“I can’t believe what I’m hearing!” I thought to myself. I thought Jeff was the last candidate (候选人) for president of the Students’ Union. My best friend Tony came to me and said, “I’m sorry. I really thought you should be 16 .”
Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the school dining hall. I offered him a(an) 17 “congratulations” and walked away to my usual table. To my 18 , Jeff put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, …er, er—I’m just wondering 19 you would…er…consider (考虑) coming to work on my team,” he said 20 . “You are really smart, and you would be a great partner.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling 21 .
“Well, if you change your mind, we are meeting tomorrow.”
All that right, I thought about the offer from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election (选举) process would give me a 22 to make important changes at our school. I decided to join them.
My first goal was to 23 an eye-catching advertisement. Within a few days, we completed a poster with Jeff’s pictures showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through the hallway 24 noticing Jeff’s smiling face.
My next step was to 25 which new activities students would like to have at our school. Many of them wanted a 26 club.
With the information I had collected, Jeff had a conversation with the headmaster. Soon a volleyball team and a football team were 27 to add to our after-school programme.
Many students said, “It’ll be like attending a new school with Jeff as president of the Students’ Union.”
Hearing these words made my heart filled with a 28 of achievement (成就). I had wanted to become president of the Students’ Union to do things for students myself. Now I’ve achieved that and 29 more by working as a member of Jeff’s team. He’s become the most popular candidate and I am a big part of his success. The fact that it has made a change to other people’s lives is the real 30 . What a great feeling!

Today, cities are getting bigger and busier. They change a lot. How can we live more easily Smart cities(智慧城市) may help.
In 2010, the idea of smart cities came from the technology company IBM first. It says that by 2050, about 60% people around the world will live in smart cities. In fact, a smart city can be like a big and clever machine. For example, the rubbish bins “tell” workers when to clean. The buildings can “talk” to computers to help save energy. Different technologies make all these things come true. They work together to make a city smart.
Internet of thingsWhen you are close to your home, your smartwatch tells your home to turn on the lights. Internet of things can help to do this. Almost everything connects to the Internet. It’s like having lots of little smart helpers. Big data(数据)Big data does a lot for the city. It helps the city decide important things. For example, data about cars running in the city tells us about heavy traffic. In the weather reports, data can tell us if it is going to rain.
5G5G provides high-speed Internet. It makes the Internet of things possible. Ideally, the speed of 5G can be up to 10 GB per second. That can be 10 times faster than 4G. We can download(下载) an 8 GB film in just a few seconds. AIAI helps to do with the data. More importantly, it learns from the data and becomes smarter. AI can work as a postman, a tour guide, or even help to design cars and make people work in a safe way.
34．From the article, we know a smart city ________.
A．needs no cleaners B．connects to the Internet
C．is full of clever people D．is a small smart machine
35．Which of the following is TRUE according to the article
A．Big data can decide the change of the weather.
B．We can download a 10 GB film quickly and easily.
C．People can turn on lights before reaching home with 5G.
D．People work more safely in smart cities because of big data.
36．The article is mainly about ________.
A．why life is busier now B．how we can get ready for changes
C．what makes a city smart D．when smart cities will come true
Pip meets a stranger
My first name was Philip, but when I was a small child, I could only manage to say Pip. So Pip was what everybody called me. I lived in a small village in Essex with my sister, who was over twenty years older than me, and married to Joe Gargery, the village blacksmith (铁匠). My parents had died when I was a baby, so I could not remember them at all, but quite often I used to visit the churchyard, about a mile from the village, to look at their names on their gravestones (墓碑).
My first memory is of sitting on a gravestone in that churchyard one cold, grey, December afternoon, looking out at the dark, flat, wild marshes divided by the black line of the River Thames, and listening to the rushing sound of the sea in the distance.
“Don’t say a word!” cried a terrible voice, as a man jumped up from among the graves and caught hold of me. “If you shout, I’ll cut your throat (喉咙)!” He was a big man, dressed all in grey, with an iron chain (铁链) on his leg. His clothes were wet and torn. He looked tired, and hungry, and very fierce (凶狠的). I had never been so scared in my whole life.
“Oh! Don’t cut my throat, sir!” I begged in fear.
“Tell me your name, boy! Quick!” he said, still holding me. “And show me where you live!”
“My name’s Pip, sir. And I live in the village over there.”
He picked me up and turned me upside down. Nothing fell out of my pocket except a piece of old bread. He ate it in two bites, like a dog, and put me back on the gravestone.
“So where are your father and mother ” he asked.
“There, sit,” I answered, pointing to their graves.
“What!” he cried, and was about to run, when he saw where I was pointing. “Oh!” he said. “I see. They’re dead. Well, who do you live with, if I let you live, which I haven’t decided yet ”
“With my sister, sir, wife of Joe Gargery, the Blacksmith.”
“Blacksmith, you say ” And he looked down at his leg. Then he held me by both arms and stared (注视) fiercely down into my eyes.
“Now look here. You bring me a file. You know what that is And you bring me some food. If you don’t, or if you tell anyone about me, I’ll cut your heart out.”
“I promise I’ll do it, sir,” I answered. I was badly scared and my whole body was shaking.
“You see,” he continued, smiling unpleasantly, “I travel with a young man, a friend of mine, who roasts boys’ hearts and eats them. He’ll find you, wherever you are, and he’ll have your heart. So bring the file and the food to that wooden shelter over there, early tomorrow morning, if you want to keep your heart, that is. Remember, you promised!”
I watched him turn and walk with difficulty across the marshes, the chain hanging clumsily around his leg. Then I ran home as fast as I could.

1．In springtime, it is common to see children play ________ everywhere. Children under 6 can travel ________ on public transport.
A．free; free B．free; freely C．freely; free D．freely; freely
【答案】C
【详解】句意：春天，随处可见孩子们自由自在地玩耍。6岁以下的儿童可以免费乘坐公共交通工具。
考查副词辨析。free免费地；freely自由自在地。根据“everywhere”可知，第一空指孩子们自由自在地玩耍，应用副词freely“自由自在地”修饰动词play；根据“on public transport”可知，第二空指免费乘坐公共交通工具，应用副词free“免费地”修饰动词travel。故选C。
2．Without ________ second thought, Peng Qinglin jumped into the river to save the struggling woman, which made him a torchbearer (火炬手) for ________ Asian Games in Hangzhou.
A．a; a B．a; the C．the; a D．the; the
【答案】B
【详解】句意：彭清林毫不犹豫地跳入河中，救下了挣扎中的女子，这让他成为了杭州亚运会的火炬手。
考查冠词的用法。不定冠词a，意为“一”，表示泛指，用于辅音音素前；定冠词the，意为“这个，那个”，表示特指。without a second thought意为“毫不犹豫”，所以第一空填a；根据“Asian Games in Hangzhou”可知，此处特指杭州的亚运会，应用定冠词the。故选B。
3．As for beginners, they can start ________ storybooks. Then short stories and novels will be helpful ________ enlarging their vocabulary.
A．by; in B．by; with C．with; in D．with; with
【答案】C
【详解】句意：至于初学者，可以从故事书开始。那么短篇小说和长篇小说将有助于扩大他们的词汇量。

4．Mr. Howard thought Jean ________ present her science project yesterday, but she ________ it up to now.
A．was going to; didn’t finish B．was going to; hasn’t finished
C．would; didn’t finish D．would; hasn’t finished
【答案】D
【详解】句意：霍华德先生原以为吉恩昨天会展示她的科学项目成果，但到目前为止她还没有完成。
考查动词时态。be going to含有“计划、准备”的意思，而will没有。根据“Mr. Howard thought”可知，宾语从句为霍德华先生的想法，而非吉恩的计划，所以排除选项A和B。又根据时间状语“up to now”直到现在，可知用现在完成时。故选D。
5．It does not matter how slowly you go ________ you do not stop moving forward.
A．as B．unless C．although D．as long as
【答案】D
【详解】句意：只要你不停止前进，你走得多慢都没关系。
考查从属连词词义辨析。as正当……的时候；unless除非；although尽管；as long as只要。分析可知，“you do not stop moving forward”是“It does not matter how slowly you go”的条件，所以用as long as引导条件状语从句。故选D。
6．—Where ________ Lewis ________
—Maybe he is in the stadium. He ________ for the annual school sports meeting these days.
A．did... go; has trained B．has... been going; has been training
C．has... gone; has trained D．has... gone; has been training
【答案】D
【详解】句意：——Lewis去哪里了？——也许他在体育场。这些天他一直在为一年一度的学校运动会训练。
考查动词时态和语态。根据“Maybe he is in the stadium.”可知，Lewis不在这里，所以应是问“他去哪里了”，对现在造成了影响，所以用has gone to“去了某地”；根据“these days”可知，动作从某一时间开始，一直持续到现在，或者可能仍然要继续下去，所以用现在完成进行时（have/has been doing），故选D。
7．________ work were waiting for us before the final performance in our school.
A．Amounts of B．Loads of C．A number of D．A lot of
【答案】A
【详解】句意：在我们学校的最后一场演出之前，还有许多工作在等着我们。
考查形容词短语。work工作，不可数名词；amounts of 大量的，常与不可数名词连用，谓语动词用复数；loads of 大量的，许多的，与可数名词连用，谓语动词用复数，与不可数名词连用时，谓语动词用单数；a number of 一些，常与可数名词复数连用，谓语动词用复数；a lot of 许多的，常与可数名词复数连用，谓语动词用复数，与不可数名词连用时，谓语动词用单数。故选A。
8．The whole family agreed ________ a picnic in the country next weekend. They will have a good time ________ outdoors with flowers and greenery around them.

【答案】B
【详解】句意：全家人同意下周末去乡下野餐。他们在周围有鲜花和绿色植物的户外吃饭将会很愉快。

9．Jenny ________ sleep well, but then she started to do yoga and it really helps.
A．used to B．didn’t use to C．was used to D．wasn’t used to
【答案】B
【详解】句意：Jenny过去睡不好觉，但后来她开始做瑜伽，这真的很有帮助。
考查动词短语和否定句。used to do过去常做某事；be used to do被用来做某事。根据“but then she started to do yoga and it really helps”可知，是说以前睡不好，用used to do的否定式didn’t use to do，故选B。
10．You ________ feel very tired after two hours’ waiting at the crossroads. Actually, you ________ stand all the time. You can find a place to rest.
A．can; mustn’t B．can; don’t have to C．must; don’t have to D．must; mustn’t

【详解】句意：在十字路口等了两个小时，你一定很累了。其实不用一直站着。你可以找个地方休息。
考查情态动词辨析。can可能； mustn’t不得；don’t have to不必；must一定。根据“after two hours’ waiting”可知，此处表示等了两个小时一定很累了，所以第一空填must；根据“You can find a place to rest.”可知，此处表示不必一直站着，所以第二空填don’t have to。故选C。
11．Though Molly found ________ hard to learn Chinese, she didn’t give up, because she found ________ Chinese TV series very interesting.

【答案】D
【详解】句意：尽管莫莉觉得学中文很难，但她没有放弃，因为她发现看中国电视剧很有趣。
考查代词it和非谓语动词。第一空。根据“Though Molly found…hard to learn Chinese”可知，真正宾语是动词不定式to learn Chinese，通常用it作形式宾语；第二空，根据“because she found…Chinese TV series very interesting.”可知，此处find后面缺少宾语，用动名词作宾语。故选D。
12．I don’t think ________ went on the spring outing to Zhonghua Gate. Some familiar faces weren’t seen in our team.
A．anyone B．someone C．no one D．everyone
【答案】D
【详解】句意：我认为不是所有人都去中华大门春游了。没有看到我们队里一些熟悉的面孔。

【答案】A
【详解】句意：——你注意到有什么奇怪的地方吗？——对不起，吸引我全部注意力的是那个惊人的展览。

“I can’t believe what I’m hearing!” I thought to myself. I thought Jeff was the last candidate (候选人) for president of the Students’ Union. My best friend Tony came to me and said, “I’m sorry. I really thought you should be 16 .”
Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the school dining hall. I offered him a(an) 17 “congratulations” and walked away to my usual table. To my 18 , Jeff put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, …er, er—I’m just wondering 19 you would…er…consider (考虑) coming to work on my team,” he said 20 . “You are really smart, and you would be a great partner.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling 21 .
“Well, if you change your mind, we are meeting tomorrow.”
All that right, I thought about the offer from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election (选举) process would give me a 22 to make important changes at our school. I decided to join them.
My first goal was to 23 an eye-catching advertisement. Within a few days, we completed a poster with Jeff’s pictures showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through the hallway 24 noticing Jeff’s smiling face.

With the information I had collected, Jeff had a conversation with the headmaster. Soon a volleyball team and a football team were 27 to add to our after-school programme.
Many students said, “It’ll be like attending a new school with Jeff as president of the Students’ Union.”
Hearing these words made my heart filled with a 28 of achievement (成就). I had wanted to become president of the Students’ Union to do things for students myself. Now I’ve achieved that and 29 more by working as a member of Jeff’s team. He’s become the most popular candidate and I am a big part of his success. The fact that it has made a change to other people’s lives is the real 30 . What a great feeling!

Today, cities are getting bigger and busier. They change a lot. How can we live more easily Smart cities(智慧城市) may help.
In 2010, the idea of smart cities came from the technology company IBM first. It says that by 2050, about 60% people around the world will live in smart cities. In fact, a smart city can be like a big and clever machine. For example, the rubbish bins “tell” workers when to clean. The buildings can “talk” to computers to help save energy. Different technologies make all these things come true. They work together to make a city smart.
Internet of thingsWhen you are close to your home, your smartwatch tells your home to turn on the lights. Internet of things can help to do this. Almost everything connects to the Internet. It’s like having lots of little smart helpers. Big data(数据)Big data does a lot for the city. It helps the city decide important things. For example, data about cars running in the city tells us about heavy traffic. In the weather reports, data can tell us if it is going to rain.
5G5G provides high-speed Internet. It makes the Internet of things possible. Ideally, the speed of 5G can be up to 10 GB per second. That can be 10 times faster than 4G. We can download(下载) an 8 GB film in just a few seconds. AIAI helps to do with the data. More importantly, it learns from the data and becomes smarter. AI can work as a postman, a tour guide, or even help to design cars and make people work in a safe way.

Pip meets a stranger
My first name was Philip, but when I was a small child, I could only manage to say Pip. So Pip was what everybody called me. I lived in a small village in Essex with my sister, who was over twenty years older than me, and married to Joe Gargery, the village blacksmith (铁匠). My parents had died when I was a baby, so I could not remember them at all, but quite often I used to visit the churchyard, about a mile from the village, to look at their names on their gravestones (墓碑).
My first memory is of sitting on a gravestone in that churchyard one cold, grey, December afternoon, looking out at the dark, flat, wild marshes divided by the black line of the River Thames, and listening to the rushing sound of the sea in the distance.
“Don’t say a word!” cried a terrible voice, as a man jumped up from among the graves and caught hold of me. “If you shout, I’ll cut your throat (喉咙)!” He was a big man, dressed all in grey, with an iron chain (铁链) on his leg. His clothes were wet and torn. He looked tired, and hungry, and very fierce (凶狠的). I had never been so scared in my whole life.
“Oh! Don’t cut my throat, sir!” I begged in fear.
“Tell me your name, boy! Quick!” he said, still holding me. “And show me where you live!”
“My name’s Pip, sir. And I live in the village over there.”
He picked me up and turned me upside down. Nothing fell out of my pocket except a piece of old bread. He ate it in two bites, like a dog, and put me back on the gravestone.
“So where are your father and mother ” he asked.
“There, sit,” I answered, pointing to their graves.
“What!” he cried, and was about to run, when he saw where I was pointing. “Oh!” he said. “I see. They’re dead. Well, who do you live with, if I let you live, which I haven’t decided yet ”
“With my sister, sir, wife of Joe Gargery, the Blacksmith.”
“Blacksmith, you say ” And he looked down at his leg. Then he held me by both arms and stared (注视) fiercely down into my eyes.
“Now look here. You bring me a file. You know what that is And you bring me some food. If you don’t, or if you tell anyone about me, I’ll cut your heart out.”
“I promise I’ll do it, sir,” I answered. I was badly scared and my whole body was shaking.
“You see,” he continued, smiling unpleasantly, “I travel with a young man, a friend of mine, who roasts boys’ hearts and eats them. He’ll find you, wherever you are, and he’ll have your heart. So bring the file and the food to that wooden shelter over there, early tomorrow morning, if you want to keep your heart, that is. Remember, you promised!”
I watched him turn and walk with difficulty across the marshes, the chain hanging clumsily around his leg. Then I ran home as fast as I could.

37．推理判断题。根据“My parents had died when I was a baby, so I could not remember them at all, but quite often I used to visit the churchyard, about a mile from the village, to look at their names on their gravestones (墓碑).”可知，父母在我还是婴儿的时候就去世了，所以我根本记不起他们了，但我经常去离村庄大约一英里的教堂墓地，看看他们墓碑上的名字，所以第一段告诉我们为什么故事发生在村庄附近的教堂幕地。故选D。
38．推理判断题。根据“‘What!’ he cried, and was about to run, when he saw where I was pointing.”可知，他刚开始想要跑走，可见他很害怕。故选B。
39．词义猜测题，根据“with an iron chain on his leg”以及“Now look here. You bring me a file.”可知，他的腿被铁链拴着，所以他想让Pip带一个可以切断铁链的工具，故划线部分意为“一种可以切断这个人的铁链的工具”。故选C。
40．推理判断题，根据“I promise I’ll do it, sir,”可知，Pip会按照那个人说的做。故选A。

64．句意：但从这次经历中，我明白了爱是生活棉被中的一根线。根据“from this e…”可知，this后接单数名词，指代前文父亲言行带来的感悟，experience意为“经历”，名词。故填(e)xperience。
65．句意：爱在内里，让生活坚固而温暖。根据“strong and w…”可知，与strong并列作补语，需形容词warm，体现爱的温暖特质。故填(w)arm。

At weekends, I often do some reading. Classical Chinese novels are my favourite. I spend as much time as I can reading them. I think reading can not only improve my knowledge but also open up a whole new world to me.
And surfing on the Internet is a pleasant way to relax myself. I can do a lot of activities online, such as doing word processing and sending emails to my friends.
Moreover, it’s important for me to travel around the country. Travelling can help me enjoy the beauty of nature and learn better about our country. Usually, my father drives me to some places of interest during holidays.
I often work as a volunteer . For example, I spend spare time protecting the environment. I often clean up the local park on weekends. Once, I wrote to a factory to stop pouring waste into the river.
