enjoy the wonderful sunshine.Suddenly,I noticed that the house near mine had been sold.An elderly lady was in front of the door,with some beautiful flowers beside her.I walked to her.She looked to be in her early eighties and had the prettiest white hair.“Hi!My name is Karmen,” I said smiling brightly at the old lady.She smiled back and said,“Hello,Karmen.Im Kitty.” Her voice was very strong for someone at her age.Later,I learned that she was alone and had no family or relatives to help her.From that day on,I often visited her and helped her with her housework and sometimes she gave me some delicious food.A year passed,and I considered her to be one of my best friends.One day,I walked over for my morning visit and knocked on the door,but there was no answer.I knocked again,and she still didnt turn up.So I let myself in,using the key she had given me.I checked her living room and then her kitchen.I finally went into her bedroom,and she was lying peacefully on her bed.Beside her there were two notes.One was her will(遗嘱),which said all that she had would be given to me.The other was a thank-you note.I went to her bedside and cried sadly.Though several years has gone by,I still miss her deeply.Whenever I look at the beautiful flowers in front of her house,I remember the wonderful friendship we had.1Through visiting the old lady,the author learned that the old lady .A.disliked all her relativesB.had no one to look after herC.didnt want to live with her familyD.was looking for someone to look after her答案B解析根据第二段中的“Later,I learned that she was alone and had no family or relatives to help her.”可知,没有人来照顾她。所以本题选B项。2What can we learn from the passage?A.The old lady was not kind.B.The author didnt have any good friends.C.The old lady didnt know how to make food.D.The author got along very well with the old lady.答案D解析根据短文第二、三段描述可知,作者和这个老人相处得很好,以至于最后将财产都给了作者。3What does “turn up” mean in Paragraph 3?A.appearB.leaveC.tryD.change答案A解析由下文描述可知,此处指的是这个老人还没有出来开门,没有出现,故turn up与appear意思相同。所以本题选A项。4In order to thank the author,the old lady decided to.A.give the author her favourite flowersB.let the author know she was her best friendC.give the author a key to her houseD.leave all that she had to the author答案D解析根据第三段中的“One was her will,which said all that she had would be given to me.The other was a thank-you note.I went to her bedside and cried sadly.”可知本题选D项。BTake a look at teenagers around,dressed in baggy-pants,drinking soft drinks such as coke,reading Japanese cartoons.Whether you are in Beijing,Wuhan or Hong Kong,you will get the same impression.But should we copy others or should we maintain our differences?It sounds convenient that people around the world speak the same language,dress in the same style,eat the same food and play the same games.If the world was like this,you wont feel strange in any corner of the world.But just imagine living in such a strange world.How dull and colourless it would be!Different kinds of food that people can taste,the colorful and fashionable clothes that we wear and different languages we speak are all part of the different cultures that our ancestors left us.These differences represent their creativity and talent.And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily lives.When you travel to other places,you want to see different things.When you talk to foreigners you expect to listen to interesting stories.These differences in culture make life colourful.But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization takes effect and many different cultures are disappearing.In most big cities around the world people wear the same clothes.Fast food stores are everywhere.Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives.The colours of our life are disappearing.There is a joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colourful life.So lets take action to protect our colourful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white.Its not difficult.Learning some folk songs,trying on a traditional clothing and even eating local food instead of going to KFC can help.And Im sure you will enjoy it.5The passage is written to .A.explain cultural differencesB.convince readers to maintain cultural differencesC.predict the future of globalizationD.show some cultural phenomena(现象)答案B解析这篇短文主要讨论了我们是该模仿他人还是保持自己的文化差异,并建议我们保持自己的文化差异。故选B项。6The author starts the argument by .A.mentioning certain cultural phenomena B.mentioning his view at the very beginningC.mentioning the opposite view at the very beginningD.giving examples of cultural differences 答案A解析根据短文第一段描述,可知作者首先列出了一些现象,继而才提出问题,故选A项。7The underlined word “shrinking” probably means “”.A.expandingB.disappearingC.becoming smallerD.growing in number 答案C解析由下文的“into a small village as globalization”可知此处指的是整个世界正在变小,故选C项。8The author talks of all the following cultural phenomena except .A.foodB.clothingC.languageD.architecture 答案D解析这篇短文主要讨论了人们在饮食、服装及语言方面的文化差异,没有提及建筑上的差异,故选D项。C(导学号57140043)If the child has been brought up in a loving,openly communicative environment,the relationship with parents would be a strong one.It is only when there are ongoing troubles in the relationship between parents and the child that there is a breakdown in communication.When parents are going through difficulties in their own relationship,the child sometimes develops guilt.The child can hold himself or herself responsible for the breakdown in relationship between the parents.This needs to be explained to the child who wont speak out this guilt.The teenage years are emotionally sensitive years to the outside world.For the first time the child realizes his or her position in society.Friends suddenly become more important than parents.It is during this time that the relationship between children and parents is tested.If the bond with parents is strong,the child will not be influenced by the drug and alcohol culture.If the bond is weak,the child will end up with problems.During such times,one of the effective ways to deal with the problems is to discuss the problems with the child.As parents,you will need to discuss the results of each choice and then leave the final decision to the child.Forcing parental will on children is counterproductive(适得其反的),especially at this age.Forcing parental will at this time will stop communicating and then you will not know what is going on in their life.Whatever the problem is,the child need never be made to feel lonely.The moment that happens,the possibility of serious self-harm is raised.Any problem at this age can be dealt with by a flexible way by parents.Discuss things calmly.Leave the decision to the individual.Make yourself available for any help or support that the child hopes for.The child will feel comfortable when allowed the freedom of choice.9If parents have trouble with their relationship,the child .A.will communicate with their parentsB.will be responsible for the troubleC.will feel guilty about the troubleD.will help the parents recover答案C解析根据第二段中的“When parents are going through difficulties in their own relationship,the child sometimes develops guilt.”及本段描述可知选C项。10Which of the following ways can help solve the childrens problem?A.Letting the children be.B.Discussing it with the children.C.Forcing parental will on them.D.Meeting their demands.答案B解析根据倒数第二段中的“During such times,one of the effective ways to deal with the problems is to discuss the problem with the child.”可知选B项。11The underlined word “Forcing” can be replaced with the word “”.A.WeakeningB.PressingC.UnderstandingD.Losing答案B解析由下文可知,此处指:强加父母意志在孩子身上是适得其反的。故选B项。12What is the text mainly about?A.The bond between parents and children.B.Causes of teenagers problems.C.Teenagers problems and solutions.D.Always letting the children decide.答案C解析这篇短文主要描述了青少年成长中的一些问题及其解决办法,故选C项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(导学号57140044)Health

I always feel better when I am with friends than when I am alone.When I am with my friends,I always laugh.Laughing is also an important part of health.It is good to stay with my friends.By eating properly and exercising regularly,I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy.By spending time with my friends,I can keep my mind as well as my body happy.These things sound easy to do,but not many people can manage them.17A.On the other hand,doing exercise is very important.B.Some people appear fat because they often eat too much.C.I think a strong will is necessary if we want to keep healthy.D.I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruit which are full of vitamins.E.But if our health was taken away,it is certain that we would die.F.There are some people who like staying alone,but
