BSurfing.CScuba diving. DRock climbing.C推理判断题。根据Scuba diving中提到“Diving is not popular with British people.The challenges of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough.”潜水不受英国人的欢迎，因为水太冷且水质不清澈，故选C项。BSports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature.However，whether you are on the mountains，in the waves，or on the grassland，you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resourcehungry.Golf，as you may know，eats up not only large areas of countryside，but also tons of water.Besides，all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition.This causes major environmental effects.For example，in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain，golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environmentfriendly sports.Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.You dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free，power walking can also keep you fit.If you walk regularly，it will be good for your heart and bones.Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious，sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up，you can make it greener by using environmentfriendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be “green gyms”They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers.Members of green gyms play sports outdoors，in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership.And best of all，its free.【语篇解读】本文属于说明文。文章介绍了不同的运动对于环境的影响不一样，并且呼吁人们从事绿色运动。4Which of the following does the author most probably support?ACycling around a lake.BMotor racing in the desert.CPlaying basketball in a gym.DSwimming in a sports center.A推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Members of green gyms play sports outdoors，in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership.And best of all，its free.”可以得出沿湖骑车是最绿色的，因为免费，不需要耗费太多的资源，故选A。5What do we know about golf from the passage?AIt is popular in Portugal and Spain.BIt causes water shortages around the world.CIt pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.DIt needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.D推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Golf，as you may know，eats up not only large areas of countryside，but also tons of water.Besides，all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition.”可以得出高尔夫球运动的害处，故选D。6The author uses power walking as an example mainly because Ait is an outdoor sportBit improves our healthCit uses fewer resourcesDit is recommended by expertsC细节理解题。根据第三段中的“You dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse.”可以得出本题答案，故选C。7The author writes the passage to Ashow us the function of major sportsBencourage us to go in for green sportsCdiscuss the major influence of popular sportsDintroduce different types of environmentfriendly sportsB作者意图题。根据最后一段中的“Whatever sport you take up，you can make it greener by using environmentfriendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.”可以得出作者的写作意图是呼吁人们从事绿色运动，故选B。CFive years ago，when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students.I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said：“Make something out of the Tinkertoys.You have 45 minutes todayand 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start.They waited to see what the rest of the class would do.Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided.Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time.His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.I was delighted at the presence of such a student.Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work.His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downsideI ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking.Without fail one would declare, “But Im just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when youre asleep？”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.”The student would tell something wildly imaginative.Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads.“Thats pretty creative.Who does that for you？”“Nobody.I do it.”“Reallyat night，when youre asleep？”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime，in class，okay？”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作为一名教师，作者用一种玩具培养孩子们的创造性和动手能力，其中一个孩子的创造性引起了作者的注意。8The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to Aknow more about the studentsBmake the lessons more excitingCraise the students interest in artDteach the students about toy designA细节理解题。从题干的in order to判断，本题询问作者在课堂使用这种玩具的目的，第一段提到“as a test.to find out something about my students”，由此可知作者的目的是更多地了解自己的学生，因此选A项。B项“让课程更激动人心”，C项“提高学生们对艺术的兴趣”，D项“教学生玩具设计”，均不是作者的目的。9What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?AHe liked to help his teacher.BHe preferred to study alone.CHe was active in class.DHe was imaginative.D推理判断题。第三段作者描述这个学生，说他特别有创造性(was an exceptionally creative mind at work)，因此选D项。imaginative有想象力的。作者在该段说他的创造力能够感染班上其他学生，这让作者意外地有了一个教学帮手，没有说他喜欢帮助老师(A项错)，文章没有提到他更喜欢独自一个人学习(B项错)，也没有提到他在课堂上非常活跃(C项错)。10What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?AMistake. BDrawback.CDifficulty. DBurden.B词义猜测题。前文提到作者很喜爱这个学生，说这个学生的创造性能够感染其他学生，下文说“冒着失去那些有不同的思考风格的学生的风险”，根据语境前后的对比判断，downside的含义应该是drawback“不利条件，缺点”，而不是mistake“错误”，difficulty“困难”，burden“负担”。11Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?ATo help them to see their creativity.BTo find out about their sleeping habits.CTo help them to improve their memory.DTo find out about their ways of thinking.A推理判断题。根据题干信息可知本题考查的是文章后半部分对话的信息。作者鼓励学生讲述他们最有趣的梦，然后鼓励学生说，“白天在课堂上也试一试做梦，好吗？”由此推断，作者让学生讲述他们的梦，是为了帮助学生看到自己的创造性，因此选A项。B项“为了弄清楚他们的睡眠习惯”，C项“为了帮助他们提高记忆力”，D项“为了弄清楚他们的思维方式”，均不是作者的目的。DAll over the world people enjoy sports.Sports help to keep people healthy，happy and help them to live longer.Sports change with the season.People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of peoples work and everyday activities.The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life，they use them in their sports，too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them.Football, for example, has spread around the world.Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years，like running or jumping.Chinese boxing，for example，has a very long history.But basketball and volleyball are rather new.Neither one is a hundred years old yet.People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other，but after a game they often become good friends.Sports help to train a persons character(性格)One learns to fight hard but fight fair，to win without pride and to lose with grace (体面)【语篇解读】人们喜欢运动。运动使人们健康、快乐和长寿。冬季和夏季都有不同的运动形式，一些运动项目也具有悠久的历史。12According to this passage we know that .Apeople began to play about one hundred years agoBabout one hundred years ago people ran or jumped when they playedCbasketball has a longer history than volleyballDnot all the games have a long historyD细节理解题。从第四段可知，跑步、跳高等运动有上千年的历史，而篮球和排球是相当新的运动，都不到一百年，由此可知并不是所有的运动项目都历史悠久，D项正确。13The writer didnt tell us in this passage that Abasketball was invented in AmericaBsports change with the seasonCgames and sports often grow out of peoples work and everyday activitiesDfootball is played all over the worldA细节理解题。由第一段末句可知B项正确；由第二段第二句可知C项正确；由第三段第二句可知D项正确；A项文章没有提及。故选A项。14People all over the world enjoy sports because .Asports are interestingBsports help to keep people healthy，happy and to live longerCsports help to train ones characterDall of the aboveD细节理解题。第一段和最后一段相呼应，概括了运动的好处：有趣，使人健康快乐，延年益寿，锻炼人的性格。D项回答全面。15Whats the writers attitude towards the sports?APositive. BNegative.CNeutral. DWe have no idea.A观点态度题。positive积极的，肯定的；negative消极的，否定的；neutral中立的。作者在文章中讲了运动的诸多好处，自然对运动持肯定态度，所以选A。.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Different CulturesThe cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 16 The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India.Both of the two cultures are developed by riversthe Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 17 When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plainthe Mesopotamian Civilization.This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 18 Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters.When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over, the Atlantic Ocean.So the American culture doesnt distinguish from the European culture a lot. 19 Take the language system for example.In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system.Other causes like human race difference count as well.But whats more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries.So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost nointerference (干扰) from the other.The differences are everywhere. 20 But different cultures make the world of the 21st century more colorful.The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障碍) to the civilization of human being.It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.ALet us work together to keep a variety of culture.BOne important thing is to learn about other cultures.CAnd these two are wellknown as the base of the European culture.DAt the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.EThis is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.FThey helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.GThey are obvious and affect peoples ways of thinking and their views of the world.【语篇解读】本文介绍东西方文化的起源和发展以及它们之间的差异。16E根据上文提到“The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot.”东西方文化彼此是有差异的，故选E，这是因为整体上是两个完全不同的文化体系。17F根据上文提到“Both of the two cultures are developed by riversthe Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in

Rome.”后来这种文化发展成为古代的希腊文化与古代的罗马文化与C项这两种文化以欧洲文化为基础相连接。19D根据下文提到“Take the language system for example.In the East，most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system.”以语言系统为例，在东方，许多语言属于象形文字，而西方的语言以拉丁语为基础，故选D，与此同时，这些差异增加了文化的不同。20G根据上文提到的“The differences are everywhere”(这些差异无处不在)故选G，他们是很明显的，影响着人们思考世界的方法和观点。.完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)Everyone
