黑,

1.MyholidayplansarebecauseIdon'tknowhowmuchmoneyIshallhave.

A.impossibleB.uncertainC.incorrectD.unusual

【答案】B

【详解】句意：我的假期计划是不确定的，因为我不知道我将有多少钱。

考查形容词辨析。impossible不可能的;uncertain不确定的；incorrect不正确的;unusual不寻常的。根据

“becauseIdon'tknowhowmuchmoneyIshallhave.”可知，因为K知道会有多少钱，故而假期计划是不确定

的，故选B。

2.Look,theyarcHuawei'sTriplc-Folding（三折叠）Phone.Ihopetotryoutformyselfsomeday.

A.talkingB.chattingC.discussingD.saying

【答案】C

【详解】句意：看，他们正在讨论华为的三折叠手机。我希望有一天能亲自尝试一下。

考查动词辨析。talking谈论,不能直接跟宾语;chatting聊天，是不及物动词;discussing讨论,及物动词;

saying说，侧重说话的内容。根据"Huawei'sTriple-Folding（三折叠）Phone.”可,知，此处指的是在讨论新出

的手机，用及物动词discussing,故选C。

3.—Jack,youkeptspellingthewordswronginyourhomework,Idon,tthinkyoustudybefore.

—Sorry,MrsGreen.VWworkharder.

A.ascarelessasB.socarefulasC.ascarelesslyasD.socarefullyas

【答案】D

【详解】句意：——杰克，你在作业中一直拼错单词，我觉得你学习没有以前认真。——对不起，格林老

师，我会更加努力的。

考查原级比较和副词用法。careless粗心的；careful仔细的；carelessly粗心地；carefully认真地。根据“you

keptspellingthewordswronginycurhomework,Idon'tthinkyoustudy...before.,应该说“天如以前认

真"，用"notas/so…as”结构,修饰动词study用副词carefully,故选D”

4.Theshoesmaybeperfectforthatperson,buttheyrightatallforyou.

A.maybenotB.maynotbeC.cannotbeD.mustnotbe

【答案】B

【详解】句意：这些鞋子对那个人来说可能是完美的，但对你来说就可能不合适了。

考查情态动词用法。maybenot可能不，maybe为副词,在句中作状语；maynotbe可能不,在句中作谓语；

cannotbe不能是;mustnotbe禁止是。根据“butthey...rightatallforyou.“可知，空处表推测巨缺谓语，需

maynotbe。故选B。

5.“Foryou,itispriceless,“hesaid,“butfbrthemitisiftheycan'tsellitinthemarket.”

A.uselessB.usefulC.helplessD.helpful

【答案】A

【详解】句意：“对你来说，这是无价的，”他说，“但对他们来说，如果他们不能在市场上出售，那就没有

用了。”

考查形容词辨析。useless无用的；useful有用的;helpless无助的;helpful有帮助的。根据“butforthem”

可知此处表转折，因此是不能在市场上卖掉，这东西就是无用的。故选A。

6.Ithinkoneofthethingsthatmeasaparentistheeffect（影响）ofsomemobileApps,likeTikTok,

onchildren.

A.worryB.worriesC.isworriedaboutD.worrying

【答案】A

【详解】句意：我觉得作为父母让我担心的事情之一是某曲移动应用程序对孩子的影响，比如TikTok。

考查动词。worry使担心，三单形式是worries,现在分词是worrying；beworriedabout对担心。根据“I

thinkoneofthethingsthat...me”可知,此处指的“使我担心的是”，排除C。该句陈述事实,为一般现在

时，且设空处是定语从句的谓语，that是从句主语，指代”hethings”，所以从句谓语动词需用原形，故选

Ao

7.Notonlythetwinsbutalsotheirfatherinterestedinthosebooks.

A.seembeingB.seemsbeingC.seemtobeD.seemstobe

【答案】D

【详解】句意：不仅双胞胎，他们的父亲似乎也对那些书感兴趣。

考查主调一致。seemtodo似乎；beinterestedin对...感兴趣。根据"Notonlythetwinsbutalsotheirfather,,

可知，notonly...butalso连接并列主语时，谓语动词遵循''就近原则”，句中theirfather是单数，动词用seems；

seemiobe表示“似乎是”,符合句意。故选D。

8.Howmanyproblemsdidthosebeginnershaveinthefirstclassastar-shapedcardwithscissors?

A.cuttingoffB.cuttingoutC.tocutoffD.tocutout

【答案】B

【详解】句意：那些初学者在第一节课上用剪刀剪出一张星形W片遇到了多少问题？

考杳非谓语及动词短语。cutoff切断；cutout剪出；根据“astar-sh叩cdcardwithscissors”可知是剪出星形卡

片；haveproblemsdoingslh"做某事有问题”,故选B。

9.Thereis_"u"and_"s"intheword“useful”.

A.an,aB.a,anC.a,aD.an,an

【答案】B

【详解】句意：在useful“有用的”这个单词中有一个u和一个s。

本题考查冠词辨析。a—……，不定冠词，表示泛指，用于辅音音素开头的单词前；an-……,不定冠词，

用于元吾吾素开头的单词前。第一空处，根据句意可知，译为“一个”，且u的音标为/ju:/,以辅音音素开

头，用a,排除A和D；第二空处译为“一个“，且s的音标为/es/,以元音音素开头，用an,故选B。

10.—Well,ahamburger,twobananapies,andchips.Somethingtodrink,sir?

一butcoke,please.

A.SomethingB.NothingC.EverythingD.Anything

【答案】D

【详解】句意：一嗯，一个汉堡、两个香蕉派和薯条。先生,要喝点什么？一除了可乐，什么都可以。

考查代词辨析。Something某物;Nothing没有什么;Everything所有事;Anything任何事。anythingbut意

为“除……以外任何事”，根据"butcoke,please.”可知,此处是说除了可乐其他的都可以,故选D。

11.Idon'tthinkDavidtrieshisbesttolearnEnglish.Healwaysspendstimethanhis

classmatesstudyingit.

A.less;ulhciB.fcwci;。山ciC.less;theolliciD.fewer;(heuthci

【答案】A

【详解】句意：我认为大卫没有尽力学习英语。他总是比其他同学花更少的时间学习它。

考查比较级和词义辨析。less更少的，修饰不可数名词；fewer更少的，修饰可数名词复数。time“时间”为

不可数名词，所以第一空要填less,排除B和D。other其他的，接复数名词；theother两个中的另一个。

结合“classmates”可知，第二空要填other。故选A。

12.—Myfatherboughtmeanewmobilephone,butIhavenoideahowtouseit.

一Whynotreadthefirst?

A.informationB.introductionC.invitationD.instruction

【答案】D

【详解】句意：——我爸爸给我买了一部新手机，但是我不知道怎么用。——为什么不先看一下说明书呢？

考查名词辨析。information信息;introduction介绍；invitation邀请;instruction说明书。根据"butIhaveno

ideahowtouseit”可知，要知道如何使用新手机，应先读说明书。故选D。

13,—isitfromthecitycentretotherailwaystation,Amy?

—Itisabouttaxiride.

A.Howlong;tenminutesB.Howfar;tenminutes,

C.Howlong;ten-minuteD.Howfar;tenminute's

【答案】B

【详解】句意：——艾米，从市中心到火车站有多远？——乘出租车大约需要十分钟。

考查特殊疑问句及名词的数和所芍格。Howlong多久，询问时间；Howfar多远，询问距离。根据答语“Itis

about…taxiride”可知，此处询问距离，用howfar引导特殊疑问句，句首首字母大写，可排除A项和C项；

ten后应接minute的复数形式，可排除D项。故选B。

14.一HowmuchisthetickettoUniversalBeijingResort?

—Anadultticketis489yuan,andyouneedto395yuanonachildticket.

A.spendB.costC.payD.take

【答案】A

【详解】句意：一去北京环球影城的票多少钱？一成人票是489元，儿童票是395元。

考查动词辨析。spend花费，主语为人；cost花费，主语为物；pay支付，主语为人，常与for连用：take

花费,主语为形式主语ito结合同定搭配spendsthonsth”花费...在....上”,该空要填spendo故选A。

15.—ShallIgiveyouarideasitisrainingsohard?

A.Nevermind.B.You'rewelcome.C.Doasyoulike.D.Itcouldn'tbebetter.

【答案】D

【详解】句意：一雨下得这么大，要不要我载你一程？一再好不过了。

考查情景交际。Nevermind不介意；You'rewelcome不客气;Doasyoulike做你喜欢的;Itcouldn'tbebetter

再好不过了。根据“ShallIgiveyouaride”可知，表示接受对方的好意。故选D。

二、完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

【答案】16.D17.A18.B19.A20.B21.D22.B23.C24.A25.D

【导语】本文讲述了端午节甜咸粽子之争背后，南北差异一直是热门话题，如今南北在市场采购食物方式

上的差异又引发关注，这种差异或因气候不同，而这些争论有助于中国人增进对彼此的了解。

16.句意：在中国，北方人和南方人之间的差异似乎一直是一个热门话题。

boring无聊的；funny有趣的；strange奇怪的；popular受欢迎的，热门的。根据前文“thedifferencesbetween

northernersandsouthernershavealwaysbeen…”以及后文“Nowanotherdifferencehasdrawnwideattention”可

知，南北差异是受关注的热门话题，故选D。

17.句意：现在另一个差异引起了广泛关注：北方人和南方人在市场上购物的方式。

shop购物；call打电话；care关心；wait等待。根据“atmarkets”可知,这里说的是购物方式，故选A。

18.句意：中国南方人可能喜欢只买一两餐所需的东西。

how怎样；what什么；where哪里；when什么时候。此处宾语从句中缺少宾语，指代“所需的东西“，用

what引导，故选B。

19.句意：相反，据《中国口报》报道，购买足够一周吃的蔬菜和肉是很常见的。

Instead相反；So所以；But但是：While当...时候。前文说南方人一次买少量食物，这里说北方人买一

周的量，前后是对比关系，所以用Instead,故选A。

20.句意：此外，当你去南方的市场时，你可以只买一个苹果或一个梨。

east东方；south南方;west西方;north北方。根据前文“PeoplefromsouthernChinamayliketobuy...”可知,

这里说的是南方的情况，故选B。

21.句意：店主甚至会帮你削皮和切块。

need需要;watch观看;make制作;help帮助。根据“peelandcutthem”可知，店主会提供帮助，故选D。

22.句意：但在北方，他们很少提供这样的服务。

receive收到：offer提供；accept接受;record记录。根据前文“Shopownerseven...youpeelandcutthem.“可

知，南方店主会提供服务，这里说北方很少提供，故选B“

23.句意：在北方，人们可以长时间储存食物，因为那里通常寒冷干燥。

cook烹饪;buy购买:store储存;protect保护。根据"asitisusuallycoldanddrythere”可知,北方气候适合

储存食物，故选C。

24.句意：否则，食物可能会变质。

bad坏的；wrong错误的；missing失踪的；safe安全的。根据前文“becauseofthehotandwetweatherinthesouth”

可知，南方天气热湿，食物容易变质，g。bad表示“变质”，故选A。

25.句意：也许这些关于差异的争论有助于我们中国人更多地了解彼此.

tastes口味；climates气候；traditions传统;differences差异。根据全文围绕南北差异展开可知,这里说的

是关于差异的争论，故选D。

【答案】29.B30.C31.C32.D

【导语】本文节选自《格列佛游记》，讲述了格列佛进入了小人国的故事。

29.细节理解题。根据“Theguardswereworriedwhentheysawmyknifeinmyhand”可知，刚开始他们认为

格列佛很危险，以为他是他们的敌人。故选B。

30.词句猜测题。根据“Anofficertoldtheguardstoholdsixmenwhomademeangry.Anofficertoldtheguards

toholdsixmenwhomademeangry.ThesemenweregiventomeandIhadtochoosetheirpunishment（惩罚）.I

putfiveoftheminmypocket.”可知,划线单词是指那6个男人。故选C。

31.推理判断题。根据“TheKingspokeinahighvoicebut1couldhearallthewordsclearly."，"TheKingandI

oftenspoketoeachotherbutneiiher（两者都不）ofusunderstoodasingleword."，“ButIonlycutthebinding（捆

绑物）roundhishands.ThenIputhimonhisfeetandlethimgo.Iliftedtheotherfivemenoutofmypocketand

putthemgentlyonthegroundtoo."和“TheKingorderedhismentomakeabedfbrmeandtheyhadtojoinsix

hundredoftheirlittlebedstogethertomakeonebedforme.“可知，故事的发展顺序是国王说了一些话；国王

和格列佛两人互相不理解对方说了什么；格列佛放了那六个小人：国王命令手卜给格列佛做了一张大床，

所以顺序为③②④①。故选C。

32.细节理解题。根据"Thewisementhoughtthattheyshouldkillme.Buttheywouldnotbeabletobury（埋葬）

me.Mydeadbodywouldsmell.Thismightcause（导致）muchillnessalloverthecountry.”可知,因为格列佛的

尸体会散发恶臭，可能会在他们的国家引发了许多疾病，所以最后没有杀了格列佛。故选D。

【答案】33.C34.A35.D36.B

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了一对双胞胎拥有他们自己的交流方式，这被称之为心灵感应，并

通过实验探究证明了心灵感应的存在。

33.词义猜测题。根据第二段“Asvvegotolder,westartedusingtelepathytocommunicate.Sometimeswedon't

needtospeakatall;wejustuseoui'minds.”随着年龄的增长，我们开始使用心灵感应来交流。有时候我们根

本不需要说话，我们只是用我们的头脑。由此可知，划线词汇意为“心灵感应”，所有选项C符合题意。故

选C。

34.推理判断题。根据第三段“Oneexperimentinvolvedeight-year-oldRichardPowlesandhistwin,Damien.

First,theywereputinseparate,soundlessrooms,andDamienwaswireduptoamachinethatmeasuredhis

responses.Richardwasthenasked(oputhisarmintoicecoldwater.A((heexactmomentheputhisarmintothe

water,Damien'sresponseswentwild.”可知，八岁的理查德.波尔斯和他的双胞胎兄弟达米安。首先，他们

被放在单独的、无声的房间里，达米安被连接到一台机器上，测量他的反应。然后理杳德被要求把他的胳

膊放进冰冷的水中。就在他把手伸进水里的那一刻，达米安的反应变得疯狂。由此可知，理查德.波尔斯

和达米安能够用心灵感应进行交流。故选A。

35.细节理解题。根据笫四段“ActorAshleyOlsentellsusthat,evenwhentheyarcfarawayfromeachother,she

knowswhenhertwinsister,MaryKate,isgoingthroughadifficulttimeorwhensheisn'thappy.'）寅员艾彳十丽.

奥尔森告诉我们，即使他们相距很远，她也知道她的双胞胎妹妹玛丽・凯特什么时候正经历一段困难时期，

或者什么时候她不开心。由此可知，“So,maybeitstrue—maybesometwinsdon'tneedwordsatalltospeakto

eachother.所以，也许这是真的——也许有些双胞胎根本不需要语言来交流。”放在第四段后合适。故选D。

36.推理判断题。根据第三段“Athoughitsoundsstrange,telepathybetweentwinsisn'tsounusual.Therehave

beenalotofstudieswhichhaveprovedthatsometwinshavethisability.”虽然听起来很奇怪，但双胞胎之间的

心灵感应并不罕见。已经有很多研究证明一些双胞胎有这种能力。以及结合文中举的例子可知，研究表明

一些双胞胎可以特殊交流。故选B。
