Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.

Last summer holiday, Aunt Emily took us to a safari park (野生动物园), not far from Liverpool.
I was very happy to go as I had never been to a safari park before. It’s a very interesting park, full of wild animals running freely.
When we got there, we bought our tickets and drove into the park. We were very excited at the thought of going to see the lions. But to get to the lions’ place we had to go through the monkeys’ land first. And that was an unforgettable experience because they climbed all over the car, ate apples and bananas, and threw all kinds of things at us. They seemed very unfriendly.
Anyway, we went on our way to the lions’ place where we had to lock ourselves in the car as we knew lions could be dangerous. A lion came up very close to us. Then it was on the bonnet (车盖). It looked calm but we felt terrified. Aunt Emily, who isn’t very brave, started to call for help. The kids started crying. Only my brother, George, stayed cool. I sounded the horn (喇叭) but nobody heard us.
In the end a guard arrived in his car, and the lion just got off our car and started smelling the guard’s hand as if nothing was the matter.

Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.
Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more.
There’s a lot of stress (压力) in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.
Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me!
Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think
12. Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now

D. not to eat out any more
15. What can we learn about the author

B. The author has taken the doctor’s advice.
C. The author has got another new job.
D. The author feels much better now.

It was a beautiful day for sightseeing. We were a group of students just out for some fun. The weather was perfect for a picnic, so when lunch time came, we set our sights on a small park. Since we all had different things to buy, we decided to get what each of us wanted, and meet back on the grass in a few minutes.
When my friend Joy headed for a hot dog shop, I decided to go with her. We watched the seller put together the perfect hot dog, just the way we wanted it. But when we took out our money to pay the bill, the seller surprised us.
“You are the first customers to visit, and the first order is given to you for free,” he said.
After we thanked him, we joined our friends in the park, and dug into our food. But as we talked and ate, I was distracted (分心) by a man sitting alone nearby, looking at us. I could tell that he hadn’t showered for days. Another homeless person, I thought, like all the others you see in cities. I didn’t pay much more attention than that.
After we finished eating, we packed our lunch bags and prepared to throw them away.

【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一只聪明的狗用一张白纸从屠夫那儿骗肉吃的故事。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Mrs. Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house. Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it：“Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently：“Take this to the butcher(屠夫)and he’s going to give you your lunch today.”(史密斯太太的狗饿了，但家里没有肉。考虑到没有更好的办法。史密斯太太拿了一张纸，在上面写了下面的话：“给我的狗半磅肉。”然后她把这张纸递给她的狗，温柔地说：“把这张纸拿给屠夫，他会给你今天的午餐。”)”可推断，史密斯太太对待狗非常好。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers(顾客)(第二天，狗正好在中午又来了。和往常一样，它嘴里叼着一张纸。这一次，屠夫连纸都没看一眼，把肉给了狗，因为他把狗当成了自己的顾客之一。)”以及第五段“But, the dog came again at four o’clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher’s more surprise, it came for the third time at six o’clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper.(但是，狗在四点钟又来了。同样的事情又发生了。更令肉贩吃惊的是，它在六点钟第三次来了，还带来了第三张纸。)”以及文章最后一段“Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!(他看了看那张纸，发现上面一个字也没有！)”可推断，这只小狗已经知道用空白的纸张去换肉，所以小狗知道史密斯太太给它纸会给它带来好处。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady’s handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once. (狗嘴里叼着那张纸，跑向肉店。它把纸给了屠夫。屠夫仔细地看了看，认出这确实是那位女士的笔迹，很快就照她说的做了。狗很高兴，立刻把肉吃光了。)”可知，屠夫在确认纸上的字是史密斯太太所写之后才把肉给了狗。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!(他看了看那张纸，发现上面一个字也没有！)”可知，屠夫最后发现纸上一个字都没有，而上文则告诉我们屠夫那天已经给了小狗两次肉了。由此推断，屠夫最后发现自己被这只聪明的狗给耍了。故选D。
D
Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing.
Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more.
There’s a lot of stress (压力) in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all.
Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me!
Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think
12. Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now
A. His job. B. His pay.
C. His means of transport. D. His health.
13. According to the passage, when the author got the better job, which of the following is NOT true
A. He got higher pay.
B. His working hours weren’t long.
C. He found it very stressful.
D. He had little free time at weekends.
14. After the author had a heart attack, the doctor advised him .
A. not to work any longer
B. to take a long vacation abroad
C. to stop smoking and take exercise
D. not to eat out any more
15. What can we learn about the author
A. The author is not sure what he should do now.
B. The author has taken the doctor’s advice.
C. The author has got another new job.
D. The author feels much better now.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是记叙文。文章通过讲述作者前后不同的工作给作者的健康带来了不同的影响的情况，告诉我们要更多注意自己的健康状态，保持健康的身体。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的).可知，10年前作者很健康；根据倒数第二段中的Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious.可知，两个月前作者得了心脏病，一开始他简直不敢相信，幸好不是很严重。由此可知，和10年相比，作者现在的健康出了很大的问题。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer.可知，然后，大约八年前，作者找到了一份更好的工作，工资更高了，但工作时间更长了。由此可知，“作者的工作时间不长”与原文不符。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise.可知，医生建议作者戒烟、少吃、少工作和多锻炼。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think (我也得想想他们。我就是不知道该怎么做。你觉得怎么样 )可知，作者很迷茫，不知道该怎么办。故选A。

37. building
38. to continue
39. of 40. which##that
41. the 42. have attracted
43. strangers
44. surprised
45. better
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Jane Thomas花费数年打造莫特利动物园，她致力于保护野生动物并不求回报，后来她收到了陌生人捐的9000美元，她用这笔钱在街上宣传动物救援，收获了更多人的支持。
【36题详解】
考查连词。句意：创办一个野生动物保护中心是一项必要而重要的工作，但它很难为其创始人带来资金，Jane Thomas也是如此。空前的necessary和空后的important之间是并列关系，一起作job的定语，应用and连接。故填and。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她花了几年时间建造莫特利动物园，并致力于华盛顿州雷德蒙德市的野生动物保护工作，但她赚的所有钱都直接花回了动物园。spend time (in) doing sth.意为“花时间做某事”，动名词作宾语。故填building。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：她决心继续做她的工作，即使没有什么钱来回报她。be determined to do sth.意为“下定决心做某事”，所以用动词不定式。故填to continue。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意：Thomas说：“听起来很疯狂，由于我的努力，我收到了一笔秘密捐款：9000美元。”because of意为“因为，由于”，为介词短语，其后跟名词。故填of。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：她决定用今年一位陌生人捐赠的钱来拯救更多的动物。分析句子可知，空处引导一个定语从句，先行词为money，指物，且从句中缺少主语，所以用关系代词that或which引导该从句。故填which/that。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：她在街上宣传动物救援，得到了公众的许多支持。the public意为“民众”，为固定搭配。故填the。
【42题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：自从我在街上宣传动物救援以来，我吸引了很多人。空处为主句的谓语，结合时间状语从句“Ever since I advertised the animal rescue in the street”可知，主句应用现在完成时。主语I为第一人称，谓语动词用复数。故填have attracted。
【43题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：现在当我走在街上时，很多陌生人向我挥手，甚至向我大喊“我从你那里收养了我的狗！”stranger(陌生人)为可数名词，其前有many修饰，所以应用复数。故填strangers。
44题详解】
考查形容词。句意：人们对我比以往任何时候都好，我感到惊讶。空处作feel的表语，应用形容词。主语为指人的I，所以这里应用-ed形式的形容词。surprised意为“惊讶的”。故填surprised。
【45题详解】
考查比较级。句意参考上题。根据空后的than可知，这里表示比较，是对人们现在的对待方式和以前的对待方式进行比较，应用well的比较级better。故填better。

It was a beautiful day for sightseeing. We were a group of students just out for some fun. The weather was perfect for a picnic, so when lunch time came, we set our sights on a small park. Since we all had different things to buy, we decided to get what each of us wanted, and meet back on the grass in a few minutes.
When my friend Joy headed for a hot dog shop, I decided to go with her. We watched the seller put together the perfect hot dog, just the way we wanted it. But when we took out our money to pay the bill, the seller surprised us.
“You are the first customers to visit, and the first order is given to you for free,” he said.
After we thanked him, we joined our friends in the park, and dug into our food. But as we talked and ate, I was distracted (分心) by a man sitting alone nearby, looking at us. I could tell that he hadn’t showered for days. Another homeless person, I thought, like all the others you see in cities. I didn’t pay much more attention than that.
After we finished eating, we packed our lunch bags and prepared to throw them away.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, a strong voice came from that homeless person.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Joy asked me to wait for her for a minute and ran to the hot dog shop.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Suddenly, a strong voice came from that homeless person. He said, “Excuse me, would you mind sparing a meal for a hungry soul ” His words struck a chord in my heart, reminding me of the privilege and abundance that I often take for granted. Feeling a mix of guilt and compassion, I turned to face him. As we talked, I discovered that he was once an accomplished musician, full of dreams and aspirations. It was disheartening to hear how circumstances had pushed him to this point of desperation.
Joy asked me to wait for her for a minute and ran to the hot dog shop. She returned with an extra hot dog and a bottle of water in her hands. She handed them to the homeless man with a warm smile. His eyes sparkled with appreciation as he accepted the food. As I watched the exchange, a wave of realization washed over me. This encounter was more than just a random act of kindness; it was a reminder of the power we hold to make a difference in someone's life. I felt a renewed sense of empathy and the urge to do more.

①由第一段首句内容“突然，那个流浪汉传来一个强烈的声音。”可知第一段可描写流浪汉想要一些吃的，作者通过对话了解了流浪汉的一些情况。
②由第二段首句内容“Joy让我等她一分钟，然后跑到热狗店。”可知流浪汉得到了食物。
2.续写线索：要求食物——交流——等一分钟——热狗和水——赞赏——感悟
