Once she was nearly eaten by a shark.But she swam on and on. Round the tip of Africa and into the Indian Ocean, she was amazed by the different shapes and sizes and colors of other fishes. And on she swam through the wide Pacific. Then she turned north and finally she swam home into her own North Sea.All her friends and relations gathered around. They had a big feast and offered her the very best food they could find, but the herring said, “Ive swum around the whole world, and Ive eaten more wonderful dishes than you could possibly imagine.” And she refused to eat anything. Then her friends and relations asked her to come home and live with them. But she refused.“Ive been everywhere and that old rock is too dull and small for me.”And she went off and lived on her own.When the breeding (繁殖) season came, she refused to join in the spawning (产卵), saying, “I know how many fishes there are in the world. I cant be interested in herrings anymore.”Finally, one old herring swam up to her and said, “Listen, if you dont spawn with us, some herring eggs will not turn into healthy young herrings. If you dont live with your family, youll make them sad and if you dont eat, youll die.”But the herring said, “I dont mind. Ive seen everything there is to see, and now I know everything there is to know.”“I dont know，” said the old herring. “But there may be something.”Just then, a fishing boat came by, and all the herrings were caught in a net and taken to market that day. A man bought the herring and ate her for his supper, and he never knew that she had swum right around the world and had seen everything there was to see, and knew everything there was to know.语篇解读本文是记叙文。一条鲱鱼环游全球之后认为自己见识了整个世界，没想到最后却落入渔网被人买走当作晚餐吃掉。8How can we describe the herrings trip around the world?A.

Then he thought someone might _17_ to read his stories. He sent one to a publisher, but he did not _18_ his name on it. This story was printed, and so were several _19_. The publisher did not know who wrote them, so Charles did not _20_ any money for them. But he did have the satisfaction of _21_ them in print.Then another _22_ company hired Dickens _23_ stories about London. He started to write The Pickwick Papers, _24_ the adventures of Mr. Pickwick and his friends _25_ they travelled around London. It was easy _26_ Charles to write these stories because he knew so _27_ about London. The Pickwick Papers, sold _28_， and Charles was _29_poor again.Dickens was greatly _30_ by the success of The Pickwick Papers. He realized that people enjoyed _31_ what he had written and that his writing skill _32_ his living. During _33_ five years he wrote _34_ stories. He wrote about real people and situations _35_ he knew.16A. pleasure B. family C. friends D. school17A. refuse B. decide C. be willing D. be unwilling18A. send B. get C. design D. sign19A. others B. the others C. another D. else20A. accept B. receive C. ask for D. pay21A. hearing B. looking C. reading D. seeing22A. publisher B. published C. publishing D. selling23A. write B. to write C. for writing D. writing24A. describing B. described C. describes D. to describe25A. and B. otherwise C. till D. as26A. to B. with C. for D. like27A. many B. much C. greatly D. little28A. well B. good C. fine D. nice29A. always B. ever C. never D. forever30A. discouraged B. inspired C. disappointed D. struck31A. buying B. screaming C. permitting D. reading32A. made B. produced C. earned D. received33A. the next B. next C. following D. the past34A. a few B. a great many of C. few D. a large number of35A. whom B. that C. who D. which答案与解析16A结合下文可知狄更斯最开始写书是因为自己爱好，而不是为了家庭、朋友或学校。17Cbe willing to do sth.“愿意做某事”。他想可能有人会愿意读他写的故事，因此他才给出版商寄稿件。18D由后文“The publisher did not know who wrote them”可知狄更斯没在稿件上签名。19Aothers在此泛指其他的故事。20B因为出版社不知道稿件的作者是谁，狄更斯自然也不会收到“receive”稿费。21D看到他的书出版了，他很高兴。22Cpublishing company出版公司。23Bhire sb. to do sth.雇用某人做某事。24A动词的ing形式作定语，修饰前边的The Pickwick Papers。25Das引导时间状语从句，相当于when。匹克威克外传描述了匹克威克先生和他的朋友们在伦敦游历时的冒险经历。26C固定句式：It isadj.for sb. to do sth.“做某事对某人来说是的”。27Bknow so much about .“对很了解”。28A动词需用副词修饰，sell well“畅销”。29C既然他的书很畅销，想必他不用再受穷了。30B由于匹克威克外传写得成功，他受到了很大的鼓舞。discourage“打击；使失去勇气”； inspire“激励”； disappoint“使失望”； strike“打击”。31D人们喜欢读他的文章。32Cearn ones living“谋生”，他的写作技巧使他得以谋生。33Athe next时间段the following时间段，用于描述过去“接下来的时间里”。34Da large number of“大量的”，适合语境；a few“一些”，few“几乎没有”，不符合上下文语意；当修饰的名词前没有定冠词、形容词性物主代词等限定词时，many直接修饰名词，不用加of。35B空格处及后文作定语从句，先行词既有人又有物，且关系词在从句中作名词性成分，只能用that引导。第二节语法填空(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。There are many benefits of reading books. 36._ (fortunate), nowadays not a lot of people take the time to read them. Now please read on to learn the various benefits of reading books!1) It Feeds Your Mind.Obviously, reading books provides you 37._ new knowledge.

Seeing how words are used with your own eyes helps you put the 45._(inform) to memory better than by listening to a teacher discuss the points in class.答案与解析36Unfortunately由前后句句意该空所填词表达“不幸的是”，应填副词Unfortunately。37withprovide sb. with sth.“提供某人某物”。38a该空填不定冠词a，表泛指。39is该句缺少谓语；又因动名词作主语时，谓语应用单数形式，故该空填is。40solving根据设空前的介词to可知该空填动名词solving。41forfor too long“很长时间”。42Whenever/When句意：无论何时/当你在真实的生活中遇见一个相似的问题时，你的大脑就能把解决疑难的能力尝试一下。根据句意可知该空填whenever或when。43your该空填物主代词your修饰mind。44better根据上下文语境可知读书让人善辩，故该空应用比较级，填better。45information根据设空前的定冠词the可知该空填名词information。第三部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文改错(每小题1分，满分10分)英语课上，老师要求同桌同学相互修改作文。假设以下短文为你同桌所写，请你对其进行修改。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号()，并在此符号下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。2只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。3必须按答题要求做题，否则不给分。Dear Susan，I was excited when I received your letter and the English stamps.Thank you for send me the English stamps.
