II.阅读理解第一节(共30分)
A
I never had friends at school because of my colorful clothes I always wore .My parents always said,“If you want to have friends,you have to be a friend.” I did that,but it didn't work .I was still ignored .I didn't want it to be the same way this year.
It was the first day of school when I knew it .I got dressed,packed my lunch,and walked to the bus stop. I sat in the cold air,with my nose feeling more like a snowflake(雪花).Then,the bus slowly pulled up. The door opened,and I saw many eyes staring at me .I walked to the back of the bus. As I passed the other kids,they would whisper and laugh. The bus trip seemed to take forever before we reached the school .When we arrived,I walked to my classroom and sat at the desk in the very back of the classroom. It wasn't that I disliked school,but I wasn't a big fan of the kids at school. I enjoyed listening to the teacher talk,but I didn't like it when the bell rang for lunch. I hid in the crowd of kids,and walked to an empty table. I opened my lunch bag,and began to eat uncomfortably. A girl with long red hair came over to my table and sat down. I got scared,but she had a friendly smile on her face.
“What's your name?” she asked.
“Rachel,” I whispered.
“I am Monica,” she said. She kept talking to me,and I talked to her a little bit.
“No one likes me,” I said after a while of dead silence.
- 19 -
“I do,” she replied.“I learned after a while of being lonely that you have to be friends with people that look lonely too. Then,no one will ever be lonely in this world,” she said.
Ever since those words have been said to me,I have lots of true friends. I will never forget the day my friend gave me advice that would last a lifetime.
21.In the eyes of other kids,the clothes Rachel wore were ______.
A. beautiful B. strange C. expensive D. fit
22. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?
A. Rachel didn't like talking with other kids.
B. Rachel used to expect the class to be over quickly.
C. Rachel was tired of learning at school.

23. What lesson did Rachel learn in the end?
A. We can live without a brother,but not without a friend.
B. Making friends with lonely people makes a happier world.
C.A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.
D.A friend is never known.
B
American schools do not have separate classes for boys and girls .If boys want to cook or to sew , they can learn these things in classes that are no longer just for girls. If girls want to repair cars, they can now learn this in school. Most students like to have boys and girls on the same baseball team.
Many boys and girls dress alike in school. They were blue jeans and sport shirts. Some have long hair and some have short hair. Sometimes a boy has longer hair than a girl.
Even the language is different. Students learn to say fire fighter instead of fireman, police officer instead of policeman ,and letter carrier instead of mailman. A person does not need to be a man to fight a fire or to deliver the mail.
Most people think that these changes are good. They give all people an equal chance to be happy and to do what they want to do with their lives. Fathers like to tell
- 19 -

参考答案
一.听力1-5 BCACB 6-10 BCCAA 11-15 BBABC 16-20 ACCBC
二、阅读理解
A.答案:BDB组
解析:(21)推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“I never had friends at school because of my colourful clothes I always wore.”可知,作者没有朋友是因为自己的穿着,因此可推断出其他的孩子认为她穿着奇怪。
(22)细节理解题。根据第二段“It wasn't that I disliked school,but I wasn't a big fan of the kids at school.”可知,雷切尔在学校里不太受欢迎。
(23)推理判断题。结合倒数第二段“...you have to be friends with people that look lonely too.Then,no one will ever be lonely in this world...”可知答案为B 项。
B答案:DABBC组
解析:(24)确认该题答案的信息为第三段末句:A person does not need to be a man to fight a fire or to deliver the mail.
(25)全文论述了今日美国学校男生与女生的平等,同时也就暗示了昔日并非如此。第一段中的 “no longer”、最后一段中的 “changes” 等词也是确定该答案的重要依据。
(26)根据前面的 “letter carrier”,可推断 “mailman” 为“邮递员”。
(27)根据语境,“They” 指上文中的 “these changes”。
(28)确认该题答案的信息为第四段首句:Most people think that these changes are good.
C.答案:DCDA组
解析:(29)主旨大意题。由第一段第二句“You do not want to...tip the wrong person.”以及第二段的内容可知给小费时,不要给错了对象,故选D项。
(30)细节理解题。由第三段“Do you invite your friend to the restaurant?Then you pay the bill.Does your friend invite you?Your friend pays.”可知谁请客就由谁付小费,故选C项。
(31)推理判断题。由最后一段第二、三句“If you work in Britain or America,your boss could be a man or a woman.There are increasing numbers of women in important positions in politics,law,medicine and in the business world.”
- 19 -
可知妇女的地位得到了很大的改变,因此D项正确。
(32)细节理解题。由本文倒数第二句“But it is still polite for men to open doors for women and to ask them to go first.”可知男同志自己先走是不礼貌的,故选A项。
D.答案:BCCA组
解析:(33)推理判断题。由第一句的“£54.99”可知此处用了英镑表价钱,可推出这个故事极有可能发生在英国,故选B项。
(34)推理判断题。由前文登了广告可知,店主是希望卖自行车的,当有人来看自行车,这意味着又有一辆自行车可能被卖出,故选C项。
(35)细节理解题。由倒数第二段“But that's not honest.”可知他认为这是不诚实的,也就是说他认为自己被欺骗了,故选C项。
七选五语篇导读:充足的睡眠有许多好处,本文介绍了几种可能影响睡眠的睡前活动。
答案:FCBGA
解析:36.由空后的句子Here’re some pre-bedtime activities that could be hurting your chance of sleeping well.可知答案为F。
37.第一点建议主要是关于Exercise/Take a hot shower的,故C项最合适。
38. Watch TV/Surf the web和Screen有关,故答案为B。
39.主旨概括句。本段内容与睡前工作有关,故选G。
40.前一句说睡前读有趣的书会使入睡困难,A项与读书有关,建议睡前读无聊的书,故选A。
三、完形填空
答案:CADCB CBAAC DACBD BCACC组
解析:(41)根据后面的“有礼貌”排除A项,因为老师本身就有礼貌;她也不可能问孩子问题,因此B项也被排除;有问题问“朋友”而不是问“搭档”。
(42)提出的问题就需要对方“回答”。
(43)根据后面的whether“是否”可知,前面应该是“弄不准”的意思。
(44)孩子的叙述“听起来”不错。
(45)在疑问句中经常用any。句意为:有电脑会自己思考吗?
(46) I’m afraid not“恐怕不行”。
(47)根据短语搭配,只有get后接带to的不定式。
(48)母亲听了孩子的话说:我想知道你能不能给电脑设计一个程序,给我一些建议。
- 19 -
答案:A
(49)try out“试验”;try up“校准”;try to“尽力”。
(50)从下面的one of them...and the other可知是两块表。
(51) didn’t start“不走了”,强调结果;won’t start“无论如何也不走了(可能是经过了一番努力也不行)”。
(52) keep“留下”;repair“修理”;sell“卖掉”;wear“戴(表、花等)”。从上面的叙述来看:母亲给女儿提出了难题,即两块表,一块走得快,一块不走。母亲想让电脑告诉她留下哪一块表。
(53)mind后接动名词;B、D项不合题意;care后接不定式。
(54)这样的事要问电脑简直是怪事。
(55)此句仍在谈论电脑。
(56)从文章开始交代Jenny喜欢和电脑打交道的工作可知,是下班回来。
(57)从语法判断即可。the one后面是定语从句。
(58)母亲想知道原因,因此问道:为什么留下那块不走的?
(59)say“叙述”;speak“讲话”;tell“告诉”;talk“谈话”。这块手表每十二小时告诉一次正确时间,tell的特殊用法之一,用于提供信息。
(60)和前面是转折关系。而另一块每五年告诉一次正确时间。
四.语法填空
语篇导读:迈克给莎莉打电话,征求有关考前焦虑方面的意见。
答案及解析:
1.truth 根据语境可知,此处填提示词的名词形式。to tell (you) the truth意为“说实话”。
2.the 根据语境可知,此处应该填定冠词the。
3.why 分析句子结构可知,此处应该填一个连接词,引导表语从句,上句是我给你打电话的原因,故填连接副词why。
4.suggestions 此处应该填一个名词,作动词have的宾语,故填提示词的名词形式,用复数。
5.offered 此处应该填谓语动词,根据last year可知用一般过去时。
6.anxiety 此处填提示词的名词形式,作宾语。
7.with “与……保持联系” be in contact with...是固定搭配。
- 19 -
8.when 分析句子结构可知,此处应该填一个连词,引导时间状语从句。
9.better 根据语境可知,此处应该填提示词的比较级形式。
10.it 此处应该填代词it,表示“情况”。
五、短文改错
8.答案:第一句:usually→usual
第二句:while→when
第二句:hear→heard
第三句:happened→happening
第三句:shocking→shocked
第三句:peoples→people
第四句:去掉had

范文
June 8
Dear Peter,
I’m glad to receive your letter asking for my advice on how to learn Chinese well.
Here are a few suggestions.First,it is important to take a Chinese course,as you’ll be able to learn from the teacher and practice with your fellow students.Then,it also helps to watch TV and read books,newspapers and magazines in Chinese whenever possible.
Besides,it should be a good idea to learn and sing Chinese songs,because by doing so you’ll learn and remember Chinese characters more easily.You can also make more Chinese friends.They will tell you a lot about China and help you learn Chinese.
Try and write to me in Chinese next time.
Best wishes!
Yours,
