句意：孙海洋感谢警方帮助找到他的儿子，并表示希望儿子能和家人在一起。
hearing听到；helping帮助；seeing看见；thinking认为。结合语境和前两句“Shenzhen police said they placed great importance on the case (案件). In October, they finally found Sun Zhuo through DNA tests in Shandong.”可知深圳警方很重视这个案件，最终帮助夫妻俩找到孙卓。故选B。
26．句意：孙海洋感谢警方帮助找到他的儿子，并表示希望儿子能和家人在一起。

【导语】本文介绍了西镇谋杀案的情况，说明了谋杀那个年轻人的人是他的老板，在街上奔跑的那个人与这个案子毫无关系。
27．句意：原来杀害那个年轻人的人是他的老板！根据“…out that the person who killed the young man was his boss!”可知，这是说的最后结果，所以此处是短语turn out“结果是，原来是”，此句可以是一般现在时，也可以是一般过去时，主语是it，所以动词用第三人称单数形式或过去式。故填(t)urned/ (t)urns。
28．句意：老板做了违法的事。根据“The victim wanted to report the crime to the…so his boss murdered him.”可知，受害者想要报案，应该是老板做了违法的事，此处是against the law“违法的”，固定搭配。故填(a)gainst。

30．句意：在街上奔跑的那个人与这个案子毫无关系。根据“He worked in a meat market. The blood on his shirt was from killing hens and ducks.”可知，那个人与这个案子毫无关系，此处是have nothing to do with“与……无关”。故填(n)othing。
31．句意：他急着赶公共汽车！根据“He was in a…to catch a bus!”可知，此处是说他急着赶公共汽车，in a hurry“匆忙”，固定短语。故填(h)urry。
