The boy sat on his chair, with his hands above the keyboard. He thought about what to write.
He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away. But he still had not even
started on his piece. He looked at the brochure again.“WRITING COMPETITION！” the title read.
His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition, and now he was taking it on as his
personal task for the holidays.
As the boy reflected on his previous writing efforts, he realized how hopeless his task of winning
was. Every story he ever wrote was based on other stories. He had little imagination, and
unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.
Suddenly, he had a brainwave. This time, he came up with an original and imaginative story.
The words shot towards him like a storm of leaves. Words were coming easily, flowing through him, faster than he could type. He typed faster than he ever had before. He continued to type, amazed how easy writing this story was. The boy could not stop writing. He looked at the word count and saw
the number “248” staring right back at him. He was not even halfway yet.
Then he heard his mother’s call of saying time for bed. He continued writing the piece, ignoring
her. He had to make up for the time he had lost in thinking about a topic to write.
Finally, he finished. The word count now read “498” .
“Perfect ，” he thought, “just under the word limit.” He knew this was the story that would win.
He went to the website and searched for the competition. He found the page but there was no
“Enter” button.
Confused, he then re-read the page again. It read COMPETITION CLOSED .
24. What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition
A. A new computer.
B. The prize money.
C. His own interest.
D. His mom’s encouragement.
25. How did the boy finish his earlier writing

C. His friends assisted him.
D. He used his imagination.
26. Why did the boy delay his writing
A. Because he was terribly lazy.
B. Because he didn’t know what to write.
C. Because he wasn’t confident.

A. 100. B. 250.

Cycling is considered one of the most efficient ways to travel due to its small carbon footprint.
Many people are happy to ride a bike in their everyday life. However, better infrastructure (基本设施) and a cultural shift are needed to ensure that more people will ride a bike. Bike kitchens are part of a
worldwide movement that can help with such a challenge.
In bike kitchens, tools, used parts, and repair assistance are provided to their members. They
donate bikes and have become spaces for social exchange. They also make efforts to improve basic
infrastructure, which plays a key role in ensuring the safety and comfort of cyclists in areas such as the development of bike lanes and bike parking. But that alone is not enough. Building a cycling culture
that is socially accepted to most, means having significant amounts of people developing skills of
riding bikes.
Cycling has various benefits , like promoting physical and mental health. More importantly, the infrastructure needed for bikes doesn’t require a huge budget. Besides, bicycles are the most practical
and sustainable means of travel for short and medium distance, and also for recreation and sport.
Therefore, a cycling culture appears urgent and significant. For individuals in many developed
countries, transport can be the largest part of their carbon footprint. Transport accounts for about
one-fifth of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. For short or medium distances, bikes are one of the lowest-carbon ways to travel. Even more shockingly, using a bike instead of a car for short trips would
reduce a person’s travel emissions by 75 percent.
Bike kitchens in particular, extend the lifespan of bikes and their parts. They help build a
community economy that prevents waste generation, since most parts are secondhand, fixed, or reused. Either through the supply of tools, parts, workshops, fixing sessions, or bikes for free, bike kitchens
encourage a more sustainable way of traveling that makes cities friendlier, while strengthening
community values.
28. Which of the following can be done in bike kitchens
A. Exchanging bikes. B. Teaching others to ride bikes.
C. Purchasing the new parts. D. Developing riding skills.
29. What does the author want to stress in the text
A. Cycling is a sustainable way to travel.
B. Transport is still a challenging problem.
C. Everyone should have an eco-friendly travel.
D. Bikes are also suitable for a long distance travel.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards bike kitchens according to the text
A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Grateful.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Bike kitchens reduce people’s travel influences.
B. Bike kitchens are helping boost cycling culture.
C. Bike kitchens are gaining popularity in the world.
D. Bike kitchens make cycling accessible to everyone.

Cheerleading is the fastest growing women’s sport, yet many Americans think it can’t satisfy the
standards and qualifications of a sport. In addition, they fail to distinguish between sideline
cheerleaders and competitive ones. Sideline cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead
them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, it is true of competitive
cheerleading.
Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. Cheerleaders must learn to fall and
perform many complex actions, like lifts and tosses. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air,
held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates. The whole routine has to be completed in less than three minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are
required to stay within a certain area. Just like gymnasts, they are awarded points for difficulty,
technique, creativity and sharpness. Cheerleading is a team sport, so without cooperation, first place is
out of reach.
Cheerleading is the major cause of serious sports injuries to women due to the fact that
cheerleaders always perform without any equipment to protect them. While many athletes in other
sports are well protected, smiling cheerleaders are tossed into the air and fall down into the arms of
trusted teammates. The fliers must remain tight all the time so that their bases can catch them safely. Because cheerleading is not recognized as a sport by many schools, proper equipment isn’tprovided to ensure safety. Therefore, more recognition of competitive cheerleading as a sport would decrease the
number of injuries.
Competitive cheerleading is a physical activity governed by rules under which a winner can be
declared and its primary purpose is to compare the skills of participants. Hopefully, cheerleading will
become as well-known a sport as football and basketball, and even appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports.
32. What do many Americans think of cheerleading
A. It is aimed at cheering the audience. B. It focuses on strength and teamwork.
C. It does no good to women's health. D. It fails to meet the criteria of a sport.
33. What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 2
A. Competitive cheerleading is a team sport.
B. Cheerleaders must train hard to win first place.
C. There are no limits to competitive cheerleading.
D. Strength is essential to competitive cheerleading.
34. Why is it easy for cheerleaders to get seriously injured
A. They are not skillful in performance. B. They don’t wear protective equipment.
C. They are exposed to some dangers. D. They always perform various techniques.
35. Which of the following is the author’s opinion of cheerleading
A. It consumes a lot of energy and strength. B. It will become more famous than football.
C. It is likely to become well known in future. D. It should be equipped with various purposes.

Like all mammals, whales need to sleep in order to survive. But they are also air breathers,
meaning that they cannot sleep in the water all the time. There are around 90 different types of whale, which can hold their breath for about an hour, depending on the species. However, they usually travel
up to the surface to breathe every 15 minutes. 36
Some scientists have found that whales cannot become fully unconscious or they would drown. To deal with living in the water full-time while having to breathe air, these air-breathers ha3e evolved into
voluntary ones, as a way to prevent accidentally breathing in water at inopportune moments.
17 Therefore, they have to be awake and alert at all times to prevent themselves from
drowning.
Whales have some of the largest brains on the planet. 38 They can actively decide which part of their brains to use at a given time. This particular way of sleeping can be seen most clearly in captive (圈养的) whales. When whales are sleeping, they can be seen keeping one eye closed while the
other remains open.
39 Some species, like sperm whales, enter a deeper sleep where they hang in groups, vertically, not too far below the surface for just over an hour. Other species, such as the humpback
whales, have been observed resting motionless at the surface of the water for only 30 minutes.
40 And, killer whales, which are very socially complex, never swim too far from the other
members of their pod, sleeping in close groups.
A. So how exactly do they get any sleep
B. They continue to swim slowly and regularly.
C. They won’t lose their body temperature by staying still.
D. It’s an interesting dilemma for wholly ocean air breathers.
E. This sleeping technique varies slightly among species, however.
F. Whales consciously control their blowholes with powerful muscles.
G. Sperm whales in particular have the biggest brain of any living mammal.

“Ugh, chicken rolls again I hate chicken rolls!” Matt yelled. “I’m not eating this.” Matt’s mom and dad looked at each other. Matt’s outbursts had been happening at least once a week all summer
long.
“You know what, Matt We re going to let you take over dinnertime from now on. You can pick
the meals and cook them, as long as they’re healthy,” Mom said.
“Good, we’re going to eat good food every night!” Matt answered.
The next day, Dad sat down with Matt to make the meal plan so he could go grocery shopping. Matt had already been thinking about his favorite dinners. “We’re going to have beef tonight, and
spaghetti tomorrow, and macaroni (通心粉) and cheese the next day,” Matt started.
“Woah,hold on now,” Dad said. “What else are we going to have with the beef We need to have
at least one vegetable with each meal, and usually we have another side to go with it.”
“Oh, yeah. Um, we can have corn with the beef,” Matt said.
“Sophia does not like corn,” said Dad.
“Well, it’s my choice, so I’m going to make corn,” Matt replied.
“OK, but she might complain at dinner tonight. Are you ready for that ” Dad asked.
“Yeah, whatever,” Matt answered.
Matt and his dad spent the next hour figuring out the whole week’s meals and side dishes. It was a
lot more work than Matt expected, and almost every time he picked something out, his dad would tell
him that someone in the family wouldn’t like it. It was very frustrating. “This is impossible!”
Matt said.
“Yes, it is hard. Your mother and I try very hard to make everyone happy, but everyone has
different tastes, and sometimes, we just can’t please everyone.”
“Fine, we’ll have to just go with this plan this week. Next week I’ll try to make everyone happy,”

Cycling has various benefits , like promoting physical and mental health. More importantly, the infrastructure needed for bikes doesn’t require a huge budget. Besides, bicycles are the most practical
and sustainable means of travel for short and medium distance, and also for recreation and sport.
Therefore, a cycling culture appears urgent and significant. For individuals in many developed
countries, transport can be the largest part of their carbon footprint. Transport accounts for about
one-fifth of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. For short or medium distances, bikes are one of the lowest-carbon ways to travel. Even more shockingly, using a bike instead of a car for short trips would
reduce a person’s travel emissions by 75 percent.
Bike kitchens in particular, extend the lifespan of bikes and their parts. They help build a
community economy that prevents waste generation, since most parts are secondhand, fixed, or
reused. Either through the supply of tools, parts, workshops, fixing sessions, or bikes for free, bike
kitchens encourage a more sustainable way of traveling that makes cities friendlier, while
strengthening community values.
28. Which of the following can be done in bike kitchens
A. Exchanging bikes. B. Teaching others to ride bikes.
C. Purchasing the new parts. D. Developing riding skills.
29. What does the author want to stress in the text
A. Cycling is a sustainable way to travel.
B. Transport is still a challenging problem.

Cheerleading is the fastest growing women’s sport, yet many Americans think it can’t satisfy the
standards and qualifications of a sport. In addition, they fail to distinguish between sideline
cheerleaders and competitive ones. Sideline cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead
them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, it is true of competitive
cheerleading.
Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. Cheerleaders must learn to fall and
perform many complex actions, like lifts and tosses. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air,
held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates. The whole routine has to be completed in less than three minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are
required to stay within a certain area. Just like gymnasts, they are awarded points for difficulty,
technique, creativity and sharpness. Cheerleading is a team sport, so without cooperation, first place is
out of reach.
Cheerleading is the major cause of serious sports injuries to women due to the fact that
cheerleaders always perform without any equipment to protect them. While many athletes in other
sports are well protected, smiling cheerleaders are tossed into the air and fall down into the arms of trusted teammates. The fliers must remain tight all the time so that their bases can catch them safely. Because cheerleading is not recognized as a sport by many schools, proper equipment isn’tprovided to ensure safety. Therefore, more recognition of competitive cheerleading as a sport would decrease the
number of injuries.
Competitive cheerleading is a physical activity governed by rules under which a winner can be
declared and its primary purpose is to compare the skills of participants. Hopefully, cheerleading will
become as well-known a sport as football and basketball, and even appear in the Olympics since
cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports.
32. What do many Americans think of cheerleading
A. It is aimed at cheering the audience. B. It focuses on strength and teamwork. C. It does no good to women's health. D. It fails to meet the criteria of a sport.
33. What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 2
A. Competitive cheerleading is a team sport.
B. Cheerleaders must train hard to win first place.
C. There are no limits to competitive cheerleading.
D. Strength is essential to competitive cheerleading.
34. Why is it easy for cheerleaders to get seriously injured
A. They are not skillful in performance. B. They don’t wear protective equipment.
C. They are exposed to some dangers. D. They always perform various techniques.
35. Which of the following is the author’s opinion of cheerleading
A. It consumes a lot of energy and strength. B. It will become more famous than football.
C. It is likely to become well known in future. D. It should be equipped with various purposes.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C

重要。故本段主要说明了，竞技型拉拉队是一项团队运动。故选 A 项。
【34 题详解】

项。
【35 题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Hopefully, cheerleading will become as well-known a sport as football and basketball, and even appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports.”（希望拉拉队能够像足球和篮球一样成为一项 著名的运动， 甚至能够出现在奥运会上， 因为拉拉队员们和那些被广泛接受的运动员们一样身 体健康） 可知， 作者认为拉拉队非常有可能成为和足球、篮球等球类运动齐名的运动。故选 C
项。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
Like all mammals, whales need to sleep in order to survive. But they are also air breathers,
meaning that they cannot sleep in the water all the time. There are around 90 different types of whale, which can hold their breath for about an hour, depending on the species. However, they usually travel
up to the surface to breathe every 15 minutes. 36
Some scientists have found that whales cannot become fully unconscious or they would drown. To deal with living in the water full-time while having to breathe air, these air-breathers ha3e evolved into
voluntary ones, as a way to prevent accidentally breathing in water at inopportune moments.
17 Therefore, they have to be awake and alert at all times to prevent themselves from
drowning.
Whales have some of the largest brains on the planet. 38 They can actively decide which
part of their brains to use at a given time. This particular way of sleeping can be seen most clearly in captive (圈养的) whales. When whales are sleeping, they can be seen keeping one eye closed while
the other remains open.
39 Some species, like sperm whales, enter a deeper sleep where they hang in groups, vertically, not too far below the surface for just over an hour. Other species, such as the humpback
whales, have been observed resting motionless at the surface of the water for only 30 minutes.
40 And, killer whales, which are very socially complex, never swim too far from the other
members of their pod, sleeping in close groups.
A. So how exactly do they get any sleep
B. They continue to swim slowly and regularly.
C. They won’t lose their body temperature by staying still.
D. It’s an interesting dilemma for wholly ocean air breathers.
E. This sleeping technique varies slightly among species, however.
F. Whales consciously control their blowholes with powerful muscles.
G. Sperm whales in particular have the biggest brain of any living mammal.

“You know what, Matt We re going to let you take over dinnertime from now on. You can pick
the meals and cook them, as long as they’re healthy,” Mom said.
“Good, we’re going to eat good food every night!” Matt answered.
The next day, Dad sat down with Matt to make the meal plan so he could go grocery shopping.
Matt had already been thinking about his favorite dinners. “We’re going to have beef tonight, and
spaghetti tomorrow, and macaroni (通心粉) and cheese the next day,” Matt started.
“Woah,hold on now,” Dad said. “What else are we going to have with the beef We need to have
at least one vegetable with each meal, and usually we have another side to go with it.”
“Oh, yeah. Um, we can have corn with the beef,” Matt said.
“Sophia does not like corn,” said Dad.
“Well, it’s my choice, so I’m going to make corn,” Matt replied.
“OK, but she might complain at dinner tonight. Are you ready for that ” Dad asked.
“Yeah, whatever,” Matt answered.
Matt and his dad spent the next hour figuring out the whole week’s meals and side dishes. It was a lot more work than Matt expected, and almost every time he picked something out, his dad would tell
him that someone in the family wouldn’t like it. It was very frustrating. “This is impossible!” Matt
said.
“Yes, it is hard. Your mother and I try very hard to make everyone happy, but everyone has
different tastes, and sometimes, we just can’t please everyone.”
“Fine, we’ll have to just go with this plan this week. Next week I’ll try to make everyone happy,”
replied Matt.

【答案】参考范文
When finishing grocery shopping, it was time for Matt to make his first meal. Looking at the
grocery he deadly wanted to eat, Matt felt so excited and confident about the dinner to be made by him at first. But the reality gave him a lesson soon. When he tried to fry the beef, he didn’t know how to control the fire, so that the beef was burning. His parents wanted to lend him a hand but he refused it and finally he made it in the fourth time with the help of the cooking video! For the corn, he just boiled
it and covered some cream on it.
Two hours had passed by before the dishes were ready on the table. Deadly exhausted, Matt felt so proud of himself and anticipated the praises from his families. “Ew, this beef tastes very odd,” Sophia said. Matt took a bite. It did taste odd. But he’d worked so hard! He felt like he might cry. “It’s OK, Matt, cooking is hard. It takes a long time to figure it out. Sophia, just be nice. Matt worked really hard
on this dinner. We should appreciate it.” Mom said. “I’m sorry…” he apologized. Since then, it
downed on Matt that he should treat every meal from his parents with respect and appreciation.
