A
I
come
from
Cambridge,
a
beautiful
city
in
the
east
of
England.
It
is
on
the
River
Cam
and
has
a
population
of
about
120,000.
My
hometown
is
especially
famous
for
its
university.
Many
famous
people
studied
here,
such
as
Isaac
Newton
and
Charles
Darwin.
There
are
lots
of
old
buildings
and
churches
to
visit.
Students
and
tourists
enjoy
trips
along
the
river
by
boat.
Cambridge
is
80
kilometres
from
London.
London
is
in
the
south
of
England
and
it
is
on
the
River
Thames.
It
has
a
population
of
about
seven
and
a
half
million,
so
it
is
bigger
and
busier
than
Cambridge.
It
is
about
2,000
years
old,
and
it
is
famous
for
Big
Ben,
Buckingham
Palace
and
Tower
Bridge.
England
itself
is
part
of
an
island,
and
you
are
always
near
the
sea.
The
small
villages
and
beaches
on
the
coast
are
popular
for
holidays.
Tourists
like
the
areas
of
low
mountains
and
beautiful
lakes
in
the
north,
and
the
hills
and
pretty
villages
in
the
south.
Everywhere
in
England,
you
will
notice
how
green
the
countryside
is.
It
is
never
very
hot
in
summer
or
very
cold
in
winter.
So
come
and
see
England
any
time
of
the
year,
but
bring
an
umbrella
with
you.
It
rains
a
lot
all
year
round.
You
will
need
it
most
days.

答案：C
B
Ireland
has
had
a
very
difficult
history.
The
problems
started
in
the
16th
century
when
English
rulers
tried
to
conquer
Ireland.
For
hundreds
of
years,
the
Irish
people
fought
against
the
English.
Finally,
in
1921,
the
British
government
was
forced
to
give
independence
to
the
south
of
Ireland.
The
result
is
that
today
there
are
two
“Irelands”.
Northern
Ireland,
in
the
north,
is
part
of
the
United
Kingdom.
The
Republic
of
Ireland,
in
the
south,
is
an
independent
country.
In
the
1840s,
the
main
crop,
potatoes,
were
affected
by
disease
and
about
750,000
people
died
of
hunger.
This,
and
a
shortage(短缺)
of
work,
forced
many
people
to
leave
Ireland
and
live
in
the
USA,
the
UK,
Australia
and
Canada.
As
a
result
of
these
problems,
the
population
fell
from
8.2
million
in
1841
to
6.6
million
in
1851.
For
many
years,
the
majority
of
Irish
people
earned
their
living
as
farmers.
Today,
many
people
still
work
on
the
land
but
more
and
more
people
are
moving
to
the
cities
to
work
in
factories
and
offices.
Life
in
the
cities
is
very
different
from
life
in
the
countryside,
where
things
move
at
a
quieter
and
slower
pace.
The
Irish
are
famous
for
being
warm-hearted
and
friendly.
Oscar
Wilde,
a
famous
Irish
writer,
once
said
that
the
Irish
were
“the
greatest
talkers
since
the
Greeks”.
Since
independence,
Ireland
has
revived(复兴)
its
own
culture
of
music,
language,
literature
and
singing.
Different
areas
have
different
styles
of
old
Irish
songs
which
are
sung
without
instruments.
Other
kinds
of
Irish
music
use
many
different
instruments
such
as
the
violin,
whistles,
etc.
5.
What
does
the
author
tell
us
in
paragraph
1?
A.
How
the
Irish
fought
against
the
English.
B.
How
Ireland
gained
independence.
C.
How
English
rulers
tried
to
conquer
Ireland.
D.
How
two
“Irelands”
came
into
being.
解析：推理判断题。由第一段中“The
result
is
that
today
there
are
two
‘Irelands’.
Northern
Ireland,
in
the
north,
is
part
of
the
United
Kingdom.
The
Republic
of
Ireland,
in
the
south,
is
an
independent
country.”可知,北爱尔兰是英国的一部分,而南部的爱尔兰共和国是独立的国家。由此可知,作者告诉我们,“两个爱尔兰”是如何形成的。故选D。
答案：D
6.
What
can
we

about
Ireland
from
the
text?
A.
Food
shortages
in
the
1840s
led
to

decline
in
population.
B.
People
are
moving
to
the
cities
for
lack
of
work
in
the
countryside.
C.

living
as
a
farmer
than
as
a
factory
worker.
D.
Different
kinds
of
old
Irish
songs
are
all
sung
with
instruments.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“In

1840s,
the
main
crop,
potatoes,
were
affected
by

population
fell
from
8.2

to
6.6
million
in
1851”可知,在19世纪40年代,主要农作物受疾病影响,大约75万人死于饥饿,爱尔兰人口骤减到660万。故选A。
答案：A

答案：C
C
Manchester
is
the
“capital”
of
the
northwest
of
England.
Situated
on
the
east
bank
of
the
River
Irwell,
it
is
a
lively
busy
city
with
a
large
student
population.
Although
it
was
once
seen
as
only
a
dull
industrial
place,
in
recent
years
Manchester
has
become
the
“in”
place.
It
is
well
known
for
its
clubs,
its
fashion
and
its
music,
not
to
mention
its
world-famous
football
team,
Manchester
United.
There
is
plenty
to
see
in
Manchester
and
something
to
suit
all
tastes.
For
example,
you
have
a
taste
of
the
Orient
in
Chinatown,
home
to
Manchester’s
large
Chinese
population.
Another
place
to
visit
is
the
historical
Eastlefield
area,
which
contains
the
first
urban
heritage
park
in
Britain.
Here
you
can
walk
around
the
museums
and
experience
the
atmosphere
of
the
19th
century
Manchester.
Football
fans
need
not
feel
left
out;
they
can
always
make
a
trip
to
the
Old
Trafford
Manchester
United
Museum
which
also
contains
a
coffee
shop
and
a
souvenir
shop.
It’s
easy
to
find
your
way
around
the
city
centre
and
you’re
never
too
far
away
from
a
bus,
which
will
take
you
wherever
you
want
to
go.
However,
many
people
prefer
walking
in
a
city
where
there’s
so
much
to
see,
and
much
of
it
is
off
the
main
travel
lines.
If
you
get
tired
with
all
that
walking,
you
can
refresh
yourself
at
one
of
the
many
café
bars
in
the
city.
There’s
a
wide
variety
of
homely
and
old-fashioned
ones.
Whatever
you
do,
you
won’t
have
a
dull
moment
in
the
place
which
was
awarded
the
title
of“most
interesting
city
in
Europe”.
Despite
its
unpopular
industrial
image
in
the
past,
Manchester
is
becoming
more
and
more
popular
as
a
tourist
destination
nowadays.

A.

industry.
C.

is
interesting

答案：D

in
the
last
paragraph
refer
to?
A.
Europe’s.
B.
Tourism’s.
C.
Manchester’s.
D.
Industry’s.

its
unpopular
industrial
image
in
the
past是介词短语,主语是后面的Manchester。尽管曼彻斯特以前是一个工业城市,但是曼彻斯特正变为一个旅游目的地,而且越来越受欢迎。故选C。
答案：C
D
The
United
Kingdom
of
Great
Britain
and
Northern
Ireland
is
one
of
the
most
diverse
nations
in
the
whole
of
Europe.
This
article
will
show
you
how
to
adapt
to
the
varied
culture
of
England,
Scotland,
Wales
and
Northern
Ireland.
Get
used
to
small
spaces.
The
United
States
is
not
only
a
huge
country
but
also
has
big
cars,
houses
and
spaces.
11
Houses,
apartments,
cars
and
appliances
are
all
smaller
than
what
you
are
accustomed
to,
so
you
have
to
get
used
to
smaller
things.
?
Be
polite.
Always
apologise
for
running
into
someone,
even
if
it
is
their
fault,
as
it
makes
you
out
to
be
a
kind
person.
Respect
people’s
personal
space
and
always
wait
in
line.
Accept
jokes.
12
Bantering
and
taking
the
mickey
are
all
ways
to
describe
making
fun
of
someone
but
this
isn’t
necessarily
a
bad
thing.
Teasing
someone
is
a
common
way
to
show
friendship.
As
one
Briton
put
it,
“You
never
make
fun
of
someone
you
don’t
like.”?
Get
used
to
the
driving.
The
British
drive
on
the
left
side
of
the
road.
13
Also
the
cars
in
the
UK
have
the
steering
wheel(方向盘)
on
the
right
side,
so
you
need
to
get
used
to
this
as
well.
Be
especially
careful
with
your
turns
and
remember
that
right
turns
in
the
UK
cross
opposite
traffic
in
the
same
way
that
left
turns
do
in
the
US
and
other
countries
that
drive
on
the
right.?
14
The
British
use
different
words
and
pronounce
words
differently.
Look
around
on
the
Internet
or
buy
books
about
words
and
expressions
used
in
Britain.?
There’s
more
to
the
UK
than
London.
London
is
an
excellent
city
and
the
most
popular
in
the
United
Kingdom.
15
And
the
green
countryside
is
a
defining
feature
of
the
UK,
which
is
something
that
should
be
explored.?
A.
Get
used
to
the
lifestyle.
B.
Get
used
to
the
language.
C.
Different
regions
have
their
own
traditions
and
even
languages.
D.
Be
sure
that
you
do
so,
or
the
result
could
be
terrible.
E.
However,
the
UK
does
not
have
the
luxury
of
space.
F.
But
there
are
many
other
cities
filled
with
culture
and
wonder.
G.
One
of
the
most
confusing
aspects
of
British
culture
is

Hundreds
of
years
ago,
a
Roman
army
made
war
on
Scotland.
The
Scots,
a
brave
people,
love
their
country.
They
fought
hard
to
drive
the
enemy
out
of
Scotland.
But
there
were
too
many
of
the
Romans.
It
looked
as
if
the
Romans
would
win.
One
night,
the
leader
of
the
Scots
marched
his
soldiers
to
the
top
of
a
hill.
“We
will
rest
here
tonight,
my
men,”
he
said.
“Tomorrow
we
will
fight
one
more
battle.
We
must
win,
or
we
will
die.”
They
were
all
very
tired.
So
they
ate
their
supper
quickly
and
fell
asleep.
There
were
four
guards
on
duty,
but
they
were
very
tired,
too,
and
one
by
one,
they
fell
asleep.
The
Romans
were
not
asleep.
Quickly
they
gathered
at
the
foot
of
the
hill.
Slowly
they
went
up
the
hill.
Closer
they
came
to
the
sleeping
Scots.
They
were
almost
at
the
top.
A
few
minutes
more
the
war
would
be
over.
Suddenly,
one
of
them
put
his
foot
on
a
thistle
(蓟).
He
cried
out
and
his
sudden
cry
woke
the
Scots.
In
a
minute
they
were
on
their
feet
and
ready
for
a
battle.
The
fighting
was
hard,
but
it
did
not
last
long.
The
Scots
wiped
out
the
Romans
and
saved
Scotland.
The
thistle
is
not
a
beautiful
plant.
It
has
sharp
needles
all
over
it.
Few
people
liked
it.
But
the
people
of
Scotland
liked
it
so
much
that
they
made
it
their
national
flower.
1.
What
is
the
reaction
of
the
sleeping
Scots
at
the
shout
of
a
Roman
soldier?
A.
They
began
to
fight
the
Romans
hard.
B.
They
stood
up
without
shoes
and
began
to
fight.
C.
They
woke
and
rose
immediately,
ready
to
fight.
D.
They
put
on
shoes
at
once
and
were
ready
to
fight.
解析：细节理解题。从第四段“In
a
minute
they
were
on
their
feet
and
ready
for
a
battle.”可知,此处be
on
one’s
feet意为“站起来”,而不是光着脚的意思。故选
C。
答案：C
2.

the
result
of
the
war?
A.
The
Romans
killed
all
the
Scots.
B.
The
Scots
were
defeated.
C.
The
Scots
were
driven
out
of
Scotland.
D.
The
Scots
defeated
the
Romans.

out意为“消灭,清除”。故选D。
答案：D
3.
Why
did
the
Scots
make
the
thistle
their
national
flower?
A.
It
is
lovely,
though
not
beautiful.
B.
It
gave
them
happiness.
C.
It
is
a
kind
of
useful
plant.
D.
It
helped
the
Scots
in
wiping
out
the
Romans.
解析：推理判断题。从前四段可以判断,是蓟帮助了苏格兰人。故选D。
答案：D

If
life
were
a
book
and
you
were
the
author,
how
would
you
like
the
story
to
go?
That
is
the
question
that
1
my
life
forever.?
One
day
I
went
home
from
the
training
of
snowboarding
with
what
I
thought
was
the
flu,
and
less
than
24
hours
later,
I
was
in
a
2
on
life
support
with
less
than
two
percent
3
of
living.
It
wasn’t
until
days
later
that
the
doctors
diagnosed(诊断)
me
with
a
4
blood
infection.
Over
the
5
of
2.5
months,
I
lost
the
hearing
in
my
left
ear
and
both
my
legs
below
the
knees.
When
my
parents
6
me
out
of
the
hospital,
I
7
I
had
been
put
together
like
a
patchwork(拼缝物)
doll
and
I
had
to
live
with
8
legs.
I
was
absolutely
physically
and
emotionally
broken,
9
streaming
down.?
But
I
knew
in
order
to
move
forward,
I
had
to
let
go
of
the
old
Amy
and
10
the
new
Amy.
It
was
at
this
moment
that
I
asked
myself
that
significant
11 .
And
that
was
when
it
12
me
that
I
didn’t
have
to
be
five-foot-five
anymore,
13
I
could
be
as
tall
as
I
wanted.
And
14
of
all,
I
could
make
my
feet
the
size
of
all
the
shoes.
So
there
were
15
here.?
Four
months
later,
I
was
back
upon
a

And
this
February,
I
won
two
Board
World
Cup
gold
medals,
17

the
highest

in
the
world.?
So,
instead
of
looking
at
our
18
and
our
limitations
as
something
19
or
bad,
we
can
begin
looking
at
them
as
a
wonderful

that
can
be
used
to
help
us
go
further
than
we
ever
know
we
could
go.?

The
state
of
Hawaii
derives(获得)
its
name
from
the
name
of
its
largest
island,
Hawaii.
A
common
Hawaiian
explanation
of
the
name
of
Hawaii
is
that
it
was
named
after
Hawiioa,
a
legendary
figure
from
Hawaiian
myth.
He
is
said
to
have
discovered
the
islands
when
first
settled.
There
are
some
special
traditions
in
Hawaii.
People
are
very
friendly
and
always
welcome
visitors.
They
give
visitors
a
long
necklace
of
beautiful
fresh
flowers.
Men
wear
bright
flowered
shirts,
and
women
often
wear
long
flowered
dresses.
There
are
traditional
Chinese,
Japanese
and
Filipino
holidays
and
all
the
holidays
from
the
United
States.
They
call
Hawaii
the
Aloha
State.
Aloha
means
both
hello
and
goodbye.
It
also
means
“I
love
you”.
Usually
when
people
from
different
countries,
races,
and
traditions
live
together,
there
are
serious
problems.
There
are
a
few
problems
in
Hawaii,
but
in
general,
people
have
learned
to
live
together
in
peace.
Hawaiians
earn
most
of
their
money
from
travellers,
most
of
whom
come
from
the
US
mainland
and
from
Japan.
There
are
many
people
living
in
Hawaii
now
so
there
are
residential
areas
where
there
used
to
be
farms.
Some
of
the
big
sugar
and
pineapple
companies
have
moved
to
the
Philippines,
where
they
do
not
have
to
pay
workers
so
much
money.
The
families
of
the
first
people
who
came
from
the
US
mainland
own
the
important
banks
and
companies.
Japanese
are
also
buying
or
starting
businesses
here.

答案：D
B
Europe
is
home
to
a
variety
of
cultural
treasures.
Lonely
Planet,
the
world’s
largest
travel
guide
publisher,
has
offered
pairs
of
cities
for
culture
hungry
but
time
poor
travellers.
London
and
Paris
It
takes
you
about
two
hours
to
travel
from
London
to
Paris
by
Eurostar,
a
high-speed
railway
service.
The
two
capital
cities
have
been
competing
in
fashion,
art
and
nightlife
for
decades—but
each
secretly
looks
up
to
the
other.
No
one
can
doubt
the
grand
and
impressive
beauty
of
Paris'
Louvre
Museum,
but
if
you
want
to
save
money,
you
cannot
skip
the
British
Museum
free
to
visit.
Compared
with
London,
Paris
has
more
outdoor
attractions
such
as
the
beautiful
green
walkway
La
Promenade
Plantee.
In
Paris,
you’ll
see
diners
linger
over
red
wine.
While
in
London,
you
can
try
some
afternoon
tea,
eat
fish
and
chips
or
salted
cake.
Vienna
and
Bratislava
Vienna,
capital
of
Austria,
and
Bratislava,
a
city
of
Slovakia,
are
an
hour
apart
by
train.
But
since
they
are
linked
by
the
Danube
River,
the
best
way
to
travel
is
by
ship.
A
tour
of
the
two
cities
is
the
perfect
way
to
experience
everything
from
17th
century's
Habsburg
dynasty
splendour
to
sci-fi
restaurants.
Vienna
is
famous
for
Mozart
and
imperial
palaces.
You
can
appreciate
the
perfect
blending
of
architecture
and
nature
in
the
grand
Schonbrunn
Palace,
and
reward
yourself
with
a
cup
of
Vienna
coffee,
which
has
made
its
way
to
the
world's
cultural
heritage
list.
Bratislava
is
best
known
for
its
fine
dining—the
remarkable
UFO
restaurant.
You
can
enjoy
a
meat-laden
dinner
here
in
an
amazing
setting.
4.
What’s
the
relationship
between
London

each
other.
B.
They
attack
each
other.
C.
They
admire
each
other.
D.
They
don’t
like
each
other.
解析：细节理解题。
根据第二段中的“but
each
secretly
looks
up
to
the
other”可知,这两个城市相互钦佩,故选
C。
答案：C
5.
What
are
the
advantages

Museum

outdoor
attractions
d.

wines

根据第三段中的“No
one

and
impressive
beauty
of
Paris’
Louvre
Museum”可知
a
被提及了;
根据本段中的“Paris
has
more
outdoor
attractions”可知
c
被提及了。而文中关于巴黎的优点并没有提到b
和d中的香水,故选A。
答案：A
6.

if
you
are
interested
in
sci-fi
restaurants?
A.
London.

Paris.

tour
of

cities
is
the
perfect
way
to
experience
everything
from
…
to
sci-fi
restaurants.”和最后一段中的“Bratislava

known
for
its
fine

UFO
restaurant.”可知,D
项正确。
答案：D
7.

Lonely
Planet
recommend
these
two
pairs
of
cities?
A.
They
are
not
expensive
to
visit.
B.
They
are
best
known
to
the
world.
C.
They
are
always
enemies
between
each
other.

different
in
many
aspects.

Planet,the
world’s
largest
travel
guide
publisher,has
offered
pairs
of
cities
for
culture
hungry
but
time
poor
travellers.”并结合下文的内容可知,每组中的两个城市相距不远,可以节约时间,而且它们有着不同的丰富的文化,因此才推荐给旅游者。故选D。
答案：D
C
Dear
Boris,
8
After
I
had
spent
a
week
with
my
English
family,
I
slowly
began
to
understand
their
English
a
little
better.
9
Students
in
my
group
are
from
different
cities
of
Britain
and
their
dialects
are
different
too!
Some
of
their
accents
are
quite
strong
and
they
also
have
their
own
words
and
expressions.
?
10
Before
I
came
to
England,
I
had
thought
that
fish
and
chips
were
eaten
every
day.
That's
quite
wrong!
I
get
rather
annoyed
now
when
I
hear
all
the
foolish
words
about
typical
English
food.
?
I
had
expected
to
see
“London
fog”.
Do
you
remember
our
texts
about
it?
We
had
no
idea
that
most
of
this
“thick
fog”
disappeared
many
years
ago
when
people
stopped
using
coal
in
their
homes.
But
the
idea
to
speak
about
weather
was
very
helpful.
11
On
the
other
hand,
habits
are
different.
People
tell
me
what
is
typically
British
here
in
London
is
not
always
typical
in
Wales
or
Scotland.
12 ?
But
what
is
ordinary
for
all
the
British
is
that
they
follow
traditions.
Probably
Britain
has
more
living
signs
of
its
past
than
many
other
countries.
And
people
have
always
been
proud
of
having
ancient
buildings
in
capitals,
big
cities
and
the
countryside.
I
will
tell
you
more
about
Britain
in
my
other
letters.
Love
from
Britain,
Peter
A.
The
weather
in
London
is
really
changeable.
B.
I
have
difficulty
in
understanding
my
classmates.
C.
Thanks
for
your
nice
letter.
D.
The
family
I
live
with
is
friendly.
E.
It’s
very
different
from
what
I
learned
at
school.
F.
Local
habits
and
traditions
are
not
the
same
as
what
we
knew.
G.
But
it’s
not
the
language
that’s
different
and
surprising.

答案：
The
UK
belongs
to
Europe.
The
UK
has
a
lot
of
ancient
relics
to
explore
and
also
has
many
achievements.
Collecting
information
on
the
Internet,
as
well
as
reading
books
is
a
good
approach
to
learning
about
the
UK.
However,
travelling
there
is
more
likely
to
add
to
your
pleasure,
especially
when
you
keep
your
eyes
open
for
the
surroundings.
