“Colour” and “color”, “favourite” and “favorite”, “honour” and “honor”… Have you ever wondered why Americans spell those words without a “u” Is it because they are lazy Of course not. In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758 — 1843). He was a teacher who reformed (改革) English to make American identity (特征) stronger. Linguists (语言学家) celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.
After the Revolutionary War (1775 — 1783), Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary, rather than rely on British dictionaries. He dropped the British “u” in some words. And he changed “centre” into “center” for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded. He used “subway” instead of British word “underground”. Some other examples are “soccer” and “football”, “fall” and “autumn”.
Webster wasn’t shy about expressing his opinions. In defining (定义) preposterous(unreasonable), he wrote: “A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous.” Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000-word dictionary with his American-style spelling in 1828. He also added local words.
His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity (统一) and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.
“He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity,” said Joshua Kendall, who is working on a book about Webster. “He at last brought us together through our language.”
4．Which is NOT true about Webster’s dictionary
A．It has local words in it.
B．It is a 70,000-word dictionary.
C．All the words are spelled without “u”.
D．Its words are in American-style spelling.
5．What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Depend on. B．Trust in. C．Put up with. D．Give up.
6．What do people think of Webster’s dictionary
A．It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.
B．It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.
C．It has no influence on the development of American English.
D．It helped to make American English more useful than British English.
7．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．The development of the British English.
B．American English is better than British English.
C．Noah Webster added local words to the dictionary.
D．Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.
C
One August afternoon, Richard Allen dropped off his last passenger, Mrs. Carey. Lifting two grocery bags, he followed her across the yard and stood on the step of her house. Glancing up, he saw a large wasp (黄蜂) nest under the roof. Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting (蜇) in summer. He mentioned this to Mrs. Carey, who had opened the door.
“Oh, they don’t bother me,” she said lightly. “I go in and out all the time.”
Anxiously, Allen looked at the nest again—— to see the wasps flying straight at him. “Hurry!” he shouted to Mrs. Carey. “Get in!”
She stepped quickly inside. Allen ran for his mini-bus. Too late; they were upon him. Just as he jumped aboard, half a dozen red spots showed on his arm, and he felt more on his back and shoulders.
As he was driving down the road, Allen felt as if something was burning at the back of his neck, and the “fire” was spreading forward toward his face. And immediate anxiety took hold of him. Allen knew that stings could cause some persons to die. But he had been stung the previous summer and the after-effects soon passed. However, what he didn’t know what that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.
Miles from the nearest medical assistance, Allen began to feel his tongue thick and heavy and his heartbeat louder. Most frightening, he felt his breathing more and more difficult. He reached for the radio mike (话筒), trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable. Signals were also poor that far out. He knew a rescue team was on 24-hour duty at the Amherst Fire Department’s north station. So his best chance was to make a run for it.
Rushing down the mountain, Allen tried not to panic, focusing his mind on each sharp turn. He was almost through the last of them when he felt sure he was going into shock (休克). Just then he reached for the radio mike again.
“Call fire station,” he shouted, concentrating to form the words. “Emergency. Bee sting. Emergency. There in ten minutes.”
“Five-ten,” the center replied.
Hold on, Allen thought. Keep your eyes open. Breathe. Keep awake.
At last he reached the station. Two firemen ran out. Allen felt their hands grasp him before he hit the ground. You made it, he thought.
8．It is mentioned in the passage that wasps are more likely to attack when _______.
A．there are huge noises
B．strangers are approaching
C．the air is filled with food smell
D．the hottest season comes around
9．Allen didn’t know that if stung by wasps again, he would _______.
A．have no after-effects
B．suffer from sharper pain
C．surely lose his life
D．become more sensitive
10．Allen failed at his first attempt to send his message to the mini-bus center because _______.
A．he was unable to speak clearly
B．his radio equipment was poor
C．he was in a state of shock
D．no one was on duty
11．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Allen, A Helpless Driver
B．Wasps, Bloody Killers
C．A Race Against Death
D．War Against Wasps
D
Army ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.
Christopher Reid of the University of Sydney’s Insect Behaviour and Ecology Laboratory, said that when studying the ant bridge, he initially assumed that once the ant bridge was built the two end positions of the bridge would be fixed, and the bridge itself would be relatively stationary (不动的).
However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes. In this way, it can continuously compress the distance to the target area.
Meanwhile, the researchers have also found that the changing ant bridge does not always achieve the shortest distance. When the bridge is extended to a certain extent, the number of ants involved in the construction of the ant bridge will not continue to increase, and the length of the bridge will stop growing.
Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.
12．What is mainly introduced about army ants in paragraph 1
A．Their migration. B．Their distribution.
C．Their living habits. D．Their hunting targets.
13．What did the research find about the bridge built by army ants
A．It becomes longer constantly.
B．It keeps unchanged once built.
C．It achieves the shortest distance.
D．It is adjusted according to the needs.
14．What does the underlined word “compress” mean in paragraph 3
A．Reduce. B．Calculate. C．Neglect. D．Judge.
15．What is the writing purpose of the text
A．To stress the importance of cooperation.
B．To explain army ants’ incredible strength.
C．To show army ants’ collective intelligence.
D．To indicate the harmony between nature and human.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Usually, you spend most of your time at home. 16 However, with all the smells a home experiences, such as those created by cooking, people and pets, keeping it smelling good is often a difficult task. A bad-smelling home is not only unpleasant to visit, but gives the impression that your home is also unclean, which isn’t always the case. Fortunately, you can keep your home smelling fresh and clean with a few techniques.
17 Additionally, pick up any objects from the floor, such as clothing or towels, and place them in the box. Wash your dishes daily, which will keep your home smelling fresh.
Dust the objects in your home once weekly. Rub a soft cloth over your television and top of furniture to remove the dusty layer. Use a polishing spray for extra shine.
Wash your bedclothes on a weekly basis. Sheets, blankets and pillow cases often hold germs, which cause a smell to occur. So wash them regularly. 18
Bathe your dog and its bedding regularly. A dog’s smell can transmit from the animal to your floors, furniture and bedclothes. Wash the dog to prevent smells, as well as dirt, mud and other materials from being transferred from your dog to your items in your home. 19 Brushing daily can also release smells and materials that can cause the dog to create a foul smell in your home.
Shampoo（用洗涤剂洗）your carpets. 20 So the dirty carpets can make your entire home smell not-so-fresh. Cleaning carpets can remove any trapped smells as well.
A．Most dogs like having a bath.
B．Wipe down your kitchen daily.
C．You find your home is always in a mess.
D．Smells often become trapped in the material.
E．Most dogs benefit from an once-a-week bath.
F．Obviously, it’s worthwhile to spend time on them.
G．It is certain that you want a home which smells fresh.

Living in space is every would-be astronaut’s dream. My six-month stay on a space station 36 (come) to an end, and it has been 37 challenging but magical adventure. I bet you’d love to know what daily life is 38 up in space and how it differs from 39 on the Earth—the low gravity definitely makes ordinary things strange!
The 40 (strange) of living in space is apparent from the moment we sleep. The routine tasks that occupy most of the day are demanding, but they can also be 41 (extreme) rewarding. The most challenging work takes place when we need to perform tasks outside the space station. In view of the low-gravity environment, 42 (eat) is also different in space.
Spending some time in the gym is of vital importance to astronauts, health. We have to 43 (tie) onto specially designed exercise equipment 44 (stop) ourselves from floating around.
During our leisure time, there’s nothing we like more than to sit back 45 the rest of the crew and watch our remarkable planet go by, taking pictures for our family and friends back home.

【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了三篇广告，招聘不同的职位以及具体要求。
1．细节理解题。根据Driver Wanted部分“Clean driving license (执照).(干净的驾驶执照)”可知，应聘成为司机需要良好的驾驶记录，结合选项，“因超速和违章停车而受到处罚”会阻止杰克为Capes Taxi工作。故选B项 。
2．细节理解题。根据Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted部分“Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted(招聘国际航班空姐)”可知，“不想在国外长时间工作”会阻止25岁的玛丽成为国际航班的空姐。故选B项。

4．C 5．A 6．B 7．D
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了语言学家Noah Webster编制了美式英语字典，希望美式英语有自己的特点，在文化和国家统一方面产生了深远的影响。
4．细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“He dropped the British ‘u’ in some words.(他在一些单词中省略了英式的“u”。)”可知，只是一些单词里被省略了英式的“u”，并不是所有的单词。因此，选项C“All the words are spelled without ‘u’.(所有单词的拼写都没有“u”。) ”在表述上是错误的。故选C项。
5．词义猜测题。分析可知，画线短语前“rather than(而不是)”表达相反关系，而前文“Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary(Webster认为美国人应该有自己的字典)”表达了“有自己的美式字典”，即，不需要依赖英式词典。由此推知，“rely on”应是“依靠，依赖”含义，与选项A“Depend on.(依靠，依赖)”表达含义一致。故选A项。
6．推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.(语言学家认为，在大多数人关心政治自由的时候，它帮助一个新国家实现了统一和文化独立。)”可知，语言学家认为Webster的美式词典使美国在文化上实现了独立和统一，使美国人通过共同的美式英语走到了一起。由此可推知，在人们看来，除了它的文化影响外，它还帮助美国人团结起来。故选B项。
7．主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知，文章首段内容“In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster (1758-1843). He was a teacher who reformed English to make American identity stronger.(事实上，拼写上的差异始于Noah Webster（1758-1843）。他是一名教师，他改革了英式英语，使其更具有美式特点。)”为主题句，即，文章主要讲述了Noah Webster对英式英语的改革，编写了美式英语词典，使其更具备美式特点，在影响方面从文化方面延伸到国家统一。选项D“Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.(Noah Webster写了一本美国英语词典，改革了英语。)”可概括文章主旨大意。故选D项。
8．D 9．C 10．A 11．C
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了理查德·艾伦被黄蜂蜇后的自救的故事及与死亡作斗争的过程。
8．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting in summer.(艾伦听说黄蜂在夏天更容易蜇人。)”可知，文章中提到，当最热的季节到来时，黄蜂更容易攻击。故选D。
9．细节理解题。根据文章第五段“However, what he didn’t know was that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.(然而，他不知道的是，第一次刺痛已经把他的身体变成了一个定时炸弹，等待下一次引爆。)”可知，他并不知道的是他的第一次被蜇已经使他的身体变成了再蜇一次便随即爆炸的定时炸弹。由此可知，艾伦不知道，如果再被黄蜂蜇一下，他肯定会没命。故选C。
10．细节理解题。根据文章第六段“He reached for the radio mike , trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable.(他伸手去拿麦克风，试图给小巴中心打电话，但他的话让人听不懂。)”可知，艾伦第一次尝试向小巴中心发送信息时失败了，因为他说话不清楚。故选A。
11．主旨大意题。文章讲述了理查德·艾伦被黄蜂蜇后的自救的故事及与死亡作斗争的过程。由此可知，C项：A Race Against Death(与死亡赛跑)是最合适的标题。故选C。
12．C 13．D 14．A 15．C
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了军蚁的生活习性、集体行为以及它们在建造桥梁时展现出的智慧，通过具体的事例和观察结果来阐述军蚁的特点和行为模式。
12．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Army ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.(行军蚁主要分布在南美洲和非洲，主要生活在亚马逊河流域。它们喜欢群居，通常是一到两百万只。它们是迁徙的，没有固定的迁徙地点。当遇到缝隙等障碍物时，军蚁能够将彼此的身体连接在一起，为大群蚂蚁搭建桥梁，从而节省爬行距离。这座桥可以在几秒钟内迅速建造和拆除)”可知，本段主要介绍了军蚁的生活习性，如它们喜欢群居，一般一个群体有一两百万只，它们是迁徙性的，没有固定的住所，遇到障碍时可以连接身体建造桥梁等。故选C项。
13．细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes.(但经过观察发现，蚂蚁桥会根据军蚁对外部世界的了解情况不断变化。蚂蚁桥可以从原来的位置慢慢移动，增加桥中蚂蚁的数量，延长桥的长度，这样其他蚂蚁可以通过使用蚂蚁桥而不是走其他路线来节省很多精力)”可知，军蚁建造的桥梁会根据需要不断调整。故选D项。
14．词句猜测题。根据前文“The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes.(蚂蚁桥可以从原来的位置慢慢移动，增加桥中蚂蚁的数量，延长桥的长度，这样其他蚂蚁可以通过使用蚂蚁桥而不是走其他路线来节省很多精力)”可知，军蚁建造的桥梁可以不断增加蚂蚁的数量，延长桥梁的长度，这样其他蚂蚁就可以节省很多精力，而不是走其他路线。因此，军蚁建造桥梁的目的是为了不断“减少”到达目标区域的距离，即compress在这里的意思是“减少”，和A项意思相近。故选A项。
15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.(研究人员认为，军蚁在建造桥梁时使用了最好的方法。由于参与建造桥梁的蚂蚁无法参与其他工作，一旦发现用于建造桥梁的蚂蚁数量与其他工作所需的蚂蚁数量失衡，蚁群就会停止投入更多的蚂蚁)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了军蚁的集体智慧，如建造桥梁、根据外界情况不断调整桥梁等，因此写作目的是展示军蚁的集体智慧。故选C项。
16．G 17．B 18．F 19．E 20．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些使家里保持干净和气味清新的措施。
16．根据前一句“Usually, you spend most of your time at home.（通常，你的大部分时间都是在家里度过的）”可知，待在家里的时候肯定想要一个整洁的环境和闻起来清新的家。G项“你肯定想要有一个闻起来清新的家”符合语境。故选G。
17．根据空后“Additionally, pick up any objects from the floor, such as clothing or towels, and place them in the box. Wash your dishes daily, which will keep your home smelling fresh.（此外，从地板上捡起任何物品，如衣服或毛巾，并将其放入盒子中。每天洗碗，这会让你的家保持清新。）”可知，本段主要讲述怎么做才能保持家里清新整洁的具体措施，B项“每天打扫厨房”也是具体的举措之一，符合语境。故选B。
18．根据前文“Wash your bedclothes on a weekly basis.（每周洗一次床上用品。）”可知，每周洗一次床上用品也是保持家里整洁清新的必要措施，所以花费一些时间也是必要的。F项“显然，花时间在这些问题上是值得的。”符合语境。故选F。
19．根据前文“Bathe your dog and its bedding regularly.（定期给你的狗和它的被褥洗澡。）”可知，保持家里清新的必要措施是给狗和它的被褥洗澡，E项中的Most dogs呼应本文中的主题。“benefit from an once-a-week bath（从每周的洗澡中受益）”能够承接下文，讲述了给狗洗澡的好处。故选E。
20．根据“Shampoo（用洗涤剂洗）your carpets.（用洗涤剂清洗地毯）”可知，本段讲述为什么要清洗地毯，D项的 the material指的是carpets，以及空后“So the dirty carpets can make your entire home smell not-so-fresh. （所以脏地毯会让你的整个家闻起来不那么清新。）”可知，难闻的气味会藏在毛毯下，D项能够承上启下，符合语境。故选D。
21．C 22．D 23．D 24．C 25．A 26．C 27．D 28．C 29．B 30．A 31．A 32．B 33．C 34．D 35．C

46．Dear Jim,
I’m glad to hear you are planning to start a school club at your school. I’m writing to offer some suggestions as you requested in your last letter.
In my opinion, a Chinese painting club would be a good choice. My reasons are as follows. For one thing, Chinese painting is a form of art with a long history, which stands for the civilization of ancient China. For another, the club may appeal to many students, because there is no language barrier when it comes to the appreciation and creation of art.
I hope my advice will be of help to you and I wish you every success in the process of starting and running the club. I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

“Colour” and “color”, “favourite” and “favorite”, “honour” and “honor”… Have you ever wondered why Americans spell those words without a “u” Is it because they are lazy Of course not. In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758 — 1843). He was a teacher who reformed (改革) English to make American identity (特征) stronger. Linguists (语言学家) celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.
After the Revolutionary War (1775 — 1783), Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary, rather than rely on British dictionaries. He dropped the British “u” in some words. And he changed “centre” into “center” for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded. He used “subway” instead of British word “underground”. Some other examples are “soccer” and “football”, “fall” and “autumn”.
Webster wasn’t shy about expressing his opinions. In defining (定义) preposterous(unreasonable), he wrote: “A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous.” Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000-word dictionary with his American-style spelling in 1828. He also added local words.
His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity (统一) and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.
“He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity,” said Joshua Kendall, who is working on a book about Webster. “He at last brought us together through our language.”
4．Which is NOT true about Webster’s dictionary
A．It has local words in it.
B．It is a 70,000-word dictionary.
C．All the words are spelled without “u”.
D．Its words are in American-style spelling.
5．What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Depend on. B．Trust in. C．Put up with. D．Give up.
6．What do people think of Webster’s dictionary
A．It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.
B．It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.
C．It has no influence on the development of American English.
D．It helped to make American English more useful than British English.
7．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．The development of the British English.
B．American English is better than British English.
C．Noah Webster added local words to the dictionary.
D．Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.

One August afternoon, Richard Allen dropped off his last passenger, Mrs. Carey. Lifting two grocery bags, he followed her across the yard and stood on the step of her house. Glancing up, he saw a large wasp (黄蜂) nest under the roof. Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting (蜇) in summer. He mentioned this to Mrs. Carey, who had opened the door.
“Oh, they don’t bother me,” she said lightly. “I go in and out all the time.”
Anxiously, Allen looked at the nest again—— to see the wasps flying straight at him. “Hurry!” he shouted to Mrs. Carey. “Get in!”
She stepped quickly inside. Allen ran for his mini-bus. Too late; they were upon him. Just as he jumped aboard, half a dozen red spots showed on his arm, and he felt more on his back and shoulders.
As he was driving down the road, Allen felt as if something was burning at the back of his neck, and the “fire” was spreading forward toward his face. And immediate anxiety took hold of him. Allen knew that stings could cause some persons to die. But he had been stung the previous summer and the after-effects soon passed. However, what he didn’t know what that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.
Miles from the nearest medical assistance, Allen began to feel his tongue thick and heavy and his heartbeat louder. Most frightening, he felt his breathing more and more difficult. He reached for the radio mike (话筒), trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable. Signals were also poor that far out. He knew a rescue team was on 24-hour duty at the Amherst Fire Department’s north station. So his best chance was to make a run for it.
Rushing down the mountain, Allen tried not to panic, focusing his mind on each sharp turn. He was almost through the last of them when he felt sure he was going into shock (休克). Just then he reached for the radio mike again.
“Call fire station,” he shouted, concentrating to form the words. “Emergency. Bee sting. Emergency. There in ten minutes.”
“Five-ten,” the center replied.
Hold on, Allen thought. Keep your eyes open. Breathe. Keep awake.
At last he reached the station. Two firemen ran out. Allen felt their hands grasp him before he hit the ground. You made it, he thought.
8．It is mentioned in the passage that wasps are more likely to attack when _______.
A．there are huge noises
B．strangers are approaching
C．the air is filled with food smell
D．the hottest season comes around
9．Allen didn’t know that if stung by wasps again, he would _______.
A．have no after-effects
B．suffer from sharper pain
C．surely lose his life
D．become more sensitive
10．Allen failed at his first attempt to send his message to the mini-bus center because _______.
A．he was unable to speak clearly
B．his radio equipment was poor
C．he was in a state of shock
D．no one was on duty
11．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Allen, A Helpless Driver
B．Wasps, Bloody Killers
C．A Race Against Death
D．War Against Wasps

Army ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.
Christopher Reid of the University of Sydney’s Insect Behaviour and Ecology Laboratory, said that when studying the ant bridge, he initially assumed that once the ant bridge was built the two end positions of the bridge would be fixed, and the bridge itself would be relatively stationary (不动的).
However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes. In this way, it can continuously compress the distance to the target area.
Meanwhile, the researchers have also found that the changing ant bridge does not always achieve the shortest distance. When the bridge is extended to a certain extent, the number of ants involved in the construction of the ant bridge will not continue to increase, and the length of the bridge will stop growing.
Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.
12．What is mainly introduced about army ants in paragraph 1
A．Their migration. B．Their distribution.
C．Their living habits. D．Their hunting targets.
13．What did the research find about the bridge built by army ants
A．It becomes longer constantly.
B．It keeps unchanged once built.
C．It achieves the shortest distance.
D．It is adjusted according to the needs.
14．What does the underlined word “compress” mean in paragraph 3
A．Reduce. B．Calculate. C．Neglect. D．Judge.
15．What is the writing purpose of the text
A．To stress the importance of cooperation.
B．To explain army ants’ incredible strength.
C．To show army ants’ collective intelligence.
D．To indicate the harmony between nature and human.

Usually, you spend most of your time at home. 16 However, with all the smells a home experiences, such as those created by cooking, people and pets, keeping it smelling good is often a difficult task. A bad-smelling home is not only unpleasant to visit, but gives the impression that your home is also unclean, which isn’t always the case. Fortunately, you can keep your home smelling fresh and clean with a few techniques.
17 Additionally, pick up any objects from the floor, such as clothing or towels, and place them in the box. Wash your dishes daily, which will keep your home smelling fresh.
Dust the objects in your home once weekly. Rub a soft cloth over your television and top of furniture to remove the dusty layer. Use a polishing spray for extra shine.
Wash your bedclothes on a weekly basis. Sheets, blankets and pillow cases often hold germs, which cause a smell to occur. So wash them regularly. 18
Bathe your dog and its bedding regularly. A dog’s smell can transmit from the animal to your floors, furniture and bedclothes. Wash the dog to prevent smells, as well as dirt, mud and other materials from being transferred from your dog to your items in your home. 19 Brushing daily can also release smells and materials that can cause the dog to create a foul smell in your home.
Shampoo（用洗涤剂洗）your carpets. 20 So the dirty carpets can make your entire home smell not-so-fresh. Cleaning carpets can remove any trapped smells as well.
A．Most dogs like having a bath.
B．Wipe down your kitchen daily.
C．You find your home is always in a mess.
D．Smells often become trapped in the material.
E．Most dogs benefit from an once-a-week bath.
F．Obviously, it’s worthwhile to spend time on them.
G．It is certain that you want a home which smells fresh.

Living in space is every would-be astronaut’s dream. My six-month stay on a space station 36 (come) to an end, and it has been 37 challenging but magical adventure.

The 40 (strange) of living in space is apparent from the moment we sleep. The routine tasks that occupy most of the day are demanding, but they can also be 41 (extreme) rewarding. The most challenging work takes place when we need to perform tasks outside the space station. In view of the low-gravity environment, 42 (eat) is also different in space.
Spending some time in the gym is of vital importance to astronauts, health. We have to 43 (tie) onto specially designed exercise equipment 44 (stop) ourselves from floating around.
During our leisure time, there’s nothing we like more than to sit back 45 the rest of the crew and watch our remarkable planet go by, taking pictures for our family and friends back home.

2．细节理解题。根据Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted部分“Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted(招聘国际航班空姐)”可知，“不想在国外长时间工作”会阻止25岁的玛丽成为国际航班的空姐。故选B项。
3．细节理解题。根据Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted部分，“Air Hostesses for International Flights Wanted(招聘国际航班空姐)”可知，词是国际航班招聘空姐，广告提及了对性别的要求；根据Teachers Needed部分“Having college education. Teaching experience unnecessary.(受过大学教育。没有必要有教学经验)”可知，广告提及了对教育和工作经验的要求，文中没有提及婚姻要求。故选D项。
4．C 5．A 6．B 7．D
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了语言学家Noah Webster编制了美式英语字典，希望美式英语有自己的特点，在文化和国家统一方面产生了深远的影响。
4．细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“He dropped the British ‘u’ in some words.(他在一些单词中省略了英式的“u”。)”可知，只是一些单词里被省略了英式的“u”，并不是所有的单词。因此，选项C“All the words are spelled without ‘u’.(所有单词的拼写都没有“u”。) ”在表述上是错误的。故选C项。
5．词义猜测题。分析可知，画线短语前“rather than(而不是)”表达相反关系，而前文“Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary(Webster认为美国人应该有自己的字典)”表达了“有自己的美式字典”，即，不需要依赖英式词典。由此推知，“rely on”应是“依靠，依赖”含义，与选项A“Depend on.(依靠，依赖)”表达含义一致。故选A项。
6．推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.(语言学家认为，在大多数人关心政治自由的时候，它帮助一个新国家实现了统一和文化独立。)”可知，语言学家认为Webster的美式词典使美国在文化上实现了独立和统一，使美国人通过共同的美式英语走到了一起。由此可推知，在人们看来，除了它的文化影响外，它还帮助美国人团结起来。故选B项。
7．主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知，文章首段内容“In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster (1758-1843). He was a teacher who reformed English to make American identity stronger.(事实上，拼写上的差异始于Noah Webster（1758-1843）。他是一名教师，他改革了英式英语，使其更具有美式特点。)”为主题句，即，文章主要讲述了Noah Webster对英式英语的改革，编写了美式英语词典，使其更具备美式特点，在影响方面从文化方面延伸到国家统一。选项D“Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.(Noah Webster写了一本美国英语词典，改革了英语。)”可概括文章主旨大意。故选D项。
8．D 9．C 10．A 11．C
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了理查德·艾伦被黄蜂蜇后的自救的故事及与死亡作斗争的过程。
8．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting in summer.(艾伦听说黄蜂在夏天更容易蜇人。)”可知，文章中提到，当最热的季节到来时，黄蜂更容易攻击。故选D。
9．细节理解题。根据文章第五段“However, what he didn’t know was that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.(然而，他不知道的是，第一次刺痛已经把他的身体变成了一个定时炸弹，等待下一次引爆。)”可知，他并不知道的是他的第一次被蜇已经使他的身体变成了再蜇一次便随即爆炸的定时炸弹。由此可知，艾伦不知道，如果再被黄蜂蜇一下，他肯定会没命。故选C。
10．细节理解题。根据文章第六段“He reached for the radio mike , trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable.(他伸手去拿麦克风，试图给小巴中心打电话，但他的话让人听不懂。)”可知，艾伦第一次尝试向小巴中心发送信息时失败了，因为他说话不清楚。故选A。
11．主旨大意题。文章讲述了理查德·艾伦被黄蜂蜇后的自救的故事及与死亡作斗争的过程。由此可知，C项：A Race Against Death(与死亡赛跑)是最合适的标题。故选C。
12．C 13．D 14．A 15．C
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了军蚁的生活习性、集体行为以及它们在建造桥梁时展现出的智慧，通过具体的事例和观察结果来阐述军蚁的特点和行为模式。
12．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Army ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.(行军蚁主要分布在南美洲和非洲，主要生活在亚马逊河流域。它们喜欢群居，通常是一到两百万只。它们是迁徙的，没有固定的迁徙地点。当遇到缝隙等障碍物时，军蚁能够将彼此的身体连接在一起，为大群蚂蚁搭建桥梁，从而节省爬行距离。这座桥可以在几秒钟内迅速建造和拆除)”可知，本段主要介绍了军蚁的生活习性，如它们喜欢群居，一般一个群体有一两百万只，它们是迁徙性的，没有固定的住所，遇到障碍时可以连接身体建造桥梁等。故选C项。
13．细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes.(但经过观察发现，蚂蚁桥会根据军蚁对外部世界的了解情况不断变化。蚂蚁桥可以从原来的位置慢慢移动，增加桥中蚂蚁的数量，延长桥的长度，这样其他蚂蚁可以通过使用蚂蚁桥而不是走其他路线来节省很多精力)”可知，军蚁建造的桥梁会根据需要不断调整。故选D项。
14．词句猜测题。根据前文“The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes.(蚂蚁桥可以从原来的位置慢慢移动，增加桥中蚂蚁的数量，延长桥的长度，这样其他蚂蚁可以通过使用蚂蚁桥而不是走其他路线来节省很多精力)”可知，军蚁建造的桥梁可以不断增加蚂蚁的数量，延长桥梁的长度，这样其他蚂蚁就可以节省很多精力，而不是走其他路线。因此，军蚁建造桥梁的目的是为了不断“减少”到达目标区域的距离，即compress在这里的意思是“减少”，和A项意思相近。故选A项。
15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.(研究人员认为，军蚁在建造桥梁时使用了最好的方法。由于参与建造桥梁的蚂蚁无法参与其他工作，一旦发现用于建造桥梁的蚂蚁数量与其他工作所需的蚂蚁数量失衡，蚁群就会停止投入更多的蚂蚁)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了军蚁的集体智慧，如建造桥梁、根据外界情况不断调整桥梁等，因此写作目的是展示军蚁的集体智慧。故选C项。
16．G 17．B 18．F 19．E 20．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些使家里保持干净和气味清新的措施。

17．根据空后“Additionally, pick up any objects from the floor, such as clothing or towels, and place them in the box. Wash your dishes daily, which will keep your home smelling fresh.（此外，从地板上捡起任何物品，如衣服或毛巾，并将其放入盒子中。每天洗碗，这会让你的家保持清新。）”可知，本段主要讲述怎么做才能保持家里清新整洁的具体措施，B项“每天打扫厨房”也是具体的举措之一，符合语境。故选B。
18．根据前文“Wash your bedclothes on a weekly basis.（每周洗一次床上用品。）”可知，每周洗一次床上用品也是保持家里整洁清新的必要措施，所以花费一些时间也是必要的。F项“显然，花时间在这些问题上是值得的。”符合语境。故选F。
19．根据前文“Bathe your dog and its bedding regularly.（定期给你的狗和它的被褥洗澡。）”可知，保持家里清新的必要措施是给狗和它的被褥洗澡，E项中的Most dogs呼应本文中的主题。“benefit from an once-a-week bath（从每周的洗澡中受益）”能够承接下文，讲述了给狗洗澡的好处。故选E。
20．根据“Shampoo（用洗涤剂洗）your carpets.（用洗涤剂清洗地毯）”可知，本段讲述为什么要清洗地毯，D项的 the material指的是carpets，以及空后“So the dirty carpets can make your entire home smell not-so-fresh. （所以脏地毯会让你的整个家闻起来不那么清新。）”可知，难闻的气味会藏在毛毯下，D项能够承上启下，符合语境。故选D。

46．Dear Jim,
I’m glad to hear you are planning to start a school club at your school. I’m writing to offer some suggestions as you requested in your last letter.
In my opinion, a Chinese painting club would be a good choice. My reasons are as follows. For one thing, Chinese painting is a form of art with a long history, which stands for the civilization of ancient China. For another, the club may appeal to many students, because there is no language barrier when it comes to the appreciation and creation of art.
I hope my advice will be of help to you and I wish you every success in the process of starting and running the club. I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

47．One possible version:
After the game, Gustavo and Felipe stay on the field to practice. Gustavo shows Felipe how he kicks with his lucky left foot. When Felipe tries to kick the ball, it goes in the wrong direction. Gustavo doesn’t laugh at Felipe. Instead, he looks and sees that Felipe is kicking the wrong part of the ball with his foot.
