Chapter 4．D. Chapter 5．25.Below is a diagram （图表）from the book．Between which pages can you find it？______A. Pages 46-58B. Pages 32-46．C. Pages 17-32D. Pages 71-8626.Which of these may be the best title of the book？______A. The History of Shanghai．B. The Geography of Shanghai．C. Social Studies for Shanghai．D. Something about Old ShanghaiBAccording to a recent report，kids in primary school spend about six hours every week doing their homework．So kids hate homework．However，their parents hate homework，too．Is it good for kids to do homework？Of course，a great number of researches do show that kids can remember what they have learnt in class better by finishing their homework on time and homework itself plays an important role in developing their learning skills，such as independent thinking and creativity．But for parents，the result is not the same．After a day of hard work，most of them feel like they're going through school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework．And a recent survey found that 46 percent of parents feel like they don't spend enough quality time with their children，because they spend too much time doing the housework or helping with homework．And another 29 percent of parents have arguments with their kids often when they have different answers to the same question．Now several education scientists strongly advise parents to stop helping．They say it will give their kids more independence and give parents back their free time．At the same time，the number of homework-connected arguments will be less at home．Katy Smith，an education scientist，says，"You don't have to know everything．Children need to put their hands up for help and so do parents．Use your resources-online teachers，or even your neighborhood-just ask．"27.What do we know from the researches mentioned in Paragraph 2？______A. Homework improves learning skills．B. Both parents and kids hate homework．C. Kids love doing homework by themselves．D. Parents enjoy sitting down helping their kids．28.Most parents feel ______ when they are helping their kids with their homework．A. they are at work againB. they are school students againC. they are teachers of their kidsD. they are not as good as their kids29.Why do some parents argue with their kids？______A. Their kids don't finish homework on time．B. Their kids don't like to do their homework．C. Their kids don't work out the correct answers．D. Their kids don't agree with them on the answers．CYou are walking alone down the street．Suddenly，you hear footsteps．Is someone following you？How do you know the footsteps are someone else's and not your own？You can tell because your brain（大脑）has the ability to ignore（忽略）certain sounds，according to a study from New York University in the US．Because of this，we often ignore our own footsteps．But we may easily hear others' footsteps．Scientists tested this on mice．They found that when mice became familiar with the sound of their own footsteps，they developed a "sensory filter（感觉过滤器）"．This allowed the miceto ignore the sounds of their own footsteps．They could more easily notice the sounds of their environment．"For mice，this is really important because they need to listen for a cat getting close to them，even when they are walking and making noise．" Said David Schneider，one of the lead authors of the study．Our minds don't just ignore our footsteps．We also ignore some other sounds that we make ourselves，including the sound of eating，breathing heavily and typing on a keyboard．Being able to ignore these unimportant noises lets us focus on（集中精神）more important and dangerous ones．For example，we are quick to notice the sound of a baby crying．So we can rush to make sure they are okay and keep them alive．The same idea applies to human screaming．When we hear this sound，we can quickly go to help the screaming person．30.What helps the mice ignore the sounds of their own footsteps？______A. The environmentB. Cats' footstepsC. ScientistsD. Their sensory filters31.Can you guess the meaning of the underlined word "screaming"？______A. talking loudlyB. laughing happilyC. shouting in fearD. running quickly32.Which of the following sounds would most probably be ignored by our brain？______A. Others' footstepsB. Self-made soundsC. A baby cryingD. Screaming33.Which of the following are NOT true according to the passage？______A. Ignoring certain sounds helps mice stay alive．B. Screaming and baby crying are unimportant noises．C. Both humans and mice have the ability to ignore certain sounds．D. To our brain，others' footsteps are easier to hear than our own footsteps．四、任务型阅读-完成表格（本大题共1小题，共5.0分）34.What do we really mean by being open？Being open is a kind of invitation to others tocome in，to speak and to share．It is important in letting others get to know how we think and feel．In this way we will be understood and accepted by others．If we aren't open with others，we won't fully believe in ourselves or others．Here are a few ways for you to be more open．First，make your outside behavior the same with your inside feelings and thoughts．Second，share how you really feel about something instead of just opinions．Third，try to change your questions into statements and talk in the first person so that people will understand you more easily．For example，you might say，"I feel happy that you're here．" instead of，"Are you glad that you're here？" Finally，try not to say，"I don't know．" This usually means I don't want to think about it any more．Remember also that it is not suitable to be open with everyone in every situation．You may want to be more open with close friends，but not with people you don't know well，because you are not sure how someone else will use what they know about you．Besides，some people may not be used to too much openness．If we say everything we feel or think to them，they will feel very uncomfortable at times．In all，being open is a good way for us to get on well with other people，but we'd better______ others to come in，to speak and to share．Show others how we think and feel．Let others understand and accept us．Believe in ourselves and others by being open．______ to be more open Make sure your outside behavior is the same with your inside feelings and thoughts．Try to share your real feelings．Make statements instead of（3）______ and use the first person．Try not to say，"I don't know．" Reasons for not being too open Someone may use your（4）______ to hurt you．You will make them feel very uncomfortable sometimes．Conclusion：It will make us get on well with（5）______ if we keep the balance between being open and not being too open．五、单词拼写-单句（本大题共4小题，共4.0分）35.All the students______（欢呼）for the team because they won the match．36.Yesterday I bought an______（橡皮）for my daughter．37.Remember to read these______（说明）before you do the DIY job．38.Please hand in your______（完成的）homework， boys．六、单句语法填空（本大题共4小题，共4.0分）39.It's______ （possible） for us to finish the work in one day． That's too difficult．40.He fell down from the tree last week． But______（luck）， he didn't hurt badly．41.Girls， help______（you） to some apples， they are very delicious．42.These years，the air quality has become______（bad） than before．七、完成句子（本大题共6小题，共9.0分）43.亚马孙河是世界第二长河．Amazon River is______ river in the world．44.他很想去踢足球，而不是在家读书．He really wants to play football__________________ books at home．45.上个月我迫不及待地加入了舞蹈俱乐部．I________________________ the Dancing Club last month．46.我认为看电视没有听音乐这么有趣．I don't think watching

can只是用来修饰time的，意为"尽可能多的时间"，所以句子的谓语仍然为spend；结合提示词practise为动词"练习"，所以此处应用其动名词形式为practising，前面省略了介词in．故填写：practising你应该花尽可能多的时间练习说英语．此题考查固定句型的表达．此题的关键是理解好句意，排除掉as much…as you can 的干扰，套用句型后做此题就容易的多了．50.【答案】chose【解析】chose略略51.【答案】mixes【解析】mixes略略52.【答案】Is going to join【解析】Is， going to join略略53.【答案】have fewer weeks off for【解析】have…off 放假，fewer 更少的，修饰复数名词故答案是：have fewer weeks off

brothers两者之间的比较，故用比较级，这里是特指，故用the，故答案是C．汤姆是两双胞胎兄弟中较懒的一个，他功课不好，当要特指两者中"较（更）…"时，比较级前通常要带定冠词，此时可视为比较级后省略了有关的名词或代词one，即定冠词实为修饰被省略的名词或代词one．如：Tom is the taller of the twins．This dictionary is the more useful of the two．在两本词典中，这本更有用．Mary was the more beautiful of the two．玛丽是这两个人当中较美丽的．3.【答案】C【解析】答案：C根据题意：我妹妹非常小心．她在考试中几乎不犯错误．结合选项，A．修饰不可数名词，表示否定B．修饰不可数名词，表示肯定C．修饰可数名词，表示否定D．修饰可数名词，表示肯定，故选C．我妹妹非常小心．她在考试中几乎不犯错误．熟悉形容词短语的基本用法，结合题意，给出答案．4.【答案】B【解析】答案：B根据题意：厨房里的管道出问题了．结果，Andrew不得不放进去一个新的．结合选项，A．穿上B．放进去C．熄灭D．挂起，选项B符合题意，故选B．厨房里的管道出问题了．结果，Andrew不得不放进去一个新的．熟悉动词短语的基本用法，结合题意，给出答案．5.【答案】A【解析】答案：A根据题意：-他的表妹什么时候到达？-大约12点钟．结合选项，arrive后要接介词in/at；get 后接to；reach不接介词，故选A．-他的表妹什么时候到达？-大约12点钟．熟悉动词短语的基本用法，结合题意，给出答案．6.【答案】B【解析】答案：B．考查比较级．句意"这篇课文比那篇课文容易得多，有趣得多．"．第一个空，easier比较级，更容易的，修饰比较级可以用much，因此A，C不正确．第二个空，and连接并列成分，因此也用比较级形式，interesting多音节形容词，比较级在前面加more．因此D不正确．答案是B．这篇课文比那篇课文容易得多，有趣得多．考查比较级，要熟练掌握比较级的变法，根据具体的语境仔细分析选择恰当的比较级形式．7.【答案】D【解析】答案D．本题考查ing和ed 形容词．ing形容词修饰物和事，ed形容词修饰人．本句的主语是Fishing with Dad，是一件事，所以要用ing形容词，而根据后半句he almost fell asleep，可知，钓鱼这件事对小Sam来说不是令人兴奋，而是令人无聊，所以他几乎睡着了，故本题选D．和爸爸一起钓鱼对小Sam来说是如此无聊以至于他几乎睡着了．做好本题首先必须掌握ing和ed 形容词的用法，然后还要了解形容词的意思．8.【答案】B【解析】答案：B．on "在…之上，向，朝…"是介词，for"为，为了"是介词，to"到，向，朝…方向"go on "向前去，进行"，因此用go on a school trip．到颐和园的方向去，应用介词to，由题干"如果现在你有一个长假，你将会去颐和园做一次学校旅行吗？"可知，故答案选择B．如果现在你有一个长假，你将会去颐和园做一次学校旅行吗？本题考查介词的辨析，在熟知所供词的含义基础上，根据句意，从而判断出正确答案．9.【答案】D【解析】答案：D 考查动词的固定搭配．句意"孩子们在圣诞节的早上迫不及待的打开礼物盒子．"根据题干Children couldn't wait the gift box _______ the morning of Christmas Day ．可知第一空can't wait to do sth表示迫不及待做某事，所以用to open；第二空表示具体在某一天的早上要用介词on，故选D．孩子们在圣诞节的早上迫不及待的打开礼物盒子．掌握一些固定用法的含义，及其介词的用法，分析句子内容进行作答．10.【答案】B【解析】答案：B．考查副词原级比较．句意"丹尼斯不象其他人那样仔细地作画，但他的想法是最美妙的．"．A和…一样仔细，形容词．B和…一样仔细，副词．C
