49、happen.第二节书面表达(满分25分)假定你是李华,暑假就要来了,你打算参加学校组织的国际游学(Study Tour)活动,目的地是California。请给美国朋友Peter写封信表达你游学的目的,并希望得到他的建议。要点如下:1.开拓国际视野;2.体验不同教育;3.提高语言能力。注意:1.词数100左右;2可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 答案第一部分阅读理解 (共两节,满分40分)A【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。短文向要带孩子去洛杉矶旅游的游客介绍了一些可以游览的景点的相关信息。1B细节理解题。由第一段“Everyone is welcome to visit our city Los
50、 Angeles (LA)I am sure you can do many things in Los Angeles with your kids.”可判断出这篇文章是为那些打算和他们的孩子一起去洛杉矶旅行的人准备的。2A细节理解题。由Fun at the Beach中的“.a visit to the beach is one of the best things to do when in Los Angeles with your kids. While they enjoy themselves nearby,you can simply lie back and have a g
51、ood rest in the sun.”可知作者建议去海滩旅游,因为父母可以在那里休息。3A推理判断题。由Trip to Disneyland中的“A trip to the City of Angels with your little angels is incomplete without a visit to the Magic Kingdom.”可知,如果不去魔法王国,那么和你的小天使一起去天使之城的旅行是不完整的。魔法王国是沃尔特迪斯尼世界首个主题公园,而沃尔特迪斯尼位于洛杉矶内。所以判断出天使之城指的就是洛杉矶。洛杉矶被称为“天使之城”。B【语篇解读】这是一篇人物传记。短文主要
52、介绍了中国伟大的教育家,思想家孔子。4B推理判断题。由第一段“Although he lived over 2,000 years ago,people still remember and respect him for his contribution to the education today.”可知,尽管他生活在两千多年以前,但人们仍然记得并尊敬他对今天教育事业的贡献。所以判断出,今天我们还记得孔子,主要是因为他对教育有明智的想法和伟大的观点。5D细节理解题。由第二段“He visited many famous teachers and learned music,history,
53、poetry and sports.”可知,他拜访了许多著名的教师,学习了音乐、历史、诗歌和体育。所以,孔子从小就通过拜访许多著名的老师来学习音乐、历史、诗歌和体育。6C词义猜测题。由第三段“At that time only children from noble families could go to school,but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn”可知,那时,只有贵族家庭的孩子才能上学,但孔子认为,如果想学习,人人都应该上学。所以猜测出第三段中划线的“noble”的意思
54、与wealthy“富有的”最接近。7B细节理解题。由第五段“All study but no thinking makes people puzzled.All thinking but no study makes people lazy.可知,学而不思则罔,思而不学则殆。”第六段 “A person should be strict with himself,but be kind to others.”可知,严以律己,宽以待人。所以A,C,D选项都在短文中被提及。故B选项没有被提及。C【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍平衡饮食的定义和重要性。8D推理判断题。第一段首先提出问题,然后给
55、出答案,紧接着对答案进行阐述。文章其余部分都围绕该答案而展开,由此可推断,第一段提出问题是为了引出话题。9C词义理解题。根据第二段可知,不同的人对不同营养物的需求量也不同,即这个需求量在不同的人之间是有变化的。10C段落大意题。该段首句为主题句,再结合接下来的介绍可判断该段旨在介绍平衡饮食的重要性。11A推理判断题。根据末段首句可推断出,仅仅靠均衡饮食还不够,还需要与适量的睡眠和运动相结合。 D【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了除了埃及,中美洲的玛雅人和阿芝台克人也建造了金字塔,他们建造金字塔是为了他们的神和研究天空。12C细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Both Mayan and Aztec
56、 cultures built pyramids for their gods.”和第三段中的“The temples on top of the pyramids were also used as places for watching the skies.”可知,玛雅人和阿芝台克人建造金字塔是为了他们的神和研究天空,故C项正确。13A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Before Europeans came to the area in the 1500s,many of the cultures of the Americas,such as the Mayan and Aztec,had
57、 much knowledge about mathematics and astrology.”可知,在欧洲人来到这里之前,玛雅人和阿芝台克人就对数学和占星学有一定的了解,故A项正确。14A细节理解题。根据第一段中的“in what is today Central America and Mexico people also built pyramids?”可知,除了埃及,中美洲的人也建造了金字塔,故A项正确。15D文章出处题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了除了埃及,中美洲的玛雅人和阿芝台克人也建造了金字塔,他们建造金字塔是为了他们的神和研究天空,这一话题属于科学范畴,应该出自一本科学杂志,故D
58、项正确。【解题策略】文章出处题需要根据文章内容判断文章话题所属的范畴,进而推断文章来源,例如本篇第4题,通读全文可知,除了埃及,中美洲的玛雅人和阿芝台克人也建造了金字塔,他们建造金字塔是为了他们的神和研究天空,这一话题属于科学范畴,应该出自一本科学杂志而不是小说、广告或报纸。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分) 【语篇解读】本文为说明文,文章主要介绍让自己每天都快乐的方法。16E根据后文However,there are also bad days.可知前句与bad days 相反,应该是good days,所以E正确。17F根据本段的主题句smile often以及第一句面部表情影响
59、人的心情可知如果笑,就会开心快乐,所以F正确。18D根据后文The more you complain,the more annoyed you become.可知越抱怨,越容易恼怒,所以是停止抱怨,所以D正确。19C此段的主题是停止抱怨。根据前句To truly increase your longterm happiness,dont complain any longer.可知为了延长自己的幸福感,不要再抱怨了,所以接下来就是假设不抱怨会有什么样的感受,所以C正确。20G根据主题要实践感激。再根据前句The more you practice thankfulness,the more
60、you will find things to be grateful for in your life.可知越多实践感激就会发现有越多的事要感激,这会使你意识到生活有多么美好,所以G正确。第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 (共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲了一个非洲来的儿童Suzy被美国家庭收养,为让孩子了解美国生活,他们把孩子送进学校和美国孩子一起学习。但那些美国孩子却经常嘲笑她。一次偶然的机会,“我”发现了她的绘画才能,并把她介绍给艺术老师。艺术老师也认同她的绘画才能,让她帮自己制作才艺秀的海报。在才艺秀结束的时候,校长颁发给S
61、uzy一个特殊的奖项,同学们也认可和接纳了她。21A根据语境,这里是说“班里的男孩子会拿她开玩笑,然后就是哄堂大笑。而她也只好眼含泪水地假装看书。”22B这个非洲孤儿被美国家庭收养,美国家庭决定(认定)和美国孩子在一起才能让她学会美国的生活方式。decide这里是认定、断定的意思。23C根据上文叙述,这个女孩比同龄12岁的孩子都要瘦小,所以“我低头看着这个小小的女孩子,下决心无论如何都要帮助她”。24C我打算帮助这个女孩与大家融洽相处。fit in with适合,与一致。25D根据上文决定帮助小女孩与大家一致,必须寻找一个办法/方法。因为这里没有谈到什么方法,所以只能用笼统的方法way。26C
62、Suzy把书打开到火车图片那里。open.to把翻到,to是介词,表达“到地方”。27B由下文“why,its wonderful”可知,非常好,与此题选项中的perfect相近。28D根据后文第30题后的陈述“the talent show”我们知道这是一个才艺秀。29D根据上文陈述,Suzy在画火车,所以这里应该是“我”把她画的东西展示给艺术老师看。30C根据文章内容,这里是老师拿出一张“为才艺秀”做的海报。for意为“为”。31B由该空前面“more”和空后的“help”两个词可知,老师还需要更多的海报,但老师“没有足够的时间”,所以才请Suzy帮忙制作。32D上文已谈到,艺术老师想让S
63、uzy帮忙制作一些海报,所以,才艺秀当天应该到处都能看到Suzy制作的海报。33A才艺秀当天大家都表演了,还要颁发一个特殊的奖项给制作海报的人,因为制作海报原本不是才艺秀的内容。34A文中这句话的意思说“我们一个学生画了这些海报”,除了draw以外,我们还可以使用paint一词,表示绘画。35Bthat wellso well。 that可以作副词,当用that来修饰形容词时,其实是起一个强调作用。36Dsincenow that/because。37A因为努力画了这些海报,这位同学值得奖励。38B该空描写作者的思想活动,是意识到她从来没有拥有过什么,这些成就和别人的承认第一次让她意识到自己的
64、能力和重要。39C因为是外来的移民,没有融入大家的生活中,这次活动让大家看到了她拥有的东西。40A因为她画得好,得到校长表扬,才能得到大家认可,所以大家为她鼓掌。clap ones hands鼓掌。第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)【语篇解读】作者讲述了自己和一个朋友参加“巧克力节”的故事。41decided考查一般过去时。由A few weeks ago可知,decide所表示的动作发生在过去,故填decided。42called考查过去分词作定语的用法。设空处作后置定语修饰chocolate festival,因call与chocolate festival 之间是逻辑上的动
65、宾关系,故填called。43a考查不定冠词。have a fantastic time意为“度过一段美妙的时光”。44arrival考查名词。设空处作宾语,且前面有the限定,应用名词形式,故填arrival。45making考查动词ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处作介词of的宾语,故填making。46which考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句补充说明chocolate cups,且在从句中作主语,故填which。47worried 考查形容词作表语的用法。设空处作表语,表示“感到担心的”,故填worried。48to understand考查固定结构。“be形容词enough to
66、 do.”意为“到足以做”。49extremely考查副词。设空处作状语修饰friendly,故填extremely。50to考查介词。next to.意为“在旁边”。第三部分写作(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) 答案Recently I found that some classmates lead unhealthy life,such as staying up and not eating breakfast.Although we are under great pressure, it is necessary for us live a
