Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时15′)
A
[2016·河南开封检测]Johnny
was
three
when
he
ran
away
from
home
for
the
first
time.
Somebody
left
the
garden
gate
open.
Johnny
wandered
out,
crossed
some
fields
and
two
hours
later,
reached
the
next
village.
He
could
only
give
his
name
and
address.
By
the
time
he
was
seven,
Johnny
used
to
disappear
from
home
two
to
three
times
a
year.
Sometimes
he
covered
quite
long
distances
on
foot.
Sometimes
he
got
on
a
bus
or
even
a
train,
and
simply
sat
there
until
someone
asked
for
his
ticket.
Generally
the
police
brought
him
home.
“Why
do
you
do
it？”
they
used
to
ask.
“I
just
want
to
see
new
places
in
the
world,
which
makes
me
very
happy.”
Johnny
told
them.
Johnny
continued
to
“see
new
places”
although
everyone
tried
to
stop
him.
His
parents
used
to
watch
him
closely,
and
so
did
his
teachers；
but
sooner
or
later
Johnny
managed
to
slip
away.
Sometimes
he
travelled
hundreds
of
miles
before
anyone
discovered
him.
It
is
hardly
surprising
that
Johnny
managed
to
board
a
plane
with
lots
of
goods.
He
was
only
twelve
at
that
time.
A
few
hours
later,
Johnny
found
himself
in
Cairo.
How
did
he
get
on
board
No
one
knows.
According
to
Johnny
himself,
it
was
easy:
he
just
went
into
the
airport,
walked
along
some
passages
and
got
on
board
the
nearest
plane.
In
spite
of
all
this,
Johnny
did
well
at
school.
He
enjoyed
mathematics
and
languages
and,
perhaps
not
surprisingly,
he
was
especially
good
at
geography.
“What
do
you
want
to
be
when
you
grow
up？”
his
teachers
asked
him.
“I
want
to
be
an
explorer！”
he
answered.
“But
it's
difficult
to
become
an
explorer
in
this
modern
age，”
they
tried
to
tell
him.But
it
was
no
use:
Johnny
knew
what
he
wanted!
Just
before
he
left
school,
Johnny
saw
a
notice
in
a
daily
paper.
A
long
journey
was
about
to
go
to
Brazil
to
travel
up
the
Amazon
River.
There
were
jobs
for
three
young
people
“willing
to
work
hard
and
with
a
sense
of
adventure”.
Johnny
applied，
and
two
months
later,
he
was
on
his
way
to
Brazil.

B
[2016·山东师大附中模拟]Here
is
an
astonishing
and
significant
fact：Mental
work
alone
can't
make
us
tired.It
sounds
absurd.
But
a
few
years
ago,
scientists
tried
to
find
out
how
long
the
human
brain
could
labor
without
reaching
a
stage
of
fatigue
(疲劳).
To
the
amazement
of
these
scientists,
they
discovered
that
blood
passing
through
the
brain,
when
it
is
active,
shows
no
fatigue
at
all!
If
we
took
a
drop
of
blood
from
a
day
laborer,
we
would
find
it
full
of
fatigue
toxins
at
and
fatigue
products.But
if
we
took
blood
from
the
brain
of
an
Albert
Einstein,
it
would
show
no
fatigue
toxins
at
the
end
of
the
day.
So
far
as
the
brain
is
concerned，
it
can
work
as
well
and
swiftly
at
the
end
of
eight
or
even
twelve
hours
of
effort
as
at
the
beginning.The
brain
is
totally
tireless.So
what
makes
us
tired
Some
scientists
declare
that
most
of
our
fatigue
comes
from
our
mental
and
emotional
attitudes.
One
of
EnglanD
s
most
outstanding
scientists,
J．A.Hadfield,
says,
“The
greater
part
of
the
fatigue
from
which
we
suffer
is
of
mental
origin.In
fact,
fatigue
of
purely
physical
origin
is
rare.”
Dr
Brill,
a
famous
American
scientist,
goes
even
further.
He
declares,
“One
hundred
percent
of
the
fatigue
of
sitting
worker
in
good
health
is
due
to
emotional
problems.”
What
kinds
of
emotions
make
sitting
workers
tired
Joy
Satisfaction？
No!
A
feeling
of
being
bored,
anger,
anxiety,
tenseness,
worry,
a
feeling
of
not
being
appreciated—those
are
the
emotions
that
tire
sitting
workers.
Hard
work
by
itself
seldom
causes
fatigue.
We
get
tired
because
our
emotions
produce
nervousness
in
the
body.
本文介绍的是一项新的研究成果：单独的脑力劳动不会使我们感到疲倦，真正让我们感到累的原因是我们的情绪。
5．What
surprised
the
scientists
a
few
years
ago
A．Fatigue
toxins
could
hardly
be
found
in
a
laborer's
blood.
B．Albert
Einstein
didn't
feel
worn
after
a
day's
work.
C．The
brain
could
work
for
many
hours
without
fatigue.
D．A
mental
worker's
blood
was
filled
with
fatigue
toxins.
答案：C　细节理解题。根据第一段“To
the
amazement
of
these
scientists,
they
discovered
that...when
it
is
active,
shows
no
fatigue
at
all！”可知。
6．According
to
the
author,
which
of
the
following
can
make
sitting
workers
tired
A．Challenging
mental
work.
B.Unpleasant
emotions.
C．Endless
tasks.
D.Physical
labor.
答案：B　细节理解题。根据第三段“Some
scientists
declare
that
most
of
our
fatigue
comes
from
our
mental
and
emotional
attitudes.”以及最后一段可知。
7．What's
the
author's
attitude
towards
the
scientists'
idea
A．He
agrees
with
them.
B.He
doubts
them.
C．He
argues
against
them.
D.He
hesitates
to
accept
them.
答案：A　推理判断题。根据最后一段，并结合第三段内容，可知作者与科学家的观点一致。
8．We
can
infer
from
the
passage
that
in
order
to
stay
energetic,
sitting
workers
need
to
.
A．have
some
good
food
B.enjoy
their
work
C．exercise
regularly
D．discover
fatigue
toxins
答案：B　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知“那种厌倦，愤怒，焦虑，紧张，担忧不被欣赏的情绪会让sitting
workers疲倦”，可推知。

意义重大的
2.totally
adv.
完全地；全部地
3．declare

Ⅱ.七选五(建议用时7′)
根据短文内容，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。
[2016·浙江温州八中测试]Everyone
has
had
to
deal
with
a
friend
who
says,
“Can
I
borrow
some
money
I
promise
I'll
pay
you
back.
”
1
，
but
here
are
some
st
that
will
help
you
get
back
the
money
you've
lent
and
keep
your
friendship
complete.
●Decide
if
you
want
to
lend
the
money.
It
doesn't
mean
that
you
have
to
say
yes
when
your
friend
is
asking
for
a
loan.
Think
carefully
about
whether
this
is
something
you
feel
comfortable
doing.
You
may
want
to
consider:
How
is
your
friend
with
money
2

Why
does
your
friend
need
the
money
●
3
.
You
might
settle
for
a
verbal
(口头的)
agreement
since
it's
with
someone
you're
close
to,
but
putting
the
loan
in
writing
will
enable
both
of
you
to
treat
it
as
a
business
arrangement.
The
agreement
should
spell
out
the
terms,
including
any
interest
and
the
punishment
for
late
payments.
●State
your
repayment
terms
clearly.
Decide
how
much
and
how
often
payments
are
to
be
made,
and
then
keep
to
that
schedule.

.
It's
better
to
figure
out
what
you
will
do
if
your
friend
can't
make
a
payment
ahead
of
time
than
trying
to
work
it
out
when
it
happens.
●Follow
up
in
a
businesslike
way.
Make
a
note
in
your
calendar
to
remind
your
friend
a
few
days
ahead
of
the
due
date.
Wait
to
see
if
your
friend
pays
on
the
due
date
without
the
reminder.
If
not,
tell
him
or
her
when
you
might
expect
payment,
and
let
him
or
her
explain
the
delay.
5
，
set
a
new
date
for
the
payment.
A．There
is
no
way
B．Once
you've
heard
the
explanation
C．Discuss
what
happens
if
a
payment
is
missed
D．How
much
does
your
friend
want
E．Whether
you
decide
to
lend
the
money
is
up
to
you
F．You
could
lose
your
money
and
relationship
G．Put
everything
in
writing
本文讲述的是如何帮你要回借出的钱财，并保持良好的友好关系。
1．E　根据下文“but
here
are
some
st
that
will
help
you
get
back
the
money”中but为关键信息。
2．D　根据上下文均是特殊疑问句，可知此处应填D。
3．G　根据下文“You
might
settle
for
a
verbal
agreement...,
but
putting
the
loan
in
writing...”可知。
4．C　根据下文“...if
your
friend
can't
make
a
payment...”可知。
5．B　根据上文“...and
let
him
or
her
explain
the
delay.”可知答案。
Ⅲ.语法填空(建议用时8′)
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
[2016·揭阳一中测试]In
my
primary
school
years,
there
was
a
little
girl
in
the
class
who
worked
very
hard
but
somehow
could
never
do
satisfactorily
in
her
lessons.
The
teacher
asked
me
to
help
her,
and
1
was
obvious
that
she
expected
a
lot
from
me.
But
as
a
young
boy,
restless,
thoughtless,
I
always
tried
to
avoid
her
so
as
to
get
more
time
to
enjoy
2
(I).
One
day
before
the
final
exam,
she
came
up
to
me
and
said,
“Could
you
please
explain
this
3
me
I
want
very
much
to
do
4
(well)
this
time.”
I
started
explaining,
and
finished
in
a
hurry.
5
(pretend)
not
to
notice
her
still confused
eyes,
I
ran
off
quickly.
Not
surprisingly,
she
again
6
(do)
very
badly
in
the
exam.
And
two
months
later,
at
the
beginning
of
the
new
semester,
word
came
of
her
7
(die).
No
one
knew
about
the
little
task
I
failed
8
(fulfill),
but
I
couldn't
forgive
myself.
I
simply
couldn't
forget
her
eyes,
9
seem
to
be
asking,
“Why
didn't
you
do
a
little
more
to
help
me？”
It
was
the
very
starting
point
of
my
life,
for
I
began
to
understand
the
word
“responsibility”
and
to
learn
to
always
do
my
duties
10
(faithful)
and
devotedly.

本文讲述的是作者小时候帮一位勤奋用功但成绩不好的同学的经历，使他意识到“责任”的重要性。
1．it　考查it的用法。根据句式结构可知，此句应为形式主语，that从句是主语从句。
2．myself　考查代词用法。“enjoy
oneself”意为玩得愉快。
3．to　考查固定短语：“explain
sth.
to
sb.”向某人解释某物。
4．better　考查形容词的等级。根据语境这次小女孩要做的更好(比以前)。
5．Pretending　考查非谓语动词。pretend与句子主语I之间为主动关系，且句子中无连词，故用pretending作状语。
6．did　考查动词时态。根据全文语境可知。
7．death　考查词性转换。该空前为形容词性物主代词，故应填名词。
8．to
fulfill　考查fail用法。fail
to
do
sth.意为“没有做成……”。
9．which　考查非限制性定语从句。从句中无主语，且先行词指事。
10．faithfully　考查词性转换。根据“and”后的“devotedly”可知，该空应填副词。
Ⅳ.书面表达(建议用时20′)
[2016·天水一中检测]为了帮助中学生健康成长，某中学英文报开辟了“HEART TO HEART”专栏。假设你是该栏目的编辑Jamie，收到一封署名为Worried的求助信。信中该同学向你诉说了自己的困扰：近日容易发脾气，使正常的学习和生活受到了影响。请用英文给该同学写一封回信。
内容要点如下：
1．表示理解并给予安慰；
2．提出建议并说明理由。
注意：1.词数120左右；
2．信中不能出现与本人相关的信息；
3．信的开头与结尾已为你拟好，不计入总词数。
参考词汇：temper
n.
脾气，情绪
Hi
Worried，
I'm
sorry
to
know
that
you're
having
such
a
bad
time
at
the
moment.
Yours，
Jamie
One
possible
version：
Hi
Worried，
I'm
sorry
to
know
that
you're
having
such
a
bad
time
at
the
moment.The
truth
is
that
everyone
will
have
one
of
those
periods
when
things
seem
to
be
going
wrong,
so
you
don't
have
to
worry
so
much.
The
important
thing
is
to
learn
to
control
your
temper
so
that
you
may
not
do
or
say
anything
you'll
regret.
Here
are
three
useful
tips：
First,
talk
to
someone
you
trust
about
how
you
feel.
This
is
a
good
way
of
letting
your
anger
out
without
hurting
others
or
yourself.
Second,
go
outdoors
and
play
team
games
with
your
friends
as
physical
exercise
is
an
effective
way
to
get
rid
of
anger.
And
third,
remain
optimistic
about
your
future.
Such
a
positive
attitude
towards
life
can
be
helpful
in
lifting
your
spirits.
I
hope
you'll
soon
feel
calmer
and
carry
on
as
normal.
Yours，
Jamie
