41、or generations to come.”可知，由于我们每个人都依赖水来维持生命，我们有责任更多地了解节约用水，以及如何为子孙后代保护水源的纯净和安全。由此可知，第一段主要讲的是每个人都应该学会节约用水。故选B。【13题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“ Even though our need for fresh water is always increasing because of population and industry growth, the supply we have stays the same. Even though water eventually retu
42、rns to the Earth through the water cycle, its not always returned to the same spot, or with the same quantity and quality. By reducing the amount of water we use, we can better protect against future drought years.”可知，尽管由于人口和工业的增长，我们对淡水的需求一直在增加，但我们的供应量却保持不变。尽管水最终通过水循环返回地球，但它并不总是返回到同一地点，或以相同的数量和质量返回。
43、通过减少用水量，我们可以更好地抵御未来干旱年份，这说明节约用水会减少干旱和缺水的影响，由此可知画线词词义为“减少”，故选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“It builds safe and beautiful communities. Hospitals, gas stations, health clubs, gyms, and restaurants all require large amounts of water to provide services for communities. ”可知，节约用水建立了安全和美丽的社区。医院、加油站、健身俱乐部、健身房和餐馆都需要大量
44、的水来为社区提供服务。由此可推知，第5段提到这些服务，主要是来说明节约用水对我们的社区有益。故选D。【15题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是第一段最后一句“Below are some of the main reasons why its important to conserve water.（以下是一些为什么节约用水很重要的原因）”可知，本文主要介绍了为什么我们要在日常生活中节约用水；结合选项可知，选项C. Why Should We Conserve Water in Our Daily Life?( 为什么我们要在日常生活中节约用水?)符合题意。故选C。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分

79、y【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者去饭店吃饭，虽然是作者先到的，但是作者之后到的人却先吃上了点的饭菜。这使我心理很不平衡，当服务生向作者说明真相后，作者顿悟，等得久是因为大厨们在为作者忙碌，好饭菜需要时间来准备。后来作者也发现饭店的老板竟然是自己失散已久的老朋友，他想给作者一个惊喜。【41题详解】考查可数名词的数。句意：大约二十分钟后，一群年轻人走了进来，点了他们的食物。基数词 twenty后需接可数名词复数。故填minutes。【42题详解】考查代词。句意同上。空处需用名词性物主代词theirs指代their food作动词ordered的宾语。故填theirs。【43题详解】考查时态。
80、句意：我甚至听到其中一个吹嘘他是如何与餐厅里的每个人建立联系的。根据文章第一句时间状语Last night和空后was connected可知，空处谓语动词需用一般过去时，表示昨晚发生的事情。故填heard。【44题详解】考查介词。句意：您的菜是特点的，由厨师长亲自烹制。分析句子结构可知，空处需用介词by，表示动作的执行者。故填by。【45题详解】考查被动语态和主谓一致。句意：他们点的菜都是仓促准备的，所以他们都是先上的。由空后“they were served first”可知，空处谓语动词需用一般过去时，因为菜是被准备，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时的被动语态：was/were done，
81、主语是复数 orders，be动词需用were。故填were prepared。【46题详解】考查副词。句意：我冷静下来，耐心地等待着。空处需用副词作状语修饰动词waited，patient的副词为patiently “耐心地”。故填patiently。【47题详解】考查冠词。句意：我不知道的是，这家餐馆的老板碰巧是我失散已久的老朋友。空处需用不定冠词a/an泛指一个老朋友，old是以元音音素开头的单词，所以空处需用不定冠词an。故填an。 【48题详解】考查动词不定式句意：当我走进餐馆时，她看见了我，决定给我一个惊喜。decide to do sth.决定做某事，固定搭配，所以空处需用动词不
82、定式to give作宾语。故填to give。【49题详解】考查形容词。句意：另一桌的人都惊呆了。空处需用形容词作表语，主语是人，所以空处需用ed形容词shocked“震惊的”，作表语。故填shocked。【50题详解】考查宾语从句。句意：突然，他们开始发牢骚，问为什么他们得不到那样的服务和饭菜。空处需用连接引导宾语从句，空后句子成分完整，所以空处需用连接副词或连接词引导宾语从句，根据句意可知，此处表示得不到那样服务和饭菜的原因，所以空处需用连接副词why引导宾语从句。故填why。第四部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)51. 假定英语课上老师要求

86、a 7. knowledgesknowledge 8. showedshows 9. howwhat 10. safelysafe【解析】【分析】本文是记叙文，主要描述了祖父的工作。【51题详解】考查动名词。put和control由and连接，是并列关系，besides是介词，后面需要加动词的ing形式，故将put改为putting。【52题详解】考查不定代词。句意：他还做了很多其它的事情，根据句意，此处表示“其它的”，another表示“另一个”，other表示“其他的”，故将another改为other。【53题详解】考查介词。be ready for表示“为做准备”，是固定搭配，故将to
87、改为for。【54题详解】考查介词。learn about sth表示“了解，学习”，是固定搭配，故将of改为about。【55题详解】考查动词原形。help sb do sth表示“帮助某人做某事”，此处动词需要用原形，故将did改成do。【56题详解】考查冠词。job是可数名词，此处表示一份工作，需要用冠词a，故在has后面加a。【57题详解】考查不可数名词。knowledge 是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故将knowledges改为knowledge。【58题详解】考查时态。根据前面的now，可知此处开始描述现在发生的事情，所以用一般现在时态，故将showed改为shows。【59题详解
88、】考查连词。He tells everyone how to prevent fires and how to do if there is a fire and how to be safely. 本句前半句是2个并列宾语，宾语是“疑问词+不定式”，第二个宾语do缺少宾语而不是状语，根据句意，用疑问词what而不是how，故将how改为what。【60题详解】考查形容词。前面有be动词，be动词需要将形容词做宾语，故将safely改为safe。第二节书面表达(满分25分)52. 假定你是李华，和留学生Susan约好昨晚去看电影，但你因故没能赴约。请你用英语给她写一封邮件，内容包括：1. 表示
