三、阅读理解
Welcome back to Word Up, our new programme about languages. This week, let’s learn about ideograms, pictograms and logograms. IDEOGRAMS They are symbols of ideas or thoughts. For example, symbols of numbers and maths are ideograms. “1, 2, 3” stand for “one, two, three” or any other language system of counting. “+” always means “addition”, and “=” always means “equal”, no matter what language you use! PICTOGRAMS They are pictures. They show the words they stand for. People use them to communicate, too. A new system of pictograms is still developing today. Can you guess what it is That’s right —emoji! Do you know the pictograms below LOGOGRAMS They are the symbols that stand for words or parts of words. Logograms may look like what the words mean, but many of them do not. Chinese characters are also logograms. Some of them have changed over time from pictograms, as shown here.
26．What is the passage mainly about
A．Maths. B．Rules. C．Pictures. D．Languages.

As a child, I spent each Thanksgiving with my large family at my grandparents’ house in Maryland, US. It’s a wooden cabin (小屋) on the side of a hill, deep in the forest, above a small, grassy field. For me, that cabin meant Thanksgiving.
Our first greeting was the excited barking of Grandma’s dog, Jesse. He met us at our car and jumped up at us as we carried our bags into the house. Inside were my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. Aunt Sue touched my face and told me how big I’d gotten. Grandpa gave me a strong handshake and shouted, “What do you say, Cal !”, which is old man’s English for “Hello, Calvin!”
The next day, by the time I woke up, Grandma and Mom had already begun cooking. Throughout the day we all helped out. The cabin was small, so we had to creatively move the furniture (家具) to make room for everyone to sit at the long table together.
Dinner was finally served at about 4 pm. Before we ate, Grandma asked each person to say at least one thing that he or she was thankful for. I said, “I’m thankful for my parents, my grandma and the turkey!” I was too hungry to think of anything better. Once everyone was finished speaking, we dug in. It was all delicious food. Even better were the homemade apple and pumpkin pies (南瓜派).
After dinner, we took a long walk through the woods around the cabin. Under the late-autumn stars, we made a campfire (营火) in the field and told stories. I looked back up the hill at the cabin in the moonlight, and one word appeared in my mind: “Thanks”.

Do you know why you get angry so easily, but your friend smiles all the time It’s because you both have different personalities. Then what is personality It’s about how people think, behave and react to everything around them.
So what makes people think and behave in certain ways Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its genes and blood type when it is still inside its mother. These may help decide what the baby will be like.
But one’s personality doesn’t stop here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. But this doesn’t mean you can’t change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don’t get too worried if you don’t have a good personality. ★ This is a good way to start making changes.
For example, if you don’t know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you’re too shy If so, tell yourself to smile at people. Start talking to people kindly. But don’t give yourself a hard time about it all. After all, it’s not easy to change lifelong habits in one night. Just keep trying, one day you can see that you can turn over a new leaf and be a new you!

The very fast changes and developments in technology are regular news items. Our children are growing up in a world that is more grounded in technology than ever before.
Children nowadays don’t recognize the technology their parents grew up with. There are videos and articles that show children trying to use outdated technology. It is funny to watch them try to work out what to do with a telephone that doesn’t have a touch screen. Also watch the video about children trying to work out what to do with a cassette tape and a Walkman. The concepts and machines once familiar to parents are now very alien to their kids.
Who can remember when black and white television became colour television
One parent posted on social media that she was watching a re-run of a show popular in the 1950s with her young son. He asked her what was wrong with the television because the show had been filmed in black and white. He had never seen anything on television in black and white.
Television channels now broadcast 24 hours a day. In the past, television had a start and finish time. After the last program, the test pattern appeared on the screen. It showed that the transmitter was working but that no program was being broadcast. These patterns were also used when there was a problem with the broadcasting. Can you imagine what children would do now if they saw this kind of symbol on the screen in front of them
To show children the technology that their parents once used, but which children don’t understand is the focus of the travelling exhibit the National History Museum has put together. It features items that are now just a memory for the older generation. Go and see the exhibition now!
39．What does the underlined word “grounded” mean in Paragraph 1
1. (v) to connect an electrical device to the ground

3. (v) to teach someone thoroughly in a subject
e.g. The student was grounded in how computers worked by his teacher.
4. (v) to be punished by your parents
e.g. She was grounded because she played online games and did not do her homework.
A．1. B．2. C．3. D．4.

阅读下面短文，回答短文后面的各个小题。
Farmer Pak Sadiman has made it his task to do something about Central Java’s water shortage problem, little by little.
He has changed his dry village into a place rich in ground water by planting trees on nearby land for the last 19 years, and he is encouraging others to join in, too.
Sadiman realized that the land was in need of some water when the Gendol River - previously (以前) the source of water for villagers — was quickly drying up: Even rubber trees, the local people’s main source of income (收入来源), were so dry that they could no longer produce rubber latex (橡胶乳). It was then that Sadiman took action so that his children and grandchildren could take advantage of the planted trees,
“Banyan (榕树) trees, unlike rubber trees, can keep groundwater. The more banyan trees are planted, the more clean water villagers will get,” he thought. Although he went through a hard time, the farmer never became discouraged from achieving his goal — providing his village with a clean water source.
He’s planted at least 11,000 trees over the last 19 years, and his village seems to have escaped from the dry season. Villagers have joined in Sadiman’s efforts and worked alongside him to plant the trees. “Pak Sadiman is our hero. This village used to fight with water shortage, but now we have enough water because of him,” said the head of the village.
Sadiman said as long as he’s healthy, he’ll continue to plant trees to help provide clean water for his villagers.
73．What problem did the village have
74．What did Sadiman do to solve the problem
75．How long had Sadiman been working on the task
76．What does the underlined words “escape from” in Paragraph 5 mean
77．What do you think of Sadiman

【导语】本文主要讲述了衣服就是一种时尚，它在随着社会的改变而改变。
43．句意：让我温暖，遮盖我的身体。
covering遮盖，现在分词/动名词； to covering介词to+动名词；covered过去式/过去分词；cover 动词原形。and连接并列成分，结合“To make”可知，此处也应用不定式，但是前面已经有了不定式符号to，为避免重复，此处用原形即可，故选D。
44．句意：这就是为什么人们穿衣服，但人们也想看起来有吸引力，在别人看来是成功的。
why为什么；what什么；how如何；when什么时候。上文“To make me warm and...my body”解释的是人们穿衣服的原因，所以此处用why引导表语从句，故选A。
45．句意：如果人们穿衣服只是为了保暖和遮盖身体，大多数衣服将是简单和便宜的。
they他们；their他们的，形容词性物主代词；themselves他们自己；theirs他们的，名词性物主代词。 空处修饰名词bodies，所以用名词性物主代词their修饰，故选B。
46．句意：如果人们穿衣服只是为了保暖和遮盖身体，大多数衣服将是简单和便宜的。
simple简单的；simpler更简单的；simplest最简单的；simply简直。空处和“cheap”是并列关系，所以也应用形容词原级，故选A。
47．句意：造成这种情况的主要原因不是材料的成本或制作衣服的成本。
make制作，原形；making现在分词/动名词；made过去式和过去分词形式；will make一般将来时。of是介词，其后跟动名词作宾语，故选B。
48．句意：因为流行，这些衣服很贵。
because of因为；so所以；if如果；though尽管。 空后“fashion”Hier空前“衣服贵”的原因，所以用because of。故选A。
49．句意：所以他们花几千美元买一套西装，花几百美元买一条领带。
thousands千，复数；thousand钱，单数；thousands of成千上万的，数千；thousand of 错误表达。空前没有数词，所以空处用概数thousands of，故选C。
50．句意：它仍然只是一套西装和一条领带，但他们支付这些价格是因为著名的设计师。
a不定冠词，表示泛指，用在以辅音音素开头的单词前；an不定冠词，表示泛指，用在以元音音素开头的单词前；the定冠词，表示特指；/ 不填。此处指“一条领带”，且tie是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用a修饰，故选A。
51．句意：时尚在不断变化。
changed改变，一般过去时；had changed现在完成时；was changing过去进行时；is changing现在进行时。根据“constantly”可知，此处指在不断变化，用现在进行时。故选D。
52．句意：这意味着想要赶时髦的人不得不每隔几个月就买一件衣服，即使上个月的衣服只穿过一两次。
last months’错误表达；last month上个月；last month’s上个月的；last months错误表达；空处作定语修饰名词clothes，所以用名词所有格，故选C。
53．to deal with
【详解】“处理”对应的短语是deal with。learn to do sth“学习做某事”。故空格处用不定式作宾语。故填to deal with。
54． all the time
【详解】一直all the time。根据句意结构和中英文提示，可知填(1). all (2). the (3). time。
55． It is hard to used to
【详解】根据中英文提示可知，此处使用it固定句型，时态为一般现在时，it is+形容词+to do sth.“做某事是……的”，其中it作形式主语，动词不定式作真正的主语，hard“困难的”，形容词；used to do sth.“过去常常做某事”。故填It；is；hard；to；used；to。
56． in
person
【详解】通过中英文句子对照可知，英文句子中需要翻译的部分是“亲自”，英文表达是in person，固定搭配。故填in；person。
57．be nervous about
【详解】由汉语意思可知，所填词表达“感觉紧张”，be nervous about对……感觉紧张。此句为将来时，其构成为“will+动词原形”，故填be nervous about。
58．supports
【详解】句意：生活中真正的朋友总是在你遇到困难时支持你。根据句意可知填写“支持”，即support。根据always可知是一般现在时态，主语为a true friend，是单数，故填supports。
