非选择题
四、词汇应用
41．unfair

42．to pass
【详解】句意：通过考试的最好方法是一年中的每一天都努力学习。根据“The best way ... an exam is to work hard every day in a year.”可知，“The best way”后面接动词不定式形式作定语，表示“做某事的最好方法”，因此“pass”应使用不定式形式“to pass”。故填to pass。

47．offer
【详解】句意：如果你在这里工作，公司可以为你提供午餐。提供：offer，动词。由“lunch to you”可知，“offer sth. to sb.”是一个固定搭配，意思是“向某人提供某物”。“can”是情态动词，后面要跟动词原形。故填offer。

五、完成句子

53．neither did
【详解】中英对照可知，空处意为“我也没做”，neither + 助动词/情态动词 /be 动词 + 主语是固定的倒装结构，表示“……也不”，用于前面所说的否定情况也适用于另一个人或事物，原句中前半句“she did not do any housework” 是一般过去时的否定句，其句子中含有实义动词do，后半句要与前半句的否定情况，时态，以及动词保持一致。故填neither；did。
54．It’s for to learn

55．throw them away
【详解】根据中英文比对可知，缺“把它们扔掉”。throw away“把……扔掉”，这里和前文to take old clothes作并列表语，用动词原形；“它们”，这里指代前面提到的old clothes，故用them替代，throw away接代词放中间。故填throw；them；away。
六、短文语法填空
56．(t)hat 57．to create 58．passed 59．Since 60．active 61．interest/interests/hobby/hobbies 62．cookies 63．(v)aluable 64．yet 65．have won

59．句意：自那时以来，全世界的人们以多种方式庆祝这个节日。根据“have celebrated”可知，时态为现在完成时。“since 自……以来”。故填Since。

三、阅读单选（本大题共15小题，每小题1分，共15分）
（A）
When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward(奖励) It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.
One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also says, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”
Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding them also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that they need to work to make money. Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.
So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.
( )26．Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion
A．Don’t ask kids to do housework. B．Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores.
C．Don’t allow kids to play computer games. D．Don’t let children play a part in doing chores.
( )27．What do people want to teach kids by giving kids rewards for doing chores
A．People need to work to make money.
B．Doing chores is a good way to make money.
C．They can only be allowed to watch TV by doing chores.
D．They must share housework because they live in the same house.
( )28．Which idea may the writer agree with
A．Parents should give rewards to let their kids do chores.
B．Kids should offer to help with chores at home.
C．Apps are better choices for parents than money.
D．We don’t know what’s the best way to get kids helping.
（B）
Many kids help their parents to do chores such as washing the dishes, cleaning the floors and taking out the rubbish in the house. And some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as playing computer games for 20 minutes.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton, a parenting educator. She believes that if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn’t worth (值得) doing unless they can get something. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. Susie said, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that it’s all the family members’ job to keep their homes clean.”
Other people have different opinions (观点). They believe that money or other rewards can encourage (鼓励) kids to do more chores. It also teaches them a real world lesson that we need to work to make money. Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and gifts that can be used either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids get points after doing chores. Kids can exchange (交换) their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall.

“Time to wake up!” I pull the pillow over my head. It isn’t time to wake up already, is it
“Come on, get out of bed,” says Dad. “I need your sheets.” Oh, right. It’s Saturday. Laundry day. Dad has a new idea. He doesn’t use the dryer anymore, at least in summer. Instead, I have to hang all the laundry on a clothesline in the backyard. It seems like a lot of work. And it means I can’t sleep in on Saturday.
Dad gets the washing started early. That way all the clothes can dry by the end of the day. “Up,” says Dad as he starts pulling the sheets off the bed. I drop off the bed onto the floor. “Go hang these!” Dad drops a wet sheet on me. It’s so cold! What a way to wake up!
After I hang up the sheet, I come inside and find Dad in the kitchen. He’s made pancakes. Dad sits down across from me. “Why so sad ” “Stupid laundry,” I said. “It takes forever!” “Well, you know we have to do laundry, right ” “Yup.” “And you realize that I collect the laundry, wash it, take it off the line, fold it, and put it away ” I am starting to feel guilty. “And you have to help out around here, right ” “I know, Dad. I also know that by hanging the laundry instead of using the dryer, we can save more energy. And that means we spend less and pollute less.” Dad is glad that I remember all that.
I’m quiet for a minute. I think I have to stop complaining（抱怨）about hanging the rest of the laundry.
