Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2017·广东实验中学月考)
Parents will do anything for their children. Whether it would be the food, clothes, or the place they live in, parents will always make sure their children have the best of everything. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school or homeschooling.
Fortunately for parents, there are a variety of different strategies that they can take in order to increase their child's overall intelligence. According to Ross A．Thompson, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis, a child's brain will actually reach 90% of its full size by the time they start kindergarten.
Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brain stem, the lower section of the brain. Moreover, children that learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue it when they are older. And numerous studies show that a wellbalanced meal is essential for a child's mental as well as physical health. Some other researchers recommended that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three to four years of age is the perfect time and that any age under four would work perfectly fine for a child's brain development.
The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children could have an

这篇短文告诉我们：如果你是一个很平常的学生，那么怎样才能变成一个更好的学生，使自己的学习成绩提高？这篇短文中给了我们很多好的建议。
1．G 根据下一句A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems. 说明很满的时间安排不一定能解决所有的问题，一定要有娱乐的时间。故G正确。
2．A 根据空格后两句Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room. Free from everything but study materials.在你房间里找个地方，比如书桌或者只是一个角落，这地方除了学习用品，其他什么都别放。可知上句的意思是：环顾房子，找一个适合学习的地方。故选A。
3．D 根据上句Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say.利用上课时间听老师说的一切。可知下句应该说：真正地在课堂上听意味着以后更少的工作。故选D。
4．C 根据前一句If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material.说明预习的重要性，预习以后会让我们的学习更高效。故C项内容符合上下文。
5．F 根据上句They help you remember your new knowledge.他们帮助你记得你的新知识。空格下句：所以不要太担心。可知此空的意思是：如果你不通过一个测试，这个世界不会结束。故选F。

答案与解析
短文讲述了Mr. Brown第一次来北京来长城游览的经历。
1．who 考查关系代词。句中包含定语从句，先行词是Mr. Brown指人，在定语从句中作主语，故填关系代词who。
2．first 考查数词。此处表示“第一次”要用序数词，故填first。
3．amazed 考查形容词。用在系动词was后作表语，amazed“吃惊的”，修饰人，故填amazed。
4．beauty 考查名词。此处由the修饰后面用名词，指“长城的美”，故填名词beauty。

Dear Tim，
I'm so excited and happy to hear that you're coming to China. Since your trip is scheduled for the middle of July, time is not problem for me. That's because I would be having my summer holiday at that time.
I've been very busy recent. I've been prepared for the coming entrance exam, that is vital for me and my future life. Last week, I attended an English speech intending for high school students all over the province and I have won the first prize. However, I've always dreamt of having the opportunity to travel in Englishspeaking countries like yours to practice and improve our English, as well make friends with people from other countries.
I am looking forward to seeing you.
Yours,
Li Hua

答案
Good_afternoon,_every_one!
The topic of my speech today is “Being a good partner”. Cooperation is a good way for us to learn from each other as well as to improve our friendship. Successful cooperation can save us a lot of time and energy.
We will be lucky enough to find someone we like to cooperate with,

which will make us feel very happy and long to continue the cooperation. However, it can be difficult team up with someone we dislike. In this case, we'd better learn to put up with some of his shortcomings and try to discover his advantages.
How can we become a good partner? As for me, first of all, we should try to listen to others' opinions. If he makes mistakes, we'd better try to point them out in a polite way.
Thank_you_for_your_listening!
