A
Trees
are
useful
to
man
in
three
important
ways:
they
give
him
wood
and
other
useful
things,
they
give
him
cool
places,
and
they
help
to
stop
drought
and
flood.
Unluckily,
in
many
parts
of
the
world,
man
has
not
found
that
the
third
of
these
points
is
the
most
important.
Man
wants
to
make
money
from
trees,
so
he
has
cut
them
down
in
large
numbers,
only
to
find
that
without
them
he
has
lost
the
best
friends
he
had.
And
also,
he
is
usually
too
careless
to
plant
and
look
after
new
trees.
So
the
forests
slowly
disappear.
This
does
not
only
mean
that
man
will
have
fewer
trees.
The
results
are
even
worse:
for
where
there
are
trees,
their
roots
break
up
soil,
make
the
rain
in,
and
also
bind
the
soil,
thus
stopping
it
from
being
washed
away
easily;
but
where
there
are
no
trees,
the
rain
falls
on
hard
ground
and
flows
away,
causing
floods
and
carrying
away
the
rich
top-soil.
When
all
the
top soil
is
gone,
nothing
is
left
but
useless
desert.
1.
The
most
important
point
of
trees
to
man
is
that
________.
A.
they
help
him
to
make
money
B.
they
give
him
cool
places
C.
they
give
him
wood
and
other
things
D.
they
help
him
to
stop
drought
and
floods
2.
In
many
places
forests
slowly
disappear
because
________.
A.
many
trees
have
been
cut
down
by
man
B.
new
trees
are
not
well
looked
after
C.
man
has
not
paid
enough
attention
to
planting
trees
D.
all
the
above
3.
Land
becomes
desert
after
all
trees
are
cut
down
because
________.
A.
roots
of
trees
break
up
the
soil
B.
there
are
too
many
rainfalls
to
make
it
C.
strong
winds
bring
a
lot
of
sand
D.
no
trees
keep
the
rain
and
protect
the
top soil.
4.
Which
title
best
fits
the
passage
A.
Trees
and
Man
B.
The
Function
of
Tree
Wood
C.
What
do
People
do
with
Trees
D.
The
Usage
of
Tree
Roots
B
The
New
Year
is
a
time
for
celebrations
for
almost
everyone
around
the
world.
In
Britain,
people
go
to
pubs
and
night clubs
to
dance
the
old
year
away,
and
to
welcome
in
the
new
one
at
midnight.
In
recent
years,
street
parties
have
become
more
popular.
Thousands
of
people
gather
in
squares,
main
streets
or
on
the
river
banks
to
listen
to
bands
playing
and
to
see
fireworks
displays.
For
people
who
stay
at
home,
most
are
attracted
by
the
special,
live
New
Year
shows
on
TV.
They
are
waiting
for
the
countdown,
along
with
the
presenters,
from
10
to
1
as
the
last
seconds
of
the
old
year
tick
away
and
the
bells
of
the
New
Year
are
rung.
In
Scotland
people
visit
their
neighbors
and
drink,
dance
on
New
Year's
Eve.
If
you're
invited
to
a
Scottish
home
that
night,
it's
important
to
know
what
to
bring
with
you:
a
lump
of
coal,
some
shortbread
and
some
whisky.
The
coal
shows
warmth,
so
you're
wishing
that
the
people
you
visit
will
have
enough
heat
in
the
coming
year.
The
shortbread
represents
food,
so
you're
hoping
that
the
people
will
have
enough
to
eat
in
the
New
Year.
Some
Scots
call
whisky
“the
water
of
life”,
so
when
you
hand
over
your
bottle
to
your
hosts,
it
means
you
want
them
to
have
enough
to
drink
over
the
next
12
months.
And
there's
one
more
key
task
you
still
have
to
perform
if
you
can.
The
first
person
to
knock
on
a
neighbor's
door
is
supposed
to
be
a
tall,
dark
and
handsome
man
who
will
bring
good
luck
to
the
household.
But
what
if
that's
not
you
Well,
don't
ring
the
bell
just
yet.
Wait
a
while
and
the
right
person
is
sure
to
turn
up
soon!
5.What
do
visitors
mean
by
taking
things
to
a
Scottish
home
on
New
Year's
Eve
A.
Sharing
good
food
and
warmth.
B.
Helping
those
poor
families.
C.
Sending
best
wishes
for
the
family.
D.
Showing
richness
and
generosity.
6.The
tall,
dark
and
handsome
man
firstly
knocking
on
the
neighbor's
door
is
believed
to
bring________.
A.
a
lump
of
coal    
B.
some
shortbread
C.
a
bottle
of
whisky
D.
good
luck
7.People
staying
at
home
till
midnight
on
New
Year's
Eve
are
mostly________.
A.
enjoying
the
live
TV
programs
B.
talking
with
the
presenters
C.
learning
to
countdown
numbers
D.
ringing
the
bells
for
New
Year
8.We
can
infer
from
the
passage
that________.
A.
British
people
hate
to
think
of
the
old
year
and
wish
to
dance
it
away
quickly
B.
street
concerts
have
become
more
popular
on
the
midnight
of
the
New
Year
Eve
C.
British
people
will
fire
some
fireworks
in
public
places
to
celebrate
the
New
Year
D.

of

to

Ⅱ.短文改错
Today
I
was
having
a
PE
lesson
while
I
fell
down
and
hurted
my
foot.
I
was
in
great
pain
at
that
moment,
but
I
tried
to
act
as
if
nothing
happened
until
the
class
was
over.
Though
I
had
difficulty
walk
back
to
my
classroom,
but
I
still
didn't
tell
anyone
and
even
refused
the
offer
of
help
from
my
classmates.
As
the
result,
the
hurt
on
my
foot
became
worse.
Now
I
know
I
am
wrong.
We
can
tell
others
our
need
for
help
and

Someday

How
do
you
meet
new
people,
make
new
friends,
or
find
out
about
the
latest
bands
Here
in
the
UK
young
people
have
traditionally
done
their
socializing
(社交)
in
bars
and
clubs.
However,
there
is
a
new
generation
growing
up
that
finds
it
easier
to
manage
their
social
lives
on
the
net,
using
free
websites
like
MySpace,
Bebo
or
MSN
Spaces.
The
most
successful
social
networking
website
in
the
UK
is
.
As
of
May
2008,
MySpace
is
the
world's
fourth
most
popular
English language
website,
attracting
almost
3
million
visitors
per
month.
MySpace
claims
(声称)
to
have
95
million
members
with
500,000
new
members
joining
the
community
each
week.
So
how
has
it
become
so
successful
Perhaps
its
secret
is
in
its
simplicity.
Each
new
member
can
build
their
own
page
simply-uploading
(上传)
photos,
videos
and
MP3
files.
Then
they
describe
themselves,
listing
their
likes,
dislikes,
favorite
bands,
etc.
It's
an
easy
way
to
hook_up
with
people
who
share
your
interests.
While
socializing
is
the
key
to
MySpace's
success,
love
of
music
is
at
the
heart
of
the
community.
Indeed,
most
aspiring
musicians
in
the
UK
upload
their
songs
to
the
site,
and
with
good
reason:
unsigned
mists,
Arctic
Monkeys
and
Lilly
Allen
created
such
an
attraction
on
the
site
that
they
were
offered
recording
contracts
and
scored
number
one
hits.
Here
at
Learning
English
we
feel
that
social
network
sites
could
be
a
great
place
to
practice
your
English.
Why
not
give
it
a
try
You
can
tell
us
about
your
experience
by
filling
in
the
new
comments
form
at
the
top
of
the
screen.

many

in
MySpace
every
month
A.
3
million.

million.
D.

the

Ⅱ.
七选五
It
may
help
you
to
know
that
there
is
no
such
thing
as
a
perfect
speech.
At
some
point
in
every
speech,
every
speaker
says
something
that
is
not
understood
exactly
as
he
has
planned.
___1___
Why
Because
the
listeners
do
not
know
what
the
speaker
plans
to
say.
___2___
If
you
lose
your
place
for
a
moment,
wrongly
change
the
order
of
a
couple
of
sentences,
or
forget
to
pause
at
a
certain
point,
no
one
will
be
any
the
wiser.
When
such
moments
occur,
don't
worry
about
them.
Just
continue
as
if
nothing
happened.
Even
if
you
do
make
an
obvious
mistake
during
a
speech,
that
don't
really
matter.
If
you
have
ever
listened
to
Martin
Luther
King's
famous
speech-“I
have
a
dream”,
you
may
notice
that
he
stumble(结巴)
his
words
twice
during
the
speech.
___3___
Why
Because
you
were
fixing
your
attention
on
its
message
rather
than
on
his
way
of
speech making.
People
care
a
lot
about
making
mistakes
in
a
speech
because
they
regard
speech making
as
a
kind
of
performance
rather
than
as
an
act
of
communication.
They
feel
the
listeners
are
like
judges
in
an
ice skating
competition.
But,
in
fact,
the
listeners
are
not
looking
for
a
perfect
performer.
They
are
looking
for
a
well thought out
speech
that
expresses
the
speaker's
ideas
clearly
and
directly.
___4___
As
you
work
on
your
speech,
don't
worry
about
being
imperfect.
___5___
A.
Everyone
can
give
an
excellent
speech.
B.
They
hear
only
what
the
speaker
does
say.
C.
Most
likely,
however,
you
don't
remember.
D.
People
will
ignore
your
mistakes
in
your
speech.
E.
Fortunately,
the
moments
are
usually
not
obvious
to
the
listeners.
F.
Once
you
free
your
mind,
you
will
find
you
give
your
speech
more
freely.
G.
Sometimes
one
or
two
mistakes
can
increase
a
speaker's
attractiveness
by
making
him
more
human.

Ⅰ阅读理解
本文借国外交友方式的变化引出话题,笔锋一转,重点介绍聚友网。
1.
D 细节理解题。第三段第三句说每周有500,000人加入聚友网,即每月有二百万。
2.
C 细节理解题。倒数第二段提到音乐,但没有说可不可以得到音乐歌手的签名,所以选C。
3.
A 词义猜测题。本段讲述了人们如何制造网页,描述个人爱好和信息,从而和兴趣相同的人进行交流。所以选A。
4.
B 推理判断题。从文章内容尤其是最后一段可以推断,作者的写作目的是推荐,所以选B。
Ⅱ七选五
世界上没有完美无缺的演讲。演讲的时候不要担心不完美,解放思想,你就会发现你的演讲将更加顺畅自如。
1.
E 后面两句中的一问一答提到造成该空所提到的现象的原因是听众并不知道演讲者打算说什么。正因为如此,这些时刻不能完全被听众领会的点对听众来说并不明显。同时,E项中的Fortunately与上一句中提到的演讲过程中的失误关系密切。
2.
B 听众不能明显察觉演讲者说错的原因是听众不知道演讲者准备说什么,他们只是听演讲者正在说什么。该空与上一句共同解释了原因。
3.
C 后面的两句中提到原因在于听众的注意力在演讲的内容上,而不在表达方式上。正因为如此,虽然Martin
Luther
King在演讲时有些结巴,但听众很可能不记得。
4.
G 上一句中提到观众不是在寻找一个完美的演讲者,而是在寻找一个能清晰直观表达演讲者意图的演讲,可见此处强调人性化的因素。G项(有时候一两处错误更能吸引听众的注意力,让人觉得演讲者更加平易近人)符合此处的语境。
5.
F 最后一段总结全文。上一句中提到演讲的时候不要担心不完美。F项(一旦解放思想,你会发现你的演讲更加顺畅自如了)是对上一句的延伸。
Ⅲ书面表达
One
possible
version:
Since
we
entered
Grade
Three,
we
students
feel
greater
stress.
Recently,
we
had
a
discussion
about
how
we
spend
our
weekends.
We
have
different
opinions.
Some
of
us
say
we
should
spend
our
weekends
on
our
lessons
because
examinations
are
more
and
more
frequent.
If
we
work
hard
at
our
lessons,
we
are
expected
to
get
good
scores
in
the
exams.
However,
others
argue
that
we
should
try
to
relax
ourselves
at
weekends
because
we
are
tired
after
studying
hard
for
a
week.
It
is
obvious
that
a
good
rest
makes
us
feel
refreshed.
As
far
as
I
am
concerned,
it
is
necessary
for
us
to
relax
at
weekends.
But
working
on
our
lessons
is
equally
important.Unit

It's
said
that
a
giant
rock
was
located
in
the
North
Sea
but
once
many
boats
and
ships
__1__
(strike)
it
and
sank.
About
a
century
years
ago,
a
kind
and
imaginative
minister
came
up
with
an
idea
to
have
a
buoy
(浮标)
__2__
(fasten)
to
the
rock.
On
the
top
of
the

was
placed
a
bell,
__3__
would
ring
whenever
any
ships
got
closer.
When
hearing
the
bell
__4__(ring),
sailors
knew
where
the
rock
was
and
stayed
safe.
One
day,
a
sea
robber
Rover
happened
to
sail
not
far
away
from
the
rock.
Seeing
__5__
buoy
floating
in
the
water,
he
decided
to
play
a
trick.
Soon
his
crew
broke
the
chain
that
held
the
buoy,
let
the
bell
go
into
the
water
and
then
sailed
away.
In
the
following
weeks,
they
robbed
many
__6__
ships
around
the
seas
and
filled
the
ship
__7__
a
great
variety
of
treasures.
Unfortunately,
when
returning,
they
themselves
had
no
idea
how
to
get
away
from
the
terrible
rock
without
the
ring.
The
ship
was
moving
__8__
(swift)
in
the

I
love
camping.
It
is
my
favoritest
way
to
spend
the
summer
vacation.
Last
year,
my
families
and
I
went
camping
in
the
countryside.
It
was
one
of
the
excited
experiences
I
have
ever
had.
We
slept
in
a
tent
and
took
a
long
walk
every
day.
We
cooked
over
a
fire
and
the
food
always
tasted
wonderfully.
For
a

At
night,
I
heard

and

cost

camp.

and
enjoy
its
beauty.

up“开始从事,占据”。
17.B 根据下文的“From

A
recent
survey
of
teachers
found
that
an
unhealthy
passion
with
celebrity
culture
is
having
a
negative
impact
on
British
students'
studies
and
it
discovered
that
celebrity
couple,
the
Beckhams,
are
the
favorites
among
most
students.
Many
students
are
ignoring
building
their
own
careers
to
seek
a
chance
at
fame
instead,
the
Association
of
Teachers
and
Lecturers
(ATL)
survey
found.
Almost
two thirds
of
teachers
said
sports
stars
were
the
type
of
celebrity
many
pupils
wanted
to
follow
while
more
than
half
of
the
students
wanted
to
be
pop
stars.
The
survey
said
the
celebrities
that
students
aspired
to
mostly
were
David
and
Victoria
Beckham
who
live
in
Los
Angeles
now.
Soccer
player
Beckham
is
on
the
top
of
the
survey
while
in
second
place,
with
almost
a
third
of
the
survey's
votes,
was
his
33 year old
pop
star
wife.
Almost
half
of
the
300
teachers
surveyed
said
pupils
tried
to
look
like
or
behave
like
the
celebrities
they
most
admired,
with
some
girls
even
dressing
“unsuitably”.
“We
are
not
surprised
about
the
influence
of
celebrity
culture
in
schools

it
reflects
the
current
media
passion
with
celebrities
and
the
effect
of
celebrity
culture
on
society
as
a
whole,”
ATL
general
secretary
Mary
Bousted
said
in
a
statement.
“Celebrities
can
have
a
positive
effect
on
pupils.
They
can
raise
pupils'
aspirations
and
desires
for
the
future.
However,
celebrity
culture
can
spread
the
idea
that
celebrity
status
is
the
greatest
achievement
and
reinforce
the
belief
that
other
career
choices
are
not
as
valuable,”
said
one
primary
school
teacher.
“Too
many
of
the
pupils
believe
that
school
success
is
unnecessary,
because
they
will
be
able
to
get
fame
and
fortune
quite
easily
through
a
reality
TV
show.”

假如你是育才中学的学生李华,昨天你在英语课上做数学作业被英语老师Miss
Cheng发现了,你的数学书被英语老师收走了。请用英语给英语老师写一封道歉信,内容应包括以下要点:
1.向老师道歉;
2.解释上课为什么做数学作业;
3.提出自己的请求并作出保证。
注意:1.词数120左右,可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;
2.信的开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。

One
possible
version:
Dear
Miss
Cheng,
I
sincerely
apologize
to
you
for
doing
maths
homework
in
your
class.
I
would
appreciate
it
if
you
can
forgive
me.
Having
been
caught
doing
other
things
in
your
class,
I
know
any
excuse
may
be
meaningless.
However,
I
did
so
because
my
mother
happened
to
fall
ill
yesterday
and
I
had
to
send
her
to
hospital
and
look
after
her
by
myself,
for
my
father
is
a
migrant
worker
working
far
away.
As
you
know,
the
next
class
would
be
maths.
If
I
couldn't
finish
my
maths
homework
before
it,
I
would
be
severely
punished.
Anyway,
doing
other
things
in
class
is
not
acceptable
to
any
teacher.
I
swear
it
will
never
happen
again.
But
I
do
need
my
maths
book
back.
Will
you
be
so
kind
as
to
give
it
back
to
me
Thanks
a
lot!
Best
wishes!
Yours
sincerely,
Li
Hua
答案
Ⅰ.
阅读理解
本文讲述了英国学生追星的负面影响。
1.
B 主旨大意题。通览全篇可知,本文讲述了英国学生追星的情况,他们陷入了一个价值观的误区:学业的成就算不得成功,成为明星才算成功。
2.
B 
细节理解题。由第三段中“Soccer
player
Beckham
is
on
the
top
of
the
survey
while
in
second
place,
with
almost
a
third
of
the
survey's
votes,
was
his
33 year old
pop
star
wife.”可知B项正确。
3.
C 推理判断题。作者列举追星学生模仿明星行为习惯或着装的目的是为了说明追星对他们的行为和价值观造成的负面影响。
4.
C 主旨大意题。用排除法可知A、B、D三项概括得较为片面,只有C项全面,即:追星带给学生的负面影响。
Ⅱ.
完形填空
本文讲述了一个小男孩在south
Florida游泳的时候被一条短吻鳄鱼咬中后,他的母亲与短吻鳄鱼斗争并最终获救的故事。
1.
B 上文提到游泳,所以应该是跳入水中,故选B项dived。D项有较大干扰性,come
into意思是“走进”,联系in
a
hurry我们知道,他是“潜入”,而不是“进入”。
2.
D 下句中提到短吻鳄游向岸边(shore),可推测孩子游向湖心,故选D项middle。A项有较大的干扰性,联系空后的内容我们知道,他游到了鳄鱼存在的深水区,而不是水底。
3.
A 上文提到湖在孩子家的后面,可知妈妈正在屋内从窗户里向外张望,故选A项looking
out
of。break
into“破门而入”;take
care
of“照料;照顾”。
4.
A 下文提到短吻鳄咬住了孩子,可知,他们离得越来越近,故选A项closer。
5.
C 从常识可知,当自己的孩子有危险时,作为妈妈应该大声喊他,以示警告,故选C项yelling。
6.
D 为了让孩子听到喊叫,妈妈应尽量声音大些,故选D项loudly。A项有较大干扰性,母亲喊叫的目的是唤起儿子的注意,因此可排除A项。
7.
B make
a
turn表示“转弯”。其他选项有一定干扰性,但不与turn构成搭配。
8.
A 下文提到短吻鳄已经追上了,所以是太迟了,故选A项late。
9.
C 下文提到孩子的双臂有很多伤疤,可知,妈妈为了救孩子,紧紧地抓住了孩子的双臂,故选C项seized。D项有一定干扰性,touch意思是“触摸”,因此可以排除。
10.
A 下文提到孩子的双腿是短吻鳄咬的,可知,短吻鳄咬住了孩子的腿,故选A项legs。
11.
D 下文提到有人帮助了妈妈,可知短吻鳄比她更有劲,故选D项stronger。B、C
都有一定干扰性,联系上下文我们知道,作者在将母亲与鳄鱼进行力量上的对比。
12.
D 由下文的truck可知,此人是开车经过。
13.
C 孩子被短吻鳄咬伤,送入医院及时治疗而得以幸存,故选C项survived最佳。D项有较大干扰性,但注意cure是及物动词,要用被动语态。
14.
A 短吻鳄咬人,应该是攻击attack,故选A项。
15.
B 从上文可知,妈妈为了救孩子,紧紧地抓住了孩子的双臂,应是在孩子的臂上留下了抓痕。A项有一定干扰性,mark指“符号”,因此可排除。
16.
A 从上下文可知,妈妈使的劲很大,以至于手指甲抓破了孩子的双臂。词组dig...into
sth.
意为“插入、戳进”,符合文意。
17.
B 由上文可知,妈妈抓住了孩子,故选B项。hang
on
to意为“抓住”,与上文的seize和catch相对应。A、C两项有一定干扰性,break
away
from“摆脱”;look
out
for“当心,小心”,均不符语境。
18.
D 由上文reporter可知,记者在采访孩子。A项有一定干扰性,meet指“遇到”,联系空后的asked可排除。
19.
C 由于妈妈的爱使孩子获救,孩子为妈妈的行为感到骄傲。A项有一定干扰性,confidence意思是“信心”,联系后文“I
have
great
scars
on
my
arms,
too”可排除A项。
20.
A 孩子给记者看了腿上的鳄鱼的咬伤,但是使他骄傲的是胳膊上的妈妈的抓伤。所以此处表示转折,故选A项but。
Ⅲ.
语法填空
本文主要介绍了一个17岁的女孩Jean的生活。
1.
called 过去分词作定语,相当于which
is
called。
2.
how “疑问词+to
do”结构表示方式、方法,故用how(怎样,如何)。
3.
that/which 引导定语从句并在从句中作主语。
4.
a a
sports
event泛指“某一项运动”。
5.
Like 表示“像……一样”,用介词like。
6.
share 表示“共用”。
7.
or 否定的并列要用or。
8.
Neither/Nor 表“某人也一样不”,用neither或nor,句式用部分倒装。
9.
are
not
allowed 指“不被允许”。
10.
dangerous 要用形容词作表语。
