短文理解
你将听到一篇短文,短文后有五个小题。请根据短文内容,在每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出一个最佳选项。短文读两遍。
Jim’s parents work very hard and his family has become very rich. As the only child in his family, he often gets some pocket money from his parents, but he tries his best to save money because he thinks it’s not easy for his parents to make money.
Jim likes reading. He often buys some used books on the Internet because they’re cheaper. And when he has free time, he often goes to libraries to do some reading.
Jim usually goes to school by bike. When it rains, he walks. And this also helps to keep him healthy.
Jim always brings a bottle of water to school. When other students drink juice, he enjoys his water. He thinks water is the cheapest but best drink.
Some students think Jim is poor. But I think he is a good boy. What do you think of him?
句式精讲
1. They were having a tea party in the garden.
本句所用时态为过去进行时。过去进行时的结构为:was/were+doing。
它表示在过去某一时刻或某一时间内正在进行或发生的动作,通常和表示时间、地点的时间状语一起用。例如:My parents were watching TV at 8:00 last night.昨天晚上8点我父母在看电视。They were swimming in the swimming pool this time last week.上个星期的这个时候他们在游泳池游泳。另外:在表示过去一个动作发生时,另一个动作正在进行,那么持续时间长的动作要用过去进行时。例如:When the teacher came in, I was singing.老师进来的时候我正在唱歌。When someone knocked at the door, we were having supper.当有人敲门的时候,我们正在吃晚饭。
2. To see if you remember the story!if常引导宾语从句,表示“是否”之意。当把一般疑问句的直接引语转化成间接引语时,常 用if或whether作引导词。例如:
I asked her, “Do you study English here?” 我问她:“你在这里学习英语吗?” →I asked her if/ whether she studied English there. 我问她是否在那里学习英语。
【拓展】
if与whether
if和whether均可表示“是否”,一般情况下二者可以互换。但在下列条件下,只能用whether而不能用if:
(1)if后不能直接接or not。
(2)whether可作介词的宾语。
(3)whether后可接不定式。
(4)whether可用于句首。
(5)whether可引导主语从句、表语从句。例如:
Everything depends on whether we have enough money.
一切都取决于我们是否有足够的钱。
Whether it is right or wrong, I don’t know. 正确与否,我不知道。
It doesn’t matter whether he will come or not. 他来不来没关系。
3. …she didn’t think it was strange.
she didn’t think…为否定转移句型。在think, believe, suppose, expect等动词后的宾语从句,有时谓语尽管是否定意思,却不用否定形式,而将think等动词变为否定形式。例如: I don’t think you are right. 我认为你错了。 I don’t believe they have finished their work yet. 我相信他们还未完成他们的工作。 I don’t suppose he cares, does he? 我想他不在意,是吗?
【拓展】
…think后经常用it作形式宾语,即“… think it(形式宾语) + adj. + for sb. + 动词不定式”意
为“某人认为……如何”。例如:
Do you think it useful for us to read more books? 你认为我们多读书有用吗?
4. And what is a book for…
what…for意为“有什么用,为什么”。是不理解对方动机或询问对方目的和用途时的用语,for位于句末,一般用动词不定式或for的介词短语回答。例如:
What did you hit him for? 你为什么打他?
— What did you do that for? 你为什么做那件事?
To finish the work early. 为了早完成这项工作。
— I’m going to Paris. 我要去巴黎。
— What for? (= What are you going to Paris for?) 去做什么?
【拓展】
why也表示“为什么”,但重在询问原因,一般用because回答。例如:
(1)— Why do you like P.E.? 你为什么喜欢体育?
— Because it’s interesting. 因为它有趣。
(2)— What do you like P.E. for? 你为什么喜欢体育?
— To keep healthy. 为了保持健康。
5. It was too dark for her to see anything.
too…to…意为“太……而不能”。它在结构形式上是肯定的,但意义上却表示否定含义,所以动词不定式符号to前不能再加not,只接动词原形即可,too后接形容词或副词原形。
例如:
The book is too difficult to understand. 这本书难于理解。
【拓展】
(1)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的动词是不及物动词,其后所跟的介词不能省略。例如:
The room is too small to live in. 这房间太小了不能住。
(2)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式的宾语实际上就是这个句子的主语时,动词不定式后面不能再加代词作宾语。例如:
The question is too difficult to answer. 这个问题太难了,无法回答。
(3)在too…to…句型中,当动词不定式能确切说明动作执行者时,可以在动词不定式前面加上逻辑主语,即for sb.形式。例如:
The box is too heavy for him to carry. 箱子太沉了,他搬不动。
(4)含too…to…的句子可以改写成so…that…句型,意为“如此……以至于……”。例如:
He is too old to do hard work.
= He is so old that he can’t do hard work. 他年纪太大而不能干重活。
(5)含too…to…的句子也可以用“not + 形容词/副词 + enough to do sth.”句型来替换,但注意要用原句中形容词或副词的反义词。例如:
He is too old to do hard work.
= He is not young enough to do hard work. 他年纪大了,不能做重活。

(2019年广州中考)
In early November of 1503, during Christopher Columbus’ fourth and final trip America, his ship was seriously damaged in a storm. Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain.
At first, the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors, giving them all the food and clothes they needed to survive. However, as the months passed, the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests, who were tricking and stealing from them. Finally the locals decided to stop helping. Without food or any way to leave the island, Columbus’ group was soon in serious trouble.
Luckily for Columbus, he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship. It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky. The book, written by a well-known German scientist, said there would be a total lunar eclipse (月食) on the evening of February 29, 1504 and how long it would last.
Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germany and North America. He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place. In this meeting, Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food. So his god would take away the moon to punish them. At the moment Columbus finished talking, just as he had planned, the moon began disappearing.
The local leaders grew frightened and quickly agreed to provide Columbus with food and anything else he wanted. But first, Columbus’ god had to return the moon. Columbus told them he would have to discuss the idea with his god on his ship. Knowing the moon would stay completely hidden for about 48 minutes, Columbus returned just before the moon began to reappear. From that day on, until they finally left, Columbus and his men no longer had any trouble getting the food they needed.
11. At first, the local people helped Columbus and his men by__________.
A. giving them food B. building a house for them
C. repairing their ship D. providing them with a book
12. The local people became angry because the Europeans__________.
A. looked very different B. had nothing to trade
C. were cheats and thieves D. wanted to take their land
13. Where did Columbus learn about the lunar eclipse?
A. From a book. B. From the moon.
C. From his group. D. From the locals.
14. What did Columbus do after returning to his ship on the night of the meeting?
A. He discussed the problem with his god.
B. He waited for the eclipse to finish.
C. He read about the stars and planets.
D. He told his men what happened.
15. What can we learn about the Europeans from the passage?
A. They all believed in god.
B. They never returned to Spain.
C. They admired the local people.
D. They caused their own problems.

4.C。根据时间状语at this time yesterday evening知用过去进行时态,其结构为“was/were + v. -ing形式”。
5.B。根据答语前面的No来看,应该“没有什么要说”,故选B。

1. C。句意:——昨晚聚会开始的时候我没有看到你。——那时我正在写生物报告。本题考查动词的时态。由at that time可知用过去进行时,过去进行时的结构为:was/were+doing sth.,表示在过去的某一时刻正在做某事。故答案为C项。
2. A。句意:目前,在中国对大多数父母来说孩子意味着一切。本题考查不定代词。everything一切;nothing没有什么;anything任何东西;something某事,某物。根据句意可知答案为A项。
3. C。句意:与君一席话,胜读十年书。本题考查介词辨析。with表示行为或活动涉及的对象,符合语境。
II. 完形填空。
1. B。also一般位于句子中,是“也,还”的意思。从上下文可推断出,除了我,叔叔和婶婶还邀请了另外一个人到他们家去吃饭。四个选项只有B符合题意,选项A意思合适,但一般不放在句中,所以答案应选择B。
2. C。at table 是固定搭配,意思是“在餐桌边就餐”。
3. C。此句作者是说:我肯定,我们以前见过。四个选项中符合此意只有C。
4. A。before 常用于完成时态,表示以前做过某事。
5. D。从所给四个选项的意思来判断,只有D才对。作者认为自己以前肯定见过那个年轻女人,可就是不记得在哪见过,从而得出结论,答案应该是D。
6. C。happen to do sth. 的意思是“碰巧做某事”。这个句子的意思是“在谈话时,她碰巧提起丢钱包的事”。
7. D。所给的四个选项都是形容词,所以要根据上下文,从意思上来判断哪个是正确的,作者能够正确的描述出她的钱包,年轻女人的第一反应应该是“吃惊的”,而非“激动”,所以答案是D。
8. A。be able to 是“能”的意思。
9. A。hand…over 是“把……递过来”的意思。
10.B。not only…but(also) …是“不但……而且……”的意思。
III. 阅读理解。
A篇
1. B。根据文中的“No one knows.”可知答案。
2. D。根据文中第三段可知答案。
3. C。根据文中的“The food may be ready for eating.”可知答案。
4. A。根据第四段的第六句到第十一句的内容可知答案。
5. B。根据文中的倒数第一、二段内容可知答案。
B篇
6. A。根据文章第一句话可知答案。
7. B。根据文章第三段最后两句话可知答案。
8. D。D项内容文中没有提到。
9. A。根据文章内容可知Internet不是一个大电脑。
10. C。文章最后两句话就是为了说明英语的重要性。
C篇
11. A。细节理解题,考查学生定位关键信息的能力。我们可以利用题目中的at first来定位,在文中第二段找到答案。文中的“giving them all the food”对应选项A。所以答案选A。
12. C。细节理解题,考查学生同义替换的能力。我们从题目可以看到angry,但是文中没有angry,只有unhappy。而且第二段中的however这个转折词表示however后的内容与前面的内容感彩不一样。这里unhappy后面所在的非限制性定语从句who were tricking and stealing from them对应选项C。所以我们答案选C。
13. A。细节理解题。同学们可能看到the lunar eclipse就因为不懂单词而遇到困难。其实这题文章有中文,我们用中文定位答案区间,然后我们在第三段第一句找到答案had a book。所以答案选A。
14. B。推理判断题。这一题比较难,要在综合理解第四段和第五段的基础上才能理解。其实这两段的意思就是哥伦布为了让当地人给他们食物和衣服,哥伦布就利用族人害怕月食的心理来骗他们。哥伦布假装回到船上与他的神讨论什么时候让月亮出来,其实哥伦布只是呆在船上等待月食结束。所以这一题选B。
15. D。细节理解题。首先A和B选项出现了绝对化选项all和never,我们从文中也找不到这两个选项的答案,所以排除A、B。对于C项,我们理解全文后可知是当地人崇拜哥伦布,因为哥伦布可以说服他们的神让当地人重见月亮。而D选项我们可以从第二段的非限制性定语从句who were tricking and stealing from them找到答案D。
IV. 书面表达。
参考范文:
Among many exam experiences, I still remember what happened in the final exam last term. In the past I always felt nervous at the beginning of exams. And because of this, I never gave the best performance. But in the last final exam, when I got the paper, I was surprised to see some warm words on the paper,“Hi, everyone. Believe in yourself and you will do best. Good luck.” Seeing these words, the feeling of nervousness soon disappeared and I became confident. I did best that time. Ever since then, whenever I have exams, these simple but warm words always encourage me and make me feel confident.
