Who created the whole world．B. How the birds were created．C. Why the Great Spirit created animals．D.

Say thank you．B. Show a smiling face．C. Change the subject．D. Ignore（忽视）the compliment．38.The writer gave her own experience as an example to show ______ ．A. her spoken Chinese is goodB. she is interested in Chinese cultureC. she disagreed with her teacherD. there are cultural differences39.What is the writer's attitude towards answering a compliment？______A. It's important to accept a compliment．B. Be humble as well as enjoy it．C. Take every compliment naturally．D. It's silly（傻的）to pay somebody a compliment．四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）40.The famous British writer Charles Dickens wrote the novel Great Expectations（《远大前程》）from 1860to 1861．It follows the orphan（孤儿）boy named Pip．He lives in the countryside with his sister Mrs Joe and his brother-in-law Joe Gargery．After several events，Pip gives up his old life and leaves for London to become a gentleman．The story is about his growth in all parts of his life．Students in English secondary schools commonly study the book．Dickens is also famous for using very hard words，and this makes it difficult to understand and sometimes a little boring．But when you get over the boring parts，it offers interesting truths about life in Victorian （1837-1901）England．Many of the things the book talks about are still relevant（相关的）today，such as the gup（差距）between the rich and the poor．Dickens was a great writer．He often walked around London to watch people，from rich gentlemen to poor beggars（乞丐）．Then he put the interesting things he found into his novels，and it makes the stories very realistic（现实主义的）．Every time I read the novel．I find something new．Great Expectations is a must-read book．It helps you learn about English culture and society during this time period．If you feel it's too hard to read the book，you can read the Chinese translation first!What is Great Expectations about？______When did Dickens write the novel？______How did Dickens make the stories so realistic？______Why do students find it difficult to understand the story？______What do you think of

The smells of some passengers'（旅客）food are very strong, too.Since April, the local government of Beijing has been collecting public opinions（公众舆论）on the revised（修订的）Beijing Metro Passenger Rules. The rules say that if passengers act in an uncivilized manner（不文明的规矩）while on the subway, they will end up with bad credit（信用）scores or even being banned（禁止）from the subway, Beijing Youth Daily reported.Four kinds of behaviors were added to the revised rules. They include stealing others' seats, eating or drinking, riding without paying the fare（车票）and handing out advertisements. What's worth mentioning（值得一提的）is that people have different opinions about eating and drinking on the subway, Guangming Daily reported. The rules say all passengers except babies and people with certain health issues can't eat or drink on the subway. People have said that the smell of food and drink can annoy（打扰）other passengers.However, others question this rule, saying that people can carry drinking water, as people can get thirsty after long rides on the crowded subway. They also think it is too harsh（严厉的）to lower someone's social credit score just for eating or drinking."What problems will it make happen if I just quietly eat some food that doesn't have any smell and hold on to the packaging （包装） when I finish doing it?"

D Passengers can't throw away food packaging before they finish eating.19. A few weeks ago, my school's ninth﹣grade class went on a trip to the Black Country in England, UK to learn about geography and history．Many people believe the name comes from the 1840s because of the soot（煤烟）that was put out by factories（工厂）at that time．There is also a 10﹣meter﹣thick coal seam （煤层） close to the surface（地表）of the ground in Black Country．The aim （目的） of this trip was to get us prepared for a geography project about rivers． We also learned more about the history of England during the Industrial Revolution （工业革命）．On the first day of our trip, we went to Carding Mill Valley near Birmingham and learned about the changes that can happen to a river as it flows downstream （顺流而下）． Our teacher had given us a few lessons on how rivers work before the trip, so we were well﹣prepared for the project we had to do．The next day, we went to the famous Black Country Museum where we learned about coal mining（煤矿开采） and the lives of the people who lived during the Industrial Revolution．A highlight（高潮）of the day was when we visited a coal mine（矿） and watched a skilled craftsman（工匠） make iron chain links （铁链节）．It was truly a happy trip． I enjoy this way of learning． I like how we got an opportunity （机会） to experience what we learned about in class and put it into real﹣life practice． It was a useful way to get us more interested in what we were learning about． It also showed us the importance of the journey when we're learning something new．（1）Black Country got its name because during the 1840s________．A there were few coal minesB there were no factoriesC there was serious air pollution （污染）D the area's soil （土壤） was black．（2）The students went to Carding Mill Valley to________．A experience the country lifeB learn English historyC learn about rivers for a projectD learn more about coal mining．（3）What did the writer do during the trip？________A She went swimming in a river．B She made iron chain links．C She went to a famous museum．D She did an experiment in a river．．（4）The writer thought the trip was________．A uselessB tiringC boringD enjoyable．20. Food waste is common in many schools． Students at Whitewater Middle School in the US once looked at 200 pounds （90.7 kg） of food, including pizzas and salads, which had been thrown away after just one of their school's daily meals． It was, they said, both disgusting （令人不能接受的） and educational（有教育意义的）．"You don't know and understand how much food waste you're making till you see it, " said student Cody Gist．To deal with this problem, Whitewater has added environmental science as a new school program this year． Teachers will lead students to do research on the ways in which food is related（有关系的） to the environment, poverty （贫穷） and people's health．The school is now using compostable（可用作堆肥的） paper trays（纸托盘） as well． It worked with Every Tray Counts, a US nonprofit group． They hope students will get rid of disposable（一次性的） trays and use compostable ones instead． This can help to save more landfill（垃圾填埋） space and protect the environment（环境）．Whitewater teachers make sure students know how their own eating habits are part of bigger problems．In environmental literature（文学） class, students read books such as Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All﹣American Meal．Teacher Mollie Lyman works with several language arts classes．These classes discuss topics like how poor neighborhoods often get less healthy food． Lyman says she wants students to ask themselves some basic questions: "What do we eat?

Technology is greatly affecting all ways of our lives, from the ways we work to the ways we play. And it even causes a few social problems such as cloning humans.We have had lots of technology and it has changed our lives a lot. There is no doubt thathumans will continue to use more and more technology. Here are some examples of modern technology that will change our ideas and will affect our lives greatly.Global positioning system (GPS) (全球定位系统)It’s a system that uses radio signals from satellites to show exact (精确的) information. It tells you where the user is on the earth in all weather conditions. It’s made up of three parts: satellites, control equipment (设备) on land and receivers.Space TechnologyRussian and American scientists have worked together for the International Space Station (ISS) for a long time. They hope the ISS will provide a long-lasting lab. Such a lab will bring humans many advantages. It’s even hoped that one day space technology will take humans to their new houses in space.Underwater RobotHercules is a kind of underwater robot with some high technology equipments. It will be used to look for ancient ships which were destroyed into the deep sea during their journey long ago.The world is changing so quickly that it’s hard for us to catch up with all the new inventions because they seem to come out every month. It’s important for us to learn about new technology and the role that it plays in our lives. So we should be willing to accept modern technology, or we will fall behind the times.( )49.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about technology?A. The Internet and GPS.B. Mobile phones and iPads.C. Space technology and underwater Robot. D .Cloning sheep and AI assistant.( )50.What can we learn about GPS from the passage?A. It uses radio signals from stars to show information.B. It tells you where the user is on the Earth exactly.C. It causes a few social problems.D .It’s made up of four parts.( )51.How does the writer develop the passage?A. By telling stories.B. By listing numbers.C. By giving examples.D. By comparing facts.( )52.The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 5 refers to “________”.A .Hercules B. Technology C. Equipment D. ShipCImagine(想象) there is a glass on a table in front of you. It has water in it but it is not full. How do you describe the glass? Do you say it is half full or half empty?If you say half full, you might be an optimist(乐观主义者). If you say half empty, you might be the opposite(相反的)—a pessimist.A new study suggests that your level of optimism may affect(影响) your health.

It was the first time that six Chinese were in a space station at the same time and the first in-orbit (轨道内的) gathering of two Chinese crews (乘组).The Shenzhou-15 crew set out on the journey to the Tiangong station on the night of 29 November from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China’s Gobi Desert. They rode a spaceship that was lifted into space by a Long March 2F rocket. At 7:33 a.m. (Beijing Time), the Shenzhou-14 astronauts opened the door of their “space home” to welcome the Shenzhou-15 astronauts. The six then took a group photo to record the great moment.According to the China Manned Space Agency, the two crews stayed together for about five days, and then the Shenzhou-14 crew, who had been in orbit for nearly half a year, returned to a landing site in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region (内蒙古自治区着陆点). The Shenzhou-15 astronauts will stay in orbit for six months to do a lot of work, such as carrying out spacewalks to mount equipment (安装设备) outside the station, and doing scientific experiments (实验).Following the arrival (到达) of the Shenzhou-15 spaceship, the Tiangong space station has grown much. Tiangong is expected to operate in orbit for about 10 years and will be open to foreign astronauts in the near future, according to space officials. It is the 10th crewed space station in the world and one of the two operating stations, along with the International Space Station.Pang Zhihao, a retired researcher at the China Academy of Space Technology said that building and running a manned space station is the most difficult work. “The arrival of the Shenzhou-15 crew marked the start of the Tiangong space station’s long-term regular operation.” he added.41. What can we know from the first two paragraphs?A．The Shenzhou-14 crew left Tiangong space station.B．The Shenzhou-15 crew would be in orbit for five days.C．The Shenzhou-15 crew had been in orbit for six months.D．Two Shenzhou crews met in Tiangong space station.42. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the text?A．The selection process(选拔过程) of the Shenzhou-15 crew.B．The Tiangong space station’s future plans.C．The Shenzhou-15 astronauts’ work.D．The importance of the arrival of the Shenzhou-15 crew.43.

After he heard the sparrow’s story, he went up to the elephant. “Tell the king to find that poor bird’s 28 , or I will go inside your ear and bite you!” The elephant stopped, turned to the king and said, “Go help that sparrow, or I will throw you off.” The king was 29 . He called the minister over and the minister ordered the soldier. Then the soldier went over to the farmer, “Find that bird’s bean, or I’ll kick you off this bridge!” The farmer 30 all day and as the sun was setting, he finally found the bean.

Parking near their companies for five days a week could cost them a lot of money. At the same time, even with prices for parking lots in residential areas（居民区）rising, most of their spaces remain idle during workdays.Now a new form of sharing economy has appeared in China—the shared parking space. It has become a huge market in some big cities. In Qingdao, a coastal city in Shandong, up to 10,000 personal parking spaces have been turned into shared ones with the help of “Airparking”, an online shared parking platform developed by a network company from Guangzhou.Users can share and order a parking place by downloading and using a special app. Owners who have idle parking spaces can share some information, including the parking position, license number and time limit on the platform. With the information, users can easily find the nearest place to park. The average parking cost for shared parking is 4 yuan each hour, almost the same as the service cost in traditional parking spaces.Qingdao is one of the Chinese cities that encourage shared parking. Some other big cites, including Beijing, Shanghai and Hefei, have also begun to try this idea. The Shanghai government, for example, has set up more than 6,500 shared parking spaces to encourage the public to use. Shared parking will be more and more helpful to the drivers.34．The underlined word “idle” probably means ________ in Chinese in Paragraph 1.A．懒散的B．降价的C．闲置的D．废弃的35．If you want to use shared parking in Qingdao, you should ________.A．download and use a special appB．share your personal informationC．have a parking space of your ownD．work in central business districts36．The structure（结构）of the passage is ________.A．B．C．D．37．What can we infer from the passage？A．Qingdao has fewer shared parking spaces than Shanghai.B．Shared parking will probably become more and more popular.C．Shared parking is less expensive than traditional parking service.D．It’s hard to find parking spaces in residential areas during workdays.At about noon one weekday in Maizidian, a busy business area in Beijing, office workers come in and out of a convenience (便利) store just as usual. Nearly all carry packaged (包装的) meats and drinks before hurrying back to work.The store, owned by the Bianlifeng, sells 800 to 1,000 packaged meals, usually including rice and several smaller dishes, at lunchtime every workday. About 80 percent of the buyers are white-collar workers according to Bianlifeng. Reasonable (合理的) prices, convenience and quality of ready-to-eat meals have changed convenience stores into “kitchens” for many city workers.Zhang Hui, 32, a manager at a foreign company in Shanghai, goes to these stores for most of her meals. She spends less than 10 yuan on breakfast, including steamed stuffed buns, porridge or soybean milk, and about 20 yuan on packaged meals for lunch and dinner each day. “When I’m in hurry, or when I have to eat alone, I will choose ready-to-eat foods in convenience stores, which are fast and make buying easy. This also saves me from feeling uncomfortable about eating alone in a restaurant.” Zhang said. “Moreover, the taste of suchfoods is acceptable.”China has about 122,000 convenience stores, mainly in first-tier and second-tier cities (一线二线城市). With the changes of modern society, people seem to have faster lives. Most of them now don’t have as much time to cook as before. With more disposable income (可支配收入), people are more willing to spend on convenience. And now they are giving more importance to the environment and food safety. Ready-to-eat foods in convenience stores can meet these needs, mainly for a large number of young single people. Half of the buyers at convenience stores are those from 20 to 29, and more than 30 percent of them are office workers.38．The following are the reasons for choosing convenience stores EXCEPT ________.A．real convenience B．modern kitchensC．acceptable taste D．ready-to-eat quality39．What does the underlined word “This” mean in paragraph 3?A．Zhang Hui’s self-cooking at home.B．Zhang Hui’s eating alone in a restaurant.C．Zhang Hui’s choice of ready-to-eat foods.D．Zhang Hui’s hurry to work without having meals.40．Which of the following sentences is TRUE?A．China’s convenience stores are only in big cities.B．People care more about the environment and food safety.C．People in big cities have as much time to cook as before.D．Zhang Hui spends less than 20 yuan in convenience stores every day.41．The main idea of the passage is ________.A．what convenience stores sellB．how people like convenience storesC．why convenience stores are popularD．where people can find convenience storesCharles DarwinEarly yearsCharles Darwin was one of the six children from a big family. His grandfather and father were doctors and the young Darwin went to Edinburgh University to study medicine.However, he hated to see blood and he soon realized that he couldn’t be a doctor. He then went to Cambridge University and discovered that he had a great interest in studying plants, insects and animals. Luckily, one of Darwin’s university teachers helped him, join the perfect trip for a biologist: a voyage around the world to study nature.The BeagleIn 1831, Charles Darwin left Plymouth on The Beagle, a ship that took him around the world for five years. While he was travelling, he studied the plants and animals in the countries and on the islands that the ship visited. Darwin also spent his time on The Beagle writing notes about the things he had seen. When he finally arrived back in Britain, Darwin was already starting to create his famous theory that all living things had a common ancestor (祖先).Down houseAt home at Down House, a place that you can still visit today, Darwin wrote many articles and books about his travels, but he didn’t want to make anything about his theory known to the public. He worked in his study, where he wrote 250,000 words about his theory of evolution (进化论), but he was frightened about what people might say about his idea that monkeys were the ancestors of humans. He thought the public would be against it and was so frightened that he became ill with worry. However, when another scientist started to write about similar ideas, Darwin decided to print his book, On the Origin of Species.Most scientists accepted Darwin’s theory and people continue to study it today. On 12th February, the day he was born, Darwin Day is celebrated around the world to encourage more people to study the natural world.42．What caused Darwin to give up his study of medicine?A．He didn’t like seeing blood.B．He found the studies too difficult.C．He was pushed to give up by his family.D．He was advised to study natural science. 43．Why was the trip on The Beagle important to Darwin?A．It helped him to finish his study at the university.B．It allowed him to change his mind about his future.C．It gave him ideas about the beginnings of human life.D．It got him to complete his most famous book on the ship.44．In what order did the following happen in Darwin’s life?a. He arrived back in Britain in 1836.b. He thought the public would not support his ideas.c. He became interested in studying the natural world.d. He printed his famous book, On the Origin of Species.e. He received help to get a place on a trip around the world.f. He studied the plants and animals on the islands he visited.A．e→f→c→a→b→d B．c→e→f→a→b→dC．e→f→a→c→d→b D．c→e→f→d→a→b45．Why did the writer include the last paragraph?A．To introduce Darwin’s famous book.B．To tell how people celebrate Darwin Day.C．To explain why people accept Darwin’s ideas.D．To show Darwin’s influence on natural science.四、阅读还原7选5beautiful birds to the king. The king told the trainer (驯兽师) to make them feel comfortable in their country.One day, the king saw one bird fly very high, very quickly. 47 The trainer said that he had tried everything he could but still couldn’t make the bird move.Soon, the king announced (宣布) that he needed someone to make the other bird move and fly.A few weeks later, an old man reached the king’s palace and told him that he wouldmake the bird fly like the other one. The king asked the trainer to take the old man to train the bird.The next day, the king went to visit the old man. 48 The king was very happy and gifted the old man a handful of gold coins (金币) and asked the old man what he had done to make the bird fly in a day. The old man simply replied, “ 49 ”Some of us are like this: 50 Still we sit doing nothing or doing something to make us worse than others.A．Don’t sit still when we have wings (翅膀) to fly.B．He was surprised to see the other bird fly like the first one to great heights in fast speed.C．We have wings to fly, we know how to fly and where to fly.D．He loved birds and animals and had a very big bird sanctuary (禁猎区).E．The old man was more experienced and glad to say hello to the king.F．Just cut down the branch of the tree where the bird sat on.G．However, the other bird just sat on the branch and didn’t move even a step.五、根据汉语提示填空六、根据英文解释填空53．“Mengzi’s mother makes three moves” tells a story about a mother who did what she七、根据句意填空55．—Oh, no!
