Ⅱ. 单项选择(10分)
1. Every day I spend two hours　　　my homework. 　
A. finish doing　　　　 B. finishing to do
C. to finish to do D. finishing doing
【解析】选D。考查固定结构。spend. . . (in)doing sth. 花费……做某事; finish doing sth. 完成做某事。句意: 每天我花费两个小时完成作业。故选D。
2. —What a nice watch! When　　　you　　　it?
—Three days ago. 　
A. do; buy　　　　　 B. did; buy
C. were; buy　　　　 D. did; bought
【解析】选B。考查动词的时态。由句中的答语three days ago(三天前), 可知问句中的动词要用一般过去时。助动词用did, 其后要用动词原形buy。故选B。
3. —I noticed Ann　　　a green dress at the school meeting.
—I think she looks better　　　red.
A. dressed; in　　　　 B. put on; on
C. wearing; in　　　　 D. wear; on
【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词的用法和介词的用法。句意: 我注意到安在校会上穿着一件绿色裙子。我认为她穿红色比较好看。这里是notice sb. doing sth. 注意到某人正在做某事, wearing是现在分词作宾语补足语, 表示主动和进行的意义, 强调状态; in是介词“穿着”, 表示状态。故选C。
4. —Did you borrow the book called Harry Potter from the library?
—Yes. I　　　it for three days. I’ll return it this afternoon. 　
A. borrowed　　　　 B. kept
C. have borrowed　　 D. have kept
【解析】选D。考查动词的时态。句意: ——你从图书馆里借一本名叫《哈利·波特》的书了吗? ——借了。我已经借用了三天了。我将在今天下午归还它。动词borrow意为“借”, 是终止性动词, 不和一段时间连用; keep意为“保存”, 可以和一段时间for three days连用。根据句意判断动词keep要用现在完成时。故选D。

Ⅳ. 阅读理解(20分)
A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his free time. Hobbyists keep pets, build model ships, watch birds, climb mountains, grow flowers, fish, ski, skate and swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and plays and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies, and from coins to stamps.
People have hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation. Sometimes they even make some money by following a hobby. Hobbies help people relax after hard work, and provide a balance(平衡)between work and play. Hobbies also offer more interesting activities for persons who have retired(退休). Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow an interesting hobby.
Hobbies can help a person’s mental(精神的)and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are helpful for patients to recover(恢复)from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves.
In early years, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies. But some persons who were free enjoyed hobbies.
People today have more time than before for hobbies. Machines have reduced(减少)the amount(数量)of time they must spend on their jobs. More people are retiring than before at an earlier age. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their free hours.
Sir William Osier, a famous Canadian doctor, expressed the value of hobbies by saying, “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby. ”

3. Doctors found the hobbies are________.
A. helpful for patients to become well again from illness
B. helpful for people to get up early
C. helpful for patients to take medicine

【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第三段第二句Doctors have found that hobbies are helpful for patients to recover from physical or mental illness. 可知医生发现爱好对帮助病人从身体或心理疾病中的康复颇有价值, 和选项A说法“有利于患者从疾病中再次康复”一致。故选A。

A. Hobbies are only popular among the retired people.
B. People today have little time for their hobbies.
C. Anyone should have hobbies in their free time.

【解析】选C。主旨大意题。通读全文, 结合最后一段中由作者引用的“No man is really happy or safe without a hobby”可知没有爱好, 人们不会真正感到幸福或安全。故可判断本文的写作目的是告诉我们每个人在空闲时间都应该有自己的爱好。故选C。
