sunC.exploretheheavensD.takepeopletothemoon答案:D解析:本题文章主要讲述了JulesVerne在1865年所写故事中对于登月事件的描述与1969年阿波罗Ⅱ号太空任务的惊人相似性。根据[搜索结果]，JulesVerne的故事中描述的太空船“哥伦比阿德”与阿波罗Ⅱ号在多个方面极为接近，包括太空船的大小、发射地点（都在佛罗里达）、飞行速度（Verne的太空船速度为每秒36000英尺，阿波罗Ⅱ号为每秒35533英尺）、到达月球所需时间（Verne的太空船需97小时，阿波罗Ⅱ号需103小时）以及在太空中的活动（如拍照、休息、用燃气烹饪和体验失重等）。此外，两者的太空船都降落在太平洋，并由美国军舰回收。这些相似性展示了JulesVerne在描述这一未来事件时的极端准确性，其原因可能在于他对于科学、技术以及人类探索未知的深刻洞察和预见性。6、Whichclubdoyouprefertojoin,thechessclub（）thedancingclub?A.SOB.butC.orD.for答案:C解析:这道题考查连词的用法。在英语中，“or”用于在两者之间进行选择。题目中是在询问“chessclub”和“dancingclub”你更倾向加入哪个。“so”表示结果，“but”表转折，“for”表原因，都不符合题意。所以这里应该用“or”来表示选择关系。7、Thefootballmatchwas________,sotheboyswere________aboutit．A.excited；excitingB.exciting；excitedC.excited；excitedD.exciting；exciting答案:B解析:这道题考查“exciting”和“excited”的用法。“exciting”表示“令人兴奋的”，常修饰事物；“excited”表示“感到兴奋的”，常修饰人。足球比赛是事物，用“exciting”；男孩们是人，用“excited”。所以答案选B。8、Itwasreallydulltospendmyfirstwinterbreakalone,asIcouldnotgoanywherebecauseofheavysnow.SoIwenttoFindlay,Ohio,wheremyfriendAnnielives.

law.答案:D解析:根据文章内容，安妮之所以必须去接她的儿子，即使学校离她家很近，是因为她担心违反法律。在美国，将12岁以下的孩子独自留在家中无人看管是违法的。安妮在对话中明确提到了这一点，表明她不想因为让孩子独自回家而触犯法律。9、Intheirstruggletodealwithanattackofdesertlocusts(蝗虫),CypriotfarmersmaydowelltoturntoaU.N.sitethatsuggestsifyoucan'tbeatthemeatthem.Locustsarerichinproteinandcanbestir-fried,boiledorroasted.ItisapieceofvaluableinformationprovidedbytheRome-basedFoodandAgricultureOrganizationinadrivetohelpdealwithlocuststhathavelandedinCyprusfromAfrica.“Hereareafewlocalrecipes(处方)fromlocust-affectedcountries，”apageontheFAOWebsitesays.“Pleasesendusyours!”OnerecipefromatribeinsouthernAfricaadvisesmakingroastlocustintoafinepowdertoeatonajourney.“Thelegs,whendried,areespeciallyrelishedfortheirpleasanttaste.”“Takeseveraldozenlocustadults,especiallyfemales,cutthestomachlengthwiseandputapeanutinside,”aCambodianrecipesuggested.“Thenlightlycookthelocustsinahotfryingpan,addingalittleoilandsalttotaste,Becarefulnottoovercookorburnthem,”EatinglocustshasbeendocumentedfromBiblicaltimes.AccordingtotheChristianNewTestament,JohntheBaptistsurvivedonlocustsandhoneywhenhewasinthedesert-eventhoughsomequestionswhetheritwaslocustsheactuallyateastheGreekname“acridae”canalsomeanthetipsofplants.ThelocustsreachedeasternMediterraneancountriesinearlyNovemberaftertheworstattackrecordedinAfricaformorethanadecade.

countries.B.AU.Nsite.C.Africa.D.AnAfricanwebsite.答案:B解析:文中提到，Cypriotfarmers在面对蝗虫侵袭时，可以转向一个联合国网站，该网站建议如果无法消灭蝗虫，就吃掉它们。接着文章指出，这是罗马粮食及农业组织提供的有价值信息，旨在帮助应对从非洲飞到塞浦路斯的蝗虫。该网站的一个页面上展示了来自受蝗虫影响国家的本地食谱，并鼓励用户分享自己的食谱。因此，根据文章，关于烹饪蝗虫的方法可以在这个联合国网站上找到。10、ZhongNanshan,togetherwithhisteam,wenttoWuhan（）theCOVID-19brokeOut,A.asfarasB.assoonasC.aswellasD.aslongas答案:B解析:这道题考查连词的用法。在英语中，“assoonas”表示“一……就……”。当COVID-19爆发时，钟南山和他的团队一接到消息就去了武汉，“assoonas”最符合语境。“asfaras”表示“就……而言”，“aswellas”表示“也；和……一样”，“aslongas”表示“只要”，都不符合题意。所以答案选B。11、IfyouarelearningEnglishbecauseyou'regoingtotravelinEnglandandwishtobe（1）there,don'ttrytospeakEnglishperfectly,（2）ifyoudoso,noonewillunderstandyou.InLondonninety-nineineveryhundredpeoplespeak（3）English.Youmaysaythat（4）theydon'tspeakEnglishwellthemselves,theycan（5）understanditwhenitiswellspoken.They（6）whenthespeakerisEnglish.Butwhenthespeakerisa（7）,thebetterhespeaks,the（8）itistounderstandhim.Noforeignercan（9）stressthesyllables(音节)andmakethetone（10）andfallinquestionand（11）exactlyasa（12）does.（13）thefirstthingyouhavetodoistospeakwithastrong（14）accent,andspeakbroken,thatis,Englishwithoutany（15）.TheneveryEnglishpersonyou（16）willatonceknowyouareaforeigner,andtrytounder-standyouandbereadyto（17）you.Hewillnot（18）youtobepoliteandusegram-maticalphrases.Hewillbe（19）byhisclevernessinmakingoutyour（20）andbeingabletotellwhatyouwanttoknow.

第1空填（）。A.settledB.heardC.understoodD.known答案:C解析:本题考察的是对语境中合适词汇的选择。在第1空中，需要填入一个动词，与“you'regoingtotravelinEnglandandwishtobe”相搭配。根据文章意思，学习英语是为了在英格兰旅行时能够被当地人理解，因此“understood”最符合语境，表示“被理解的”。其他选项如“settled”表示定居，“heard”表示被听到，“known”表示被知道，均不符合此处的语境需求。12、“What'swrong（）you?”Thedoctorasked.A.fromB.withC.forD.in答案:B解析:这道题考查固定搭配。在英语中，“What'swrongwith...”是常见的固定句式，表示“怎么了”。A选项“from”通常表示来源；C选项“for”多表示目的、对象等；D选项“in”用于表示在里面等。根据固定搭配，“What'swrong（with）you?”是正确的表达，所以答案选B。13、Godownstairs,and（）inlineontheplaygroundassoonaspossible.A.tostandB.standingC.standD.stands答案:C解析:这道题考查祈使句的用法。祈使句中要用动词原形，and连接两个并列的动作，前面是“Godownstairs”，所以后面也要用动词原形。A选项“tostand”是动词不定式；B选项“standing”是现在分词；D选项“stands”是第三人称单数形式，都不符合祈使句的要求，所以应选C选项“stand”。14、After20yearsofmarriage,mywifewantedmetotakeanotherwomanoutto（1）.Shesaid,“Iloveyou,butIknowthisotherwomanlovesyoutoo.”Theotherwomanthatmywifewantedmetovisitwasmymother,whohasbeenawidow(寡妇)for19years,butmybusylifehadmadeitimpossibletovisither（2）.ThatnightIcalledto（3）heroutfordinner.“What'swrong?Areyouwell?”she'asked.Mymotheristhetypeofwomanwhosuspectsthatalatenight（4）isasignofbadnews.“Ithoughtthatitwouldbepleasanttospendsometimewithyou,”I（5）.Shethoughtaboutitforamoment,and（6）.Duringthedinner,wehadanagreeableconversation—（7）extraordinarybutrecenteventsofeachother'slife.Beforewe（8）,shesaid,“I'llgooutwithyouagain,（9）onlyifyouletmeinviteyou.”Afewdays（10）,mymotherdiedofaheartattack.It（11）sosuddenlythatIdidn'thaveachancetodoanythingforher.Afewdaysafterthefuneral,Ireceivedanenvelopewithare-ceipt(收据)fromthesameplacewheremotherandIhad（12）.Anattachednote（13）:“Ipaidthisbill（14）.Iwasn'tsurethatIcouldbethere;butnevertheless,Ipaidfortwo（15）一oneforyouandtheotherforyour（16）.Youwillneverknowwhatthatnightmeantforme.I（17）you,son.”Atthatmoment,I（18）theimportanceofsayingintime:“ILOVEYOU”.Giveyourfamilythe（19）theydeserve,becausesometimesthingscannotbe（20）till“someothertime”.

第16空填（）。A.motherB.familyC.wifeD.child答案:C解析:在文中，母亲留下的字条中提到“Ipaidfortwo—oneforyouandtheotherforyour_____”，结合前文可知，作者与母亲共进晚餐时，原本只有作者和母亲两人，但母亲付了两人的费用。考虑到文中还提到作者的妻子希望作者能多陪伴母亲，以及后文强调及时表达对家人的爱的重要性，可以推断这里的“theother”指的是作者的妻子，即选项C。母亲这样做可能是希望作者能意识到，除了她之外，作者还应该多关心和陪伴妻子。15、It'srathercoldhere.You'dbetter（）yourcoat.A.putawayB.notputonC.nottakeoffD.takeoff答案:C解析:这道题考查短语的含义及语境理解。在较冷的环境中，A选项“putaway”意为“收起”，不符合语境；B选项“notputon”是“不穿上”，逻辑不符；D选项“takeoff”是“脱下”，会更冷。C选项“nottakeoff”即“不要脱下”，符合这里冷的情境，所以应选C选项。16、从下面单词中找一个括号部分读音不同的单词。（）A.bl(u)eB.d(u)tyC.f(e)wD.exc(u)se答案:A解析:这道题考查单词中元音字母的读音。在英语发音规则中，A选项“blue”中“u”读[juː]；B选项“duty”、D选项“excuse”中“u”都读[juː]；C选项“few”中“e”读[juː]。所以读音不同的是A选项。17、Doyouknow（）?A.whatisthisusedforB.whatthisisusedforC.whichthisisusedD.thatthisisusedfor答案:B解析:这道题考查宾语从句的语序。宾语从句要用陈述句语序，A选项是疑问句语序，不符合要求。C选项which使用不当，D选项that不符合句子意思。B选项“whatthisisusedfor”是正确的陈述句语序，符合宾语从句的语法规则。所以应该选择B选项。18、Willyou______meafavor,please?Myluggageistooheavy.A.doB.takeC.giveD.bring答案:A解析:这道题考查固定短语的用法。“dosb.afavor”是“帮某人一个忙”的常用表达。“take”常表示“拿走”，“give”常表示“给予”，“bring”常表示“带来”。结合语境，说话者请求帮忙，“domeafavor”最符合，所以答案选A。19、WiththehelpoftheGermanexperts,thefactoryproduced（）carsin1993astheyearbefore.A.astwicemanyB.asmanyastwiceC.astwiceasmanyD.twiceasmany答案:D解析:这道题考查倍数表达法。在英语中，“倍数+as+形容词/副词原级+as”是常见的结构。A、B、C选项的表述均不符合该结构。D选项“twiceasmany”表示“两倍之多”，符合正确的倍数表达，所以应选D选项。20、You'dbettermakeagoodplan（）youtakeaholiday.A.beforeB.duringC.untilD.after答案:A解析:这道题考查连词的用法。在英语语法中，before表示“在……之前”。当说“制定一个好计划”和“度假”的关系时，通常是在度假前制定计划。during表示“在……期间”，until表示“直到……”，after表示“在……之后”，都不符合逻辑。所以应该选择A选项before。第Ⅱ卷（非选择题40分）二、填空题（10小题，每小题3分，共计30分）1、[未知题型(5)]Mr．Smithgoesfishingeveryweekend．（改为反意疑问句）[]答案:Mr．Smith

根据短文内容，在A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案填入文中(11)处。（）A.youB.meC.himD.us答案:B解析:在句子“Andeverythingisgoingwellwith_____(11)_____”中，根据上下文语境，这句话是在描述作者自己在北京的情况。由于后文提到了“Myhusband，Ben，isbusywithhis_____(13)_____，too”，说明作者的丈夫也很忙，因此可以推断出此处作者是在说自己一切都好，所以应该用代词“me”来指代作者自己。因此，选项B“me”是正确答案。5、[未知题型(5)]根据句意改写句子。Themeetingstoppedafewminutesago．Themeeting（）forafewminutes．答案:hasbeenover6、[未知题型(5)]（改写句子，句意不变，每空只填一个词）
