OnB. ToC. InD. UnderAnswer: BQuestion 2:The book_______on the table is mine.A. lyingB. lieC. laysD. layAnswer: AQuestion 3:He asked me_______I could speak English.A. ifB. whetherC. thatD. whatAnswer: BQuestion 4:She is_______than her sister.A. more tallerB. much tallerC. tallD. tallerAnswer: BQuestion 5:I________watch TV every day, but now I’m busy with my studies.A. used toB. am used toC. get used toD. am using toAnswer: A三、多选题（每题4分）Question 1:Which of the following are correct prepositions to use with the word “home”?A) AtB) InC) ToD) OnAnswer: B) In, C) ToExplanation: We often say “at home” to indicate being present at one’s residence, but “in” is also acceptable in some contexts. “To” i s used when referring to going towards one’s home, e.g., “I’m going home to relax.” “On” is not typically used with “home” in this way. Question 2:Which verbs below can be used in the sentence “She always_____her homework before dinner”?A) DoB) DoesC) MakeD) FinishesAnswer: B) Does, D) FinishesExplanation: The subject “She” is singular, requiring a third-person singular verb. “Do” is plural/infinitive, while “Does” is the correct third-person singular form of “do” when referring to actions. “Make” is not the appropriate verb for completing homework. “Finishes” is a suitable verb to indicate completion of homework.Question 3:Identify the parts of speech that belong to adjectives in the following sentence: “The exciting movie with a happy ending made us all laugh.”A) ExcitingB) MovieC) HappyD) EndingAnswer: A) Exciting, C) HappyExplanation: Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns. In this sentence, “exciting” modifies “movie” and “happy” modifies “ending,” making both adjectives.Question 4:Which of the following are correct ways to form the negative of the verb “to have”?A) Hasn’tB) Don’t haveC) Haven’tD) Doesn’t haveAnswer: B) Don’t have, C) Haven’t, D) Doesn’t haveExplanation: “Hasn’t” is a contraction of “has not,” which is u sed for the third-person singular present tense of “to have.” However, for other forms, “don’t have” (for plural subjects or second-person singular), “haven’t” (contraction of “have not” for all forms except third-person singular), and “doesn’t have” (for third-person singular) are correct. Question 5:Select the sentence structures that are complex sentences:A) She sings beautifully.B) Although it was raining, we went for a walk.C) He eats an apple every day.D) When the bell rang, the students stood up.Answer: B) Although it was raining, we went for a walk.D) When the bell rang, the students stood up.Explanation: Complex sentences contain at least one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. In B, “Although it was raining” is a dependent clause, and “we went for a walk” is an independent clause.Similarly, in D, “When the bell rang” is a dependent clause, and “the students stood up” is an independent clause. A and C are simple sentences with only one independent clause.四、阅读理解（每题4分）Title: The Magic of BooksIn the bustling world of today, where technology reigns supreme, books often seem like relics from a bygone era. Yet, the magic of books transcends time and space, offering readers a unique escape from reality and a window into infinite possibilities.Imagine stepping into the pages of a classic novel like “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”by Mark Twain. Suddenly, you’re not just reading about Tom’s mischievous pranks but experiencing them firsthand. The Mississippi River flows beside you, the sun beatsdown on your face, and the thrill of discovering a hidden treasure fills your heart.Or delve into the fantastical world of J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” series. The Hogwarts Express chugs its way through the countryside, taking you on a journey filled with magic, friendship, and danger. You become part of the story, cheering Harry on as he faces Voldemort and his dark forces.Books have the power to transport us to places we’ve never been, introduce us to people we’ll never meet, and teach us lessons we might not have learned otherwise. They inspire creativity, empathy, and critical thinking. They are time machines, allowing us to revisit history or glimpse into the future.Moreover, the joy of reading is deeply personal.

Use your imagination and creativity to bring your dream to life.My Dream VacationNestled amidst the majestic Himalayas, Tibet stands as the epitome of my dream vacation destination. The mere thought of trekking through its snow-capped mountains, immersing myself in its rich culture, and witnessing the awe-inspiring beauty of the skyscraping peaks fills me with a profound sense of excitement and anticipation.My journey would begin with a slow ascent into the heart of Tibet, the air growing thinner with every step but the views becoming more breathtaking.I envision myself standing atop Mount Everest Base Camp, gazing up at theworld’s tallest peak, feeling humbled by its sheer size and theinsignificance of my own existence in the vastness of nature. The crisp mountain air would invigorate my senses, and the panoramic vistas would leave me spellbound.But Tibet is not just about its towering mountains; it’s also a land steeped in spirituality and history. I long to visit the Potala Palace, the iconic residence of the Dalai Lama, where the rich tapestry of Tibetan Buddhismunfolds before my eyes. Walking through its intricate corridors, adorned with intricate murals and priceless artifacts, I would feel a deep connection to the ancient wisdom and traditions that have been preserved here for centuries.Moreover, I am eager to experience the unique lifestyle of the Tibetan people.I would participate in traditional festivals, where colorful costumes, vibrant dances, and the melodious sounds of Tibetan music fill the air. I would sample local delicacies, such as yak meat and butter tea, savoring the flavors that have been passed down through generations.The tranquility of Tibetan monasteries, with their golden roofs glistening in the sun, would provide a serene backdrop for meditation and introspection.I would find solace in the peaceful surroundings, allowing myself to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with my inner self.Ultimately, Tibet represents a journey of self-discovery, a fusion of physical and spiritual exploration. It’s a place where I can immerse myself in the beauty of nature, immerse myself in the depths of human history and culture, and find a sense of peace and enlightenment. My dream vacation to Tibe t is not just a trip; it’s a transformational experience that I yearn to embark on.。
