The UK is divided up into smaller regions called “counties”．Devon is one in the southwest of England.It is a really great place to take a holiday, and today I will tell you why I think Devon is such a great place.
First, it's on the coast.This means you can spend plenty of time on the beach, which is good if it is sunny.Of course, you should take an umbrella to the beach as well, just in case it rains—which is quite likely during the British summer! But even if it's raining, there's still a lot to do in Devon.There are loads of very pretty towns, so you can easily spend a day looking at the shops, finding a place to eat some local fish and chips and enjoying an ice cream at the end of your day.If you have a sweet tooth, you will be pleased to know that Devon is famous for its fudge and cream teas.
If you're interested in history, you will find plenty of castles and old houses to visit, where ancient kings and queens once lived.Devon is also great if you enjoy spending time outdoors because you will have plenty of opportunities for walking, hiking, cycling, and boating.Devon is rich in natural beauty due to its many hills，forests, beaches and bays.This is also an area by the sea where the cliffs have a different naturally red colour.Many people come to spend a day exploring the rocks.If you are lucky, you can find fossils(化石) of prehistoric animals in the rocks or washed up on the beaches.Isn't that amazing? There are also many museums describingModule

Paris
is
the
capital
of
the
European
nation
of
France.It
is
also
one
of
the
most
beautiful
and
most
famous
cities
in
the
world.
Paris
is
called
the
City
of
Light.It
is
also
an
international
fashion
center.What
modern
women
are
wearing
in
Paris
will
be
worn
by
women
all
over
the
world.Paris
is
also
a
famous
world
center
of
education.For
example,
it
is
the
headquarters
of
UNESCO,
the
United
Nations
Educational
Scientific
and
Cultural
Organization.
The
Seine
River
divides
the
city
into
two
parts.Thirty?two
bridges
cross
this
scenic
river.The
oldest
and
perhaps
most
well?known
is
the
Pont
Neuf,
which
was
built
in
the
sixteenth
century.The
Sorbonne，a
famous
university,
is
on
the
left
bank
(south

bank
(north
side)
of
the
Seine.
There
are
many
other
famous
places
in
Paris,
such
as
the
famous
museum
the
Louvre;
the
most
famous
landmark
in
this
city
must
be
the
Eiffel
Tower.
Paris
as
well
as
the
Cathedral
of
Notre
Dame
is
named
after
a
group
of
people
called
the
Parisii.They
built
a
small
village
on
an
island,
in
the
middle
of
the
Seine
River
about
two
thousand
years
ago.This
island
called
the

lies.Today
around
eight
million
people
live
in
the
Paris
area.

W：Hey,
Tom.
Do
you
like
your
job
at
that
fast
food
restaurant?
M：No,
not
really.
I
work
there
just
because
I
need
the
money
for
school
fees.
W：Why
don't
you
like
your
work
there?
Is
it
because
of
the
pay?
M：The
pay
isn't
that
bad
and
people
there
are
friendly.It's
just
that
the
work
is
a
bit
boring，and
I
don't
feel
that
I'm
learning
much
from
working
there.
Besides,
I
usually
have

mean
you
don't
have
much
time
for
your

usually
9：30
pm
by
the
time
I
get
back
to
my
dorm.
I
can
study
for
only
about
an
hour
because
I
can't
go
to
bed
too
late.
W：Why
not
consider
finding
an
easier
part?time
job?
M：I'm
trying，but
it's
not
easy
to
find
a
good
part?time
job.
So
are
you
still
working
at
the
supermarket?
W：No.
The
pay
was
too
low.

Welcome
to
Lockley
House.
It
is
a
fine
example
of
an
old
building
from
the
time
of
Queen
Elizabeth
the
First,
in
the
sixteenth
century.
As
you
go
up
the
stairs,
you
will
see
pictures
of
the
people
who
owned
the
house
through
the
centuries.
At
the
top
of
the
stairs
is
the
Gun
Room
with
guns
from
the
sixteenth
and
seventeenth
centuries.
It
is
one
of
the
finest
collections
in
the
country.
You
can
buy
a
book
about
them
in
the
Gift
Shop.
The
building
next
to
the
house
was
originally
built
as
an
indoor
tennis
court
but
today
it
is
an
indoor
swimming
pool.
There
are
jazz
concerts
in
the
Great
Hall
one
Saturday
a
month.
These
are
very
popular,
and
some
of
the
best
players
in
the
country
perform
here.
After
you
visit
the
house,
please
take
a
walk
round
the
wonderful
gardens,
and

B
Carlos
had
been
in
New
York
for
five
months
now,
and
he
detested
it.He
would
never
forget
the
day
when
the
plane
landed.His
parents
had
big
smiles
on
their
faces
as
they
discussed
the
wonderful
new
life
they
would
have
in
this
great
city.His
older
sister
and
brother
looked
in
wonder
and
excitement
at
the
buildings.Uncle
Miguel
and
Aunt
Esperanza
thought
of
the
good
jobs
they
would
get.Grandmother
and
grandfather
told
him
what
a
lucky
boy
he
was
to
come
to
this
wonderful
city.But
Carlos
was
lonely.The
city
looked
big,
cold,
and
dirty
to
him.
They
lived
in
an
apartment
in
Manhattan.There
were
stores
and
cinemas
close
to
their
home.But
Carlos
didn't
want
these
things.He
loved
his
home
in
the
country
in
Puerto
Rico;
he
loved
the
green
fields,
the
hot
sun,
and
the
lovely
beaches.
He
didn't
want
to
go
to
school
because
it
made
him
think
of
his
friends
at
home.And
he
didn't
want
to
learn
a
new
language
that
could
never
describe
the
world
as
beautifully
as
his
own.
He
began
to
go
down
to
the
dock
(码头),
because
this
made
him
feel
closer
to
Puerto
Rico.He
sat
down
and
watched
the
ships.He
would
often
find
a
man
also
sitting
there
looking
at
the
sea.The
man
was
Eric—a
taxi
driver
who
came
there
to
escape
from
the
noisy
traffic.
Eric
noticed
the
young
boy
and
felt
his
sadness.One
day
he
said,
“Yes,
it's
hard
to
leave
your
homeland.I
remember
when
I
left
Norway
15
years
ago.I
know
it's
hard
to
start
a
new
life
in
a
new
country,
but
let's
face
it.I
did
it
and
you
can
do
it,
too.”
From
then
on
the
taxi
driver
and
the
young
boy
began
to
develop
a
deep
friendship.
本文讲述了Carlos离开自己的祖国来到曼哈顿时不适应的故事。
24．The
underlined
word
“detested”
in
Paragraph
1
probably
means________.
A．forgot
B．enjoyed
C．hated
D．missed
答案：C

A．Carlos'

in
New
York

hard
to

in
New
York
D．Carlos'
older
brother

at
the
schools
in
New
York
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。由“His
parents
had
big
smiles...they
discussed
the
wonderful
new
life...”可以得出Carlos的父母很快乐并对在纽约的生活充满期待。
26．Why

missed
his

Rico...,
and
the
lovely
beaches.”和“He
began
to
go
down
to
the
dock(码头),
because
this
made
him
feel
closer
to
Puerto
Rico.”等细节可以看出他怀念他家乡的一切。

the
same
country
B．both
hated

when
I
left
Norway
15
years
ago.I
know
it's
hard
to
start
a
new
life
in
a
new
country”可知他们有相同的问题。
C
Living
abroad
brings
many
challenges.One
of
them
is
looking
for
the
best
way
to
get
used
to
a
new
culture
while
not
losing
your
identity.In
this
process
I
have
noticed
that
it's
very
positive
to
be
in
touch
with
expats,
especially
with
expats
from
your
own
country.Why?
Read
on.
I
have
been
in
Germany
for
one
year
and
I
have
had
many
experiences.Some
of
them
were
more
positive
than
others.But
when
unexpected
things
happened,
it
was
nice
to
meet
with
other
Colombians
to
listen
to
their
experiences.Through
this
exchange,
I
have
realized
that
others
have
felt
the
same,
and
that
I
am
not
the
only
one
who
has
had
difficulties.I
also
believe
that
they,
too,
have
taken
something
from
my
experience.
Colombians
are
really
friendly
and
usually
don't
have
any
problems
with
meeting
new
people.This
has
helped
me
to
increase
my
social
network
quickly.When
I
arrived
in
Germany,
I
had
two
Colombian
friends
here,
and
I
have
kept
in
touch
with
one
of
them
who
helped
me
to
meet
other
people,
not
only
Colombians.
Most
likely,
if
you
are
a
foreigner
in
Germany,
your
native
language
is
not
German.This
is
the
way
it
is
in
my
case.My
native
language
is
Spanish
and
I
really
enjoy
speaking
it.But
it's
even
better
when
I
can
share
my
opinions,
thoughts,
and
worries
with
other
expats,
or
when
I
can
talk
about
topics
which
would
not
seem
interesting
to
local
Germans.Besides,
it's
possible
to
use
lines
and
jokes
that
only
those
who
come
from
the
same
country
or
the
same
corner
of
the
world
can
understand.
I
like
social
networks
and
since
I
arrived
in
Germany,
I
have
been
connected
with
other
expats
through
Facebook,
Twitter
and
Instagram.On
these
social
networks,
I
can
communicate
with
others
and
share
my
experiences.Meanwhile,
I
also
find
interesting
information
that
I
don't
usually
get
in
other
forms
of
media,
such
as
information
about
jobs,
flats,
language
courses,
offers
of
Colombian
products
and
events
which
are
not
in
the
local
newspapers.
在国外居住时，通过跟来自同一个国家的人交流可以让你在国外的生活变得更好。
28．Who
are
most
probably
expats?
A．People
who
face
many
challenges.
B．People
who
have
lost
their
identities.
C．People
who
love
trying
different
cultures.
D．People
who
have
moved
to
another
country.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的“Living
abroad
brings
many
challenges.”以及“...I
have
noticed
that
it's
very
positive
to
be
in
touch
with
expats，especially
with
expats
from
your
own
country.”可推测，expats是指移居国外的人。
29．Why
did
the
author
exchange
experiences
with
other
Colombians?
A．To
get
positive
experiences.
B．To
avoid
difficulties
he
may
face.
C．To
feel
relieved
after
knowing
their
difficulties.
D．To
say
something
nice
to
make
them
feel
good.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的“Through
this
exchange，I
have
realized
that
others
have
felt
the
same，and
that
I
am
not
the
only
one
who
has
had
difficulties.”可知，作者是想通过别人的困难经历找到安慰。
30．What
does
the
author
want
to
show
by
mentioning
his
Colombian
friend?
A．Colombians
are
really
friendly.
B．Other
expats
can
help
you
make
friends.
C．It's
very
important
to
meet
new
people.
D．There
are
ways
to
increase
social
network
quickly.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“I
have
kept
in
touch
with
one
of
them
who
helped
me
to
meet
other
people...”可知，作者是想表明其他的移民可以帮助你结识朋友。
31．What
is
the
benefit
of
keeping
in
touch
with
expats
according
to
Paragraph
4?
A．You
can
learn
a
new
language.
B．You
can
play
jokes
on
each
other.
C．You
can
use
your
own
language.
D．You
can
share
opinions
with
others.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的内容可知，作者认为与来自同一国家的侨人保持联系的好处是会让你在异国他乡使用本国的语言交流和沟通。
D
February
has
long
been
a
month
of
romance.With
the
sweet
smell
of
roses
in
the
air,
romantic
films
hit
cinemas
and
love
stories
fill
newspapers
and
magazines.
On
the
14th
day，it
is
a
custom
for
a
boy
to
take
his
girlfriend
out
for
dinner,
buy
her
flowers
and
chocolates，write
poems，sing
to
her
or
even
spell
out
her
name
with
rose
petals!
This
is
what
you
see
on
Valentine's
Day，a
day
named
after
Valentine
who
was
a
priest(神父)in
the
third
century
Rome.When
the
emperor
decided
that
single
men
could
become
better
soldiers
than
those
with
wives,
he
didn't
allow
marriage.
But
Valentine
continued
to
perform
marriage
ceremonies
for
young
lovers
in
secret.When
his
actions
were
discovered,
the
emperor
sentenced
him
to
death.While
in
prison,
Valentine
fell
in
love
with
the
daughter
of
his
prison
guard.Before
his
death,
he
wrote
her
a
letter,
which
he
signed
“From
Your
Valentine”，an
expression
that
is
still
in
use
today.Valentine
died
for
what
he
believed
in
and
so
he
was
made
a
Saint(圣徒)，as
well
as
becoming
one
of
history's
most
romantic
characters.
Nowadays，Valentine's
Day
is
also
popular
among
Chinese
young
people.Some
students
are
planning
to
make
Valentine's
cards
for
parents，teachers
and
friends.Others
want
to
hold
parties
at
which
they
will
exchange
small
gifts
and
eat
heart?shaped
cakes.The
idea
is
to
have
fun
and
encourage
people
to
share
in
the
spirit
of
St.Valentine.

33．Why
did

soldiers.

enough
food

the
emperor
decided
that

Do
you
know
Australia?
Australia
is
the
largest
island
in
the
world.It
is
a
little
smaller
than
China.It
is
in
the
south
of
the
earth.__36__
The
population
of
Australia
is
nearly
as
large
as
that
of
Shanghai.__37__
The
cities
in
Australia
have
got
little
air
or
water
pollution.The
sky
is
blue
and
the
water
is
clean.You
can
see
fish
swimming
in
the
rivers
clearly.Plants
grow
very
well.
Last
month
we
visited
Perth,
the
biggest
city
in
western
Australia,
and
went
to
a
wild
flowers'
exhibition.__38__
We

a
wonderful
time.Perth
is
famous
for
its
beautiful
wild
flowers.In
spring
every
year
Perth
has
the
wild
flowers'
exhibition.
After
visiting
Perth,
we
spent
the
day
in
the
countryside.We
sat
down
and
had
a
rest
near
a
path
at
the
foot
of
a
hill.It
was
quiet
and
we
enjoyed
ourselves.Suddenly
we
heard

Whatever
misfortune
you
are
faced
with,
just
hold
up
your
head
and
face
it
with
a
smile!
I
got
to
know
this
from
a
musical
soul.
The
other
day
I
was
feeling
quite
__41__，
having
just
been
fired
from
my
job.With
so
many
__42__
to
pay,
I
was
wondering
what
was
going
to
happen
to
my
family.
I
had
just
got
off
the
bus
__43__
I
heard
piano
music
and
singing
above
the
noise
of
the
traffic.I
walked
a
bit
slower,
trying
to
find
out
the
__44__
of
the
fascinating
sound.Through
the
passers?by
I
saw
a
young
lady
sitting
at
a
piano
with
a
box
next
to
her.
She
was
singing
songs
about
love
and
her
sweet
voice
__45__me
a
bit.Then
I
stood
there
watching
her
playing,
thinking
that
it
must
take
__46__
to
perform
on
her
own
in
front
of
hundreds
of
people
she
didn't
know.
She
might
have
felt
my
__47__
for
she
occasionally
looked
in
my
direction.
By
now
I
was
telling
myself
that
I
could
__48__
tell
her
how
good
she
sounded.I
walked
over
and
put
some
money
in
her
box
and
she
expressed
her
thanks
with
a
smile
on
her
face.I
asked
her
__49__，
“Why
are
you
playing
the
piano
in
the
middle
of
this
crowded
place？”
She
explained
to
me
that
she
saw
so
many
__50__people
in
the
world
that
she
was
trying
to
relieve
their
pain
by
__51__
motivational(鼓舞人心的)
music.
Instead
of
continuing
my
way
home,
I
said
to
her,
“I
have
been
__52__
a
rough
time
lately,
but
you've
made
me
__53__again.”
“I'm
happy
that
I
could
be
__54__
help
to
you，”
she
replied.“Why
are
you
so
sad？”
I
told
her
my
story
and
said,
“I'm
not
so
__55__
what
to
do...”
“You
see,
here's
__56__
the
problem
lies，”
she
responded.“When
you
were
walking,
your
head
was
down.”
She
looked
me
in
the
eyes
and
went
on,
“Don't
look
defeated,
because
__57__comes
in
different
ways
and
if
your
head
is
down
you
might
never
see
it.You
should
__58__
more...
lift
your
head
up.”
Inspired
by
what
she
said,
I
did
hold
my
head
up
and
soon
__59__
the
difficulties.So
__60__
in
trouble,
just
face
it
bravely
and
you
are
sure
to
make
it
sooner
or
later.

2．A.fear
B．believe
C．hear
D．notice
答案：D
解析：上下文语境题。由上文可知挪威小城尤坎将近六个月的时间没有阳光直射，再根据下文引号里的话可知，当地人在阳光照耀的时候注意(notice)到天空是蓝色的，但山谷里较暗。fear害怕；believe相信；hear听说。
3．A.empty
B．blue
C．high
D．wide
答案：B

8．A.repair
B．risk
C．rest
D．use
答案：D

to
use“投入使用”，符合语境。repair修理；risk冒险；rest休息。
9．A.forbids
B．directs
C．predicts
D．follows
答案：B

B．However
C．Gradually

18．A.nature?loving
B．energy?saving
C．weather?beaten
D．sun?starved
答案：D
解析：上文语境题。尤坎小镇原本每年有将近六个月的时间不见阳光，所以说他们是渴望阳光的(sun?starved)居民。nature?loving热爱自然的；
energy?saving节约能源的；weather?beaten饱经风霜的。

D．easy
答案：A

20．A.trying
B．waiting
C．watching
D．sharing
答案：D
解析：上文语境题。当我们分享(share)的时候就足够了。try尝试；wait等待；watch观看。
Ⅱ.阅读理解
Amsterdam
is
a
city
like
Venice
founded
on
and
around
water
or
waterways.However,
unlike
Venice,
Holland's
largest
city
isn't
only
a
museum.Amsterdam
is
a
real，living
and
large
city.The
Dutch
capital
has
clearly
come
a
long
way
since
it
was
founded.A
story
goes
that
two
fishermen
and
a
seasick
dog
first
came
there.The
dog
jumped
ship
to
pour
out
the
contents
of
his
stomach
and
the
two
fishermen
became
the
founders
of
Amsterdam.The
reality
of
its
founding
might
have
something
to
do
with
the
River
Amstel
which
was
built
in
the
13th
century.Settlement
developed
slowly
there
and
it
took
its
name.
Amsterdam
is
built
on
numberless
canals,
which
neatly
divide
the
city
into
easily
navigable
(可航行的)
districts.There
seems
to
be
a
canal
around
every
corner
in
Amsterdam.This
is
not
too
surprising
when
you
consider
that
the
city
is
home
to
165
canals，which
are
more
than
Venice.
During
the
summer,
people
come
together
in
Vondel
Park,
where
locals
and
tourists
alike
relax
in
the
fine
weather.
Amsterdam
might
be
one
of
Europe's
wettest

is
a
year?round
tourist

of

key

Ⅳ.七选五
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。
The
US
government's
top
education
official
wants
schools
to
do
a
better
job
teaching
students
whose
first
language
is
not
English.__1__
That
is
because
one
in
every
10
US
students
from
kindergarten
to
12th
grade
are
English
learners.Most
English
learners
come
from
a
country
where
they
speak
another
language,
or
have
parents
from
a
non?English?speaking
country.
__2__
That's
what
the
US
Education
Secretary
John
King
said.He
noted
Spanish?speaking
students
are
graduating
from
high
school
and
attending
college
at
higher
rates
than
ever
before.“But
in
too
many
places
across
the
country,
English
learners
get
less
access
to
good
teachers,
less
access
to
good
coursework,
and
less
access
to
what
they
need
to
get
success，”
King
said.
Two
recent
studies
found
English
learners
do
better
if
they
attend
classes
that
use
both
English
and
the
students'
native
language.Kelly
Gonez
is
a
policy
adviser
at
the
Department
of
Education.She
said
such
programs
are
still
not
offered
by
most
schools
teaching
English
learners.
__3__Gonez
said
some
school
districts
are
hiring
teachers
from
Spain
and
China.They
are
trying
to
make
up
for
a
lack
of
teachers
in
the
United
States
who
can
offer
teaching
in
two
languages.__4__
In
New
York
City,
for
example,
the
city's
Department
of
Education
says
its
students
speak
a
total
of
180
different
languages.About
sixty
percent
are
Spanish
speakers,
and
another
14
percent
are
Chinese
speakers.
__5__
But
she
said
schools
can
get
textbooks
in
many
more
languages
than
just
Spanish
and
Chinese.
A．It
is
very
important.
B．Many
languages
are
spoken
in
the
US.
C．There
has
been
some
progress
in
recent
years.
D．Spanish?speaking
students
are
good
at
studying.
E．But
such
programs
are
not
always
easy
to
set
up.
F．Gonez
said
that
it
may
be
hard
to
find
such
teachers.
G．One
problem
is
finding
enough
teachers
who
can
do
that.
在美国，很多学生的第一语言并不是英语，如果既用英语又用他们的母语给他们上课，可以提高他们的学习成绩。
1．A 解析：根据第一段的“That
is
because
one
in
every
10
US
students
from
kindergarten
to
12th
grade
are
English
learners.”可知，这样做很重要。
2．C 解析：根据第二段的“He
noted
Spanish?speaking
students
are
graduating
from
high
school
and
attending
college
at
higher
rates
than
ever
before.”可知，在这方面取得了一定的进步。
3．G 解析：根据第三段的“She
said
such
programs
are
still
not
offered
by
most
schools
teaching
English
learners.”可知应选G，G项的内容是在解释原因。
4．E 解析：根据此空后面的“In
New
York
City，for
example，the
city's
Department
of
Education
says
its
students
speak
a
total
of
180
different
languages.”可知，这样的项目不容易建立。
5．F 解析：根据下文的“But
she
said
schools
can
get
textbooks
in
many
more
languages
than
just
Spanish
and
Chinese.”可知前后是转折关系，应选F。

本文是说明文，介绍了中国的传统节日“腊八节”。
1．twelfth
解析：考查序数词。此处on
the
eighth
day
of
the
twelfth
month
of
the
lunar
calendar表示在农历十二月的第八天，故用序数词。
2．pronunciation
解析：考查词性转换。空处在谓语动词has后作宾语，且空前有the
same修饰，故应用名词。注意pronunciation的正确拼写形式。
3．stories
解析：考查名词单复数。several表示“几个”，story为可数名词，故用其复数形式。
4．what
解析：考查名词性从句的连接词。分析句子结构可知，“__4__we
do
know”是主语从句，空处在从句中作know的宾语，意为“我们的确知道的是”，故用what引导。
5．a
解析：考查冠词。句中time表示“一段时间”，后面的to
pray
for
a
good
harvest作定语，作此用法的time为可数名词。
6．eating
解析：考查非谓语动词。介词of后作宾语用v.?ing形式。
7．In
解析：考查固定搭配。in
general总的来说，一般说来。
8．Traditionally
解析：考查词性转换。空处位于句首，修饰整个句子应用副词。
9．Another
解析：考查代词。此处表示“另一，又一”，且位于句首，故用Another。
10．which
解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Laba
garlic，关系词在定语从句中作主语，故用which。
