A group of swans flew down to a beach. There was a crow (乌鸦) jumping around. The crow watched them and looked down on them.
“You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air No, that’s not for you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
One of the swans took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, did other flying tricks, and then came down and looked at the swan proudly.
Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so tired that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to try to keep himself from falling into the water.
The swan said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother Is that another trick “
“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride (骄傲) ! If you don’ t help me, I’ll lose my life…”

Now, a new AI tool (工具) is used in the making of new movies.
This new AI tool is called “Deepfakes”. It can take out the actor’s picture/photo from an old movie and use it to create a “Digital image (数字形象)” for a new movie. For example, “Deepfakes” can make it seem as if the person is saying words. But in fact, he never said. In Hollywood, the tool has been used to make actors look younger and to solve other problems.
For Duncan, he thinks actors have their qualities (特征), such as appearance and voice. These qualities make them different from the others. If the moviemakers (制片人) always use “Deepfakes”, these actors will lose their jobs. Besides, it is unfair to use actors’ images without paying money and the admission of the author. While many actors are worried about AI, others can accept it. Harrison Ford doesn’t mind about moviemakers using AI. Ford first played Indiana Jones in the 1980s. Now he is 80 years old. By using “Deepfakes”, Ford will appear in the movie Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny again.
“Though I think ‘Deepfakes’ is a good tool, moviemakers must do it with more things, such as the actors’ personalities instead of just copying old movies. Or everything made in the future is going to be the copy of the old works”, said Duncan.
38.What is talked about in this text
A.“Deepfakes”. B.Moviemakers. C.The making of new movies. D.Digital image.
39.What is right about the new AI tool
A.This new AI tool is called “Digital image”.
B.It can take out the actor’s picture/photo from an old movie.
C.It can’t make it seem as if the person is saying words.
D.In Hollywood, the tool is going to be used to make actors look younger.
40.What can Duncan agree with
A.The same qualities will help actors get better jobs. B.All can use actors’ images free.
C.There will be no future for the movie. D.“Deepfakes” can be used in some parts of the movie.
41.Which is not right
A.Actors have their own qualities.
B.Ford agrees to use “Deepfakes”.
C.Digital image is the thing happened in the past.
D.The “Deepfakes” really make many actors worried.
D
(One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock, then damaged. He was washed to the beach. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of tiny people were around him.)
The Emperor spoke in a low voice but I could hear all the words clearly. His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages. No one could understand me, not even the cleverest of the Emperor’s followers.
After about two hours the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants went also. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me.
An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment. I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended (假装) to eat the sixth man.
The poor man screamed terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. I only cut the rope round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too.
The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness. They told the Emperor about it immediately. Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.
At the same time the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. They were very worried. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.
The wise men thought that they should kill me. But they would not be able to bury (埋葬) me. My dead body would smell. This might cause much illness all over the country.

A.They wanted to kill him and got his eyes.
B.They were afraid of him because he was too big.
C.They thought he would attack the king.
D.They liked him so much and wanted to make fun of him.
43.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refers to (指代) “________” .
A.the guards B.the officers C.the six men D.the soldiers
44.Put the following statements in the correct order according to the story.
①The Emperor ordered his men to make a big bed for Gulliver.
②They couldn’t understand each other.
③The Emperor spoke.
④Gulliver didn’t punish the six tiny people and let them go.
⑤The Emperor left.
A.③⑤②①④ B.③②⑤④① C.⑤①④③② D.②⑤①③④
45.Why didn’t the tiny people in Lilliput kill Gulliver finally
A.He was so strong that he would work for them.
B.He was so big and they didn’t have the weapon to kill him.
C.The Emperor and his family liked him so much that they didn’t agree

I had to wait for a long time and it was starting to get dark when the man finally woke up. He stood up and took off the blanket. It was Jim, Miss Watson’s slave! I jumped out and ran up to him.
“Jim!” I said. “It’s me, Huck!”
“Huck! Is it really you ” Jim said, with a big smile.
“Yes, Jim, and I’m really happy to see you. But what are you doing here ”
“Well, alright then. The other day a businessman from New Orleans came to the house. I knew that Miss Watson wanted to sell me. I was scared. Then I ran away and hid on the island.”
We sat there chatting for a long time. I liked talking to Jim because he knew a lot of things. He understood signs. He knew which ones meant good luck and which ones meant bad luck. He knew which signs meant bad weather, too. When he saw some birds flying low in the sky he said, “It’s going to rain later, Huck. We must find a dry place to make a camp.”
The next day we climbed to the top of a big hill in the middle of the island and found a cave in the rock.

Travel can teach kids more than a textbook. Travelling with kids is good for them. They can find new interests. Travel makes information alive for kids, and makes it much more exciting than studying textbooks in the school.

题号 41 42 43 44 45
答案 C B C B D
1.A
【详解】句意:——这是我告诉你很多次的电影。——太棒了。我从未见过比这更有趣的了。
考查冠词。根据“film I’ve told you many times”可知此处特指“我”告诉你很多次的电影,用定冠词the;第二个空泛指“一个更有趣的电影”,more以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a。故选A。
2.A
【详解】句意:你们学校的机房比我们学校的大得多。
考查代词辨析。those那些;that那个;ones一些;it它。为了避免重复,比较级的句子中用that或those代替前文出现的名词,结合computer rooms可知,用those指代,故选A。
3.C
【详解】句意:——看!过山车在以多么高的速度在运行呀!——哇!我现在开始感到头晕目眩。
考查感叹句和介词短语。根据“high speed”可知,中心词是不可数名词speed,符合感叹句结构“what+形容词+不可数名词+主语+谓语+其他”,因此第一空“What high speed”符合句意;“以……速度”用介词at,故选C。
4.B
【详解】句意:黄山可能会下雨,但天气很好。
考查不可数名词。此处是there be句型,空处用名词作主语,排除C;rain是不可数名词,排除AD。故选B。
5.D
【详解】句意:——为了改善当地人民的生活,政府建了一个体育中心。——太好了。有更多的地方让人们玩得开心。
考查非谓语动词。根据“local people’s life, the government has built a sports centre.”可知,政府修建体育中心的目的是为了改善当地人的生活,空处用不定式作目的状语。故选D。
6.D
【详解】句意:自从他们上次见面已经半年了。
考查连词。until直到;before之前;while当、然而;since自从。句型“It is/has been+时间段+since+一般过去时从句”意思是“自从……已经……时间了。”,故选D。
7.A
【详解】句意:——看!门口的那个人一定是我们的校长。他每天早上总是站在那里。 — —不,不能是他。他正在办公室开会。must一定,必须;mustn't不可以;can't不可能;根据本题的前句He is always standing there every morning,可知校长总是站在门旁,那么在门旁的那个人是校长的可能性很大,故用must;再根据He is holding a meeting in the office now,可知校长正在开会,那么在门旁的那个人不可能是校长,故用can't,表不可能。故选A。
8.B
【详解】句意:——你的叔叔离开家乡有多久了?——他离开将近20年了。
考查特殊疑问句和现在完成时。第一个空后的leave“离开”是短暂性动词,How long后面的动词应该用延续性动作,所以选项C、D不正确;第二个空后的for nearly twenty years表示“持续了将近二十年”,时态应为现在完成时,应将短暂性动词转换为延续性动词be away,主语为He为第三人称单数形式,结合现在完成时结构故为has been away。故选B。
9.C
【详解】句意:如果温度低于0℃,水在户外会变成冰。
考查动词短语。turn up开大声音;turn on打开;turn into变成;turn down关小。根据“water will...ice”可知是水变成冰。故选C。
10.C
【详解】句意:这些年来,我们曾经习惯的生活发生了很大的变化。考查现在完成时。A. changing动名词;B. changed过去式;C. has changed现在完成时;D. change改变,动词原形。题干中 we were used to 是定语,修饰名词life ,所以句子就变成了 The life ____ a lot over the years.现在完成时基本用法之一:表示过去已经开始,持续到现在,而且还可能继续下去的动作或状态;根据over the years,可知变化已经发生并有可能会持续下去,应该用现在完成时态。现在完成时态的构成:助动词have/has+过去分词,主语 The life,是第三人单数,所以应该用has,change的过去分词是changed;故答案选C。
11.D
【详解】句意:越来越多的高中生想出国深造。
考查动词短语及形容词辨析。abroad在国外,为副词,其前不加to,即go abroad“出国”;farther更远的,强调距离;further进一步的,强调程度。根据“study”可知,此处是指进一步的学习,指程度,用further,further study表示“深造”。故选D。
12.C
【详解】句意:我不能像以前那样经常和我的朋友玩游戏了,因为我有太多的作业要做。
考查副词原级。as many as和……一样多;as good as和……一样好;as often as和……一样经常;as free as和……一样自由。根据“because I have too much homework to do”可知,是指不能和以前一样经常玩游戏了,故选C。
13.C
【详解】句意:你为我买到新加坡的票你真好。
考查介词用法。kind 可以指人的品性,用of 指人的品性。It is 形容词 of sb to do sth,固定用法,做某事某人真……。故排除AB;a ticket to...表示“到某地的票”。故选C。
14.C
【详解】句意:——我不认为这件外套有什么问题。——它很合身。
考查复合不定代词和定语后置。something wrong出了问题;wrong something错误表达;anything wrong出了问题;wrong anything错误表达。wrong是形容词,something和anything是复合不定代词,其修饰成分都要置于其后,所以选项B和选项D都表达错误;something常用于肯定句中,anything常用于否定句和疑问句中,根据“I don’t think there is...with the coat.”可知,这是一个否定句。故选C。
15.B
【详解】句意:——寒假期间我打算去庐山游玩。——真的吗?玩得开心。
考查情景交际。See you soon再见;Have fun玩得开心;It’s nice of you你真好;That’s all right没关系。根据“I am going to visit Mount Lu during the winter holiday.”可知对方打算去游玩,Have fun符合情境。故选B。
16.A 17.C 18.B 19.B 20.D 21.A 22.C 23.B 24.D 25.D 26.A 27.B 28.B 29.A 30.C

16.句意:你有没有问过你自己为什么孩子要上学?
yourself你自己;your children你的孩子;the parents父母;the teachers老师。根据原文“You may…they go to learn Chinese, Art, History”可知,你自己回答,所以是问自己,故选A。

76.例文
Changes to my hometown
My home town has changed a lot over the past few years.
In the past, people lived in small old houses. Now most of them have moved into new flats. Years ago, there were only narrow and dirty roads in the small town. There was rubbish every where. But now the streets are wide and clean. People used to listen to the radio or watch TV in their free time, but now most families have computers and the Internet. People are crazy about surfing on the Internet and taking exercise. In the past, people travelled around on foot or by bicycle, but now they can go around by car or by underground. The railway station and the airport have been in use for years. People used to keep in touch by letter, but now we use mobiles or send and receive emails.
I think my hometown is better than before. Now people are enjoying a comfortable life.
