参考答案
Ⅰ.1.C 考查名词辨析。表示某国人的名词单复数规则:中日不变,英法变,其余s加后面。German德国人,复数形式后面加s;American美国人,复数形式也是后面加s。故选C。
2.D 考查数词辨析。hundred、thousand等数词前有数词修饰时用原形,其前若无数词修饰,该词变复数形式,其后接of,如:thousandsof表示“数千”的。故选D。
6
3.C 根据“Itisreallyinamess.”可知,此处表示要清理房间,故选C。
4.B
5.B 根据“Waitaminute,please.”可知,此处指要查一下,故选B。
6.D 考查副词辨析。A项意为“几乎”;B项意为“深深地”;C项意为“清楚地”;D项“特别,尤其”。“ inwinter.” 是对“It’sbeautiful”的补充,此处应用表示更进一步关系的词,D项符合题意。
7.C 前一空用形容词作定语,后一空用名词作宾语。true 意为“真实的”,为形容词;truthful 意为“诚实的”,为形容词;truth 意为“真相”,为名词。故选C。
8.B 由时间状语“lastyear”可知第一空用一般过去时; 第二空表示曾经去过两次,用现在完成时。 故选B。
Ⅱ.(i)[主旨大意] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了浙江一所中学为了让男生们强壮身体,开设了攀岩课。攀岩能锻炼孩子们的毅力。刚开始校长担心学生们不喜欢,可是后来学生们坚持了下来。

10.B 11.A 12.D
13.A 考查形容词辨析。necessary必要的;modern现代的;lively 活泼的,生动的;special独特的。此处指上文所列出的几项是必要的条件。故选A。
14.D
15.C 考查短语动词辨析。putdown放下;putoff 推迟;tryout 实验;tryon试穿。根据下文中的“…takeextrarockclimbingclassestwiceaweekorjoinarockclimbingclubtolearnmore.”可知,在体育课上学生们能一个月进行两次攀岩。故选C。
16.B 考查副词辨析。also意为“也”,用于肯定句中;too意为“也”,用于肯定句尾;either意为“也”,用于否定句尾;neither意为“也不”。本句为肯定句,且设空在中间,因此选B。
17.D 18.B 19.C 20.A 21.D
22.B 考查形容词短语辨析。beproudof以……而骄傲;beafraidof害怕……;becarefulof 小心……;betiredof 厌倦……。根据下文信息“我现在6秒内爬到顶端”可以推知,“我”不再和过去一样恐高,表达过去的一种恐高的心理。故选B。

(ii)24.When 25.voice 26.magazine’s 27.courage28.activity
29.toget 30.afford 31.had 32.difficult 33.really
Ⅲ.[主旨大意] 本文是一篇议论文。短文表达了在现今社会中能有自己的看法、做出自己的决定是重要的。心理学家说,如果我们听到某一观点足够多的次数后,或者此观点是某个我们尊敬的人所说,我们或许会相信此观点。不加思考地在网上传播错误的消息的例子比比皆是。如果我们多花点时间思考一下我们所读到、听到的东西,

并形成自己的观点,我们就会成为一名更加有思维、更加独立、更加有创造性的人。
34.C 主旨大意题。通读短文及首段主题句“Inourculture,theabilitytomakeone’sowndecisionsisimportant.”和尾段的主题句“Hopefully,wecanlearntoexperienceandenjoythe‘discomfortofthought’ andformourownopinions.”可知,本文是想告诉人们应该有自己的思想。
35.A 词义猜测题。由下文“Somepeoplebelievewhatevertheyreadandthensharethestorywithoutthinkingaboutthefacts.”可知,人们没有对事实进行思考,就相信他们所读的东西,并且将此东西进行分享,可推测出人们所读到的消息应当是一些不真实的消息,因此fake应意为untrue。
36.D 推理判断题。读最后一段可知本段讲述了我们应如何拥有自己的观点。根据本段的主题句“Ifwejuststopforamomenttothinkaboutwhatwereadandhear,andformourownopinions,…”可知,只有我们对所读到的东西进行思考时,我们才能够有自己的观点。故选D。
37.B 推理判断题。通读本文可知作者是想告诉人们不要不加思考地传播一些消息,而是应对我们所听到、读到的东西进行思考,从而形成自己的观点、看法。因此此文应是出自有关教育类的书籍。故选B。
