二、阅读理解（共4小题；每小题5分，满分20分）
With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his mother-in-law: she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol—one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine, but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
"We floated the idea to my mum of sharing a house," says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in: "We spoke more with Nick because I think it's a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law."
And what does Nick think "From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it Yes, I think I would."
It's hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001 to 419,000 in 2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in with their husband's family when they get married.
11.Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol
A.Nick. B. Rita. C.Kathryn. D. The daughters.
12.What is Nick's attitude towards sharing the house with his mother-in-law
A. Positive. B. Carefree. C. Tolerant. D.Unwilling.
13.What is the author's about statement multigenerational family based on
A.Family traditions. B. Financial reports.
C.Published statistics. D. Public opinions.
14.What is the text mainly about
A. Lifestyles in different countries. B. Conflicts between generations.
C. A housing problem in Britain. D. A rising trend of living in the UK.
三、七选五（共5小题；每小题4分，满分20分）

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：it
解析：考查it的用法。当make的宾语为动词不定式时，通常用it作形式宾语代替真正的宾语，并把动词不定式放在后面，构成"make + it +adj./n.+ to do sth."结构。
2.答案：On/Upon
解析：考查介词。on/upon(doing) sth.表示"一……就……",常在句中作时间状语。
3.答案：fixed
解析：考查独立主格结构。句意: 他在课上专心听讲, 眼睛盯着黑板。分析句子结构可知, his eyes _____(fix) on the blackboard为独立主格结构, fix和his eyes是逻辑上的动宾关系, 故空处应用过去分词。"fix one's eyes on..." 为固定用法, 表示"把双眼集中在……上"。
4.答案：would not change
解析：此处表示就过去某一时间而言,以后将要发生的事情,且表示否定意义,故填would not change。
5.答案：promotion
解析：考查词形转换。根据空前的his可知,空处应用名词,且此处表示"晋升",故填promotion。
6.答案：Spreading
解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处作主语,表示抽象的动作,应用动词-ing形式。故填Spreading。
7.答案：to go
解析：考查固定用法。make up one's mind to do sth是固定用法,表示"下定决心做某事",故此处应填to go。
8.答案：were to shape
解析： was/were to do可以表示"后来结果,注定"的含义。根据句意可知,此处应填were to shape。
9.答案：to have
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意:这一活动使学生能够更好地了解中西方的文化差异。enable sb. to do sth.是固定用法,意为“使某人能够/有机会做某事”,故填to have。
10.答案：to reduce
解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处作后置定语修饰空前的way,而 way后一般跟动词不定式作后置定语,故填to reduce。
二、阅读理解
11.答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor”可知,Rita在一楼有自己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅。由此可知,Rita在布里斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中使用一楼。故选B。
12.答案：A
解析：观点态度题。根据第五段“And what does Nick think ‘From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it Yes, I think I would’.”可知,Nick对和岳母合住房子的态度是积极的。故选A。
13.答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001 to 419,000 in 2013.”以及第七段中的“It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.”可知,作者关于多世同堂家庭的论述基于发布的统计数据。故选C。
14.答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段“With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation, more families are choosing to live together.”可知,由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着孤独的风险,越来越多的家庭选择住在一起。所以短文主要讲的是关于英国生活方式的一种上升趋势。故选D。
三、七选五
答案：CBEGA
解析：①下文“Tomb sweeping is aimed at commemorating family ancestors, while going on a spring outing allows everyone the chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery and enjoy the season.（扫墓是为了纪念家族祖先，而春游让每个人都有机会欣赏美丽的风景,享受这个季节）”解释了“Tomb sweeping”和“going on a spring outing”两项清明节习俗的意义，是对C项“The two main activities over the festival include tomb sweeping and going on a spring outing.（清明节的两项主要活动是扫墓和春游）”内容的阐述，上下文句意连贯。故选C。
②根据空前小标题“Tomb sweeping.(扫墓)”可知，本段主要是介绍清明的扫墓习俗。B项“The tradition of tomb sweeping originates from the Qin Dynasty.（扫墓的传统起源于秦朝）”承接上文，介绍扫墓的起源，上下文句意连贯。故选B。
③根据空前小标题“Spring outing.(春游)”可知，本段主要介绍清明的春游习俗。上文“People can have a great time outdoors with their friends and family.（人们可以和他们的朋友和家人在户外度过美好的时光）”提出“在户外度过美好的时光”，E项“Playing football and flying kites are popular activities.（踢足球和放风筝是很受欢迎的活动）”承接上文，介绍了在户外可以进行的活动，上下文句意连贯。故选E。

⑤根据上文“In celebration of Qingming, people from Shaanxi make steamed buns known as Huamo, which are made into different shapes.（为了庆祝清明，陕西人会制作各种形状的馒头, 称为“花馍”）”中提到“花馍”，A项“Each different look brings a good blessing.（每一个不同的形状都带来了美好的祝福）”承接上文，介绍“花馍”每一个独特的形状都有美好的寓意,选项中“different look”与上文“different shapes”相照应，上下文句意连贯。故选A。
四、书面表达
Protect our cultural heritage
Dear Schoolmates,
As we can see, more and more historical relics have been damaged recently, and some of them are in danger of disappearing, which should draw everyone's attention.
Firstly, cultural heritage is a symbol of great ancient civilization offering us a chance to learn about what happened in the past. Secondly, it can help us pass down our traditional culture from generation to generation. Finally, awareness of protecting cultural heritage does help to boost our cultural confidence.
All in all, protecting cultural heritage is of great value. Let's take action in no time and do our best to treasure and protect it.
Thank you!

二、阅读理解（共4小题；每小题5分，满分20分）
My day is never complete without being outdoors and taking photos of wildlife, no matter what the season. My husband Mick and I took early retirement. Upon retirement, we moved from the Niagara region to the small town of Dwight, Ontario. Our home was on a small private lake in the country. Luckily, there was lots of wildlife to keep it interesting.
One of our neighbours, George, introduced me to the wonderful world of bird watching. George had many feeders in his yard and I quickly learned the names of the many local birds that visited them often. My favourite was the ruby-throated hummingbird(蜂鸟). These tiny, super fast little birds were both interesting and amazing to watch.
One summer day I went over to George's house and stood on a ladder(梯子) beside a feeder, trying to get a close-up of the tiny-winged bird, when it started to rain. I sheltered as I stood on the second-to-top rung of the ladder so my camera and I didn't get drenched. Then came the most amazing experience of my life. There must have been two dozen hummingbirds flying around me and the feeder for an hour or so, and I enjoyed feeling the air across my face created by their hardworking wings and watching some of them come right up to within inches of my face looking at me. I was able to get a few good close-up shots but what was most memorable was the feeling of being part of the hummingbird community.
When the sky cleared, I walked back to my lake house, still hearing the hum of two dozen little wings. That was when I decided I needed to put up my own hummingbird feeder to study and learn these little birds.
I bought a small feeder, filled it with sugar water and placed it in the tree outside my kitchen window. Within a short time I got my first little visitor. I'll never forget how excited I was and how excited I am today, even after six years, every time I see one.
11.Which of the following best describes the author
A. She has a generous spirit. B. She is a specialist in wildlife.
C. She loves to connect with nature. D. She finds it hard to get used to city life.
12.What does the underlined word "drenched" mean in Paragraph 3
A. Suddenly lost. B. Easily noticed.
C. Deeply attracted. D. Completely wet.
13.What was the author's most unforgettable experience
A. Taking photos of hummingbirds.
B. Getting really close to hummingbirds.
C. Going bird watching with her husband.
D. Setting up feeders to attract hummingbirds.
14.What happened after the author set up her own feeder
A. Her quiet life came to an end. B. A group of birds flew around her.
C. A hummingbird soon paid a visit. D. Sugar water in it was left untouched.

An Unforgettable Kite Festival
Last Saturday, our school held the Kite Festival successfully, which took place in our school playground. It began at 1:00 p.m., lasting 3 hours.
During the festival, all sorts of kites were on display, attracting many people to the spot to enjoy the wonderful sights. Some kite experts even showed how to make a kite on the scene. The most exciting moment was when students were flying kites.
Seeing the kites flying in the sky relaxed our eyes and cleared our mind. It was through the activity that we learned a lot about making kites and the history of them.
