The fork is held in your right hand and the knife in your left. ‎ B What are some of the best stories you have ever read? Fairy tales from Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen, or the Sherlock Holmes Doyle? Now, you can add another person to your list of favourite authors. His name is Cao Wenxuan, and he is a Chinese writer who is well known for writing children’s fiction.‎ On April 4, Cao won the 2016 Hans Christian Andersen Prize(国际安徒生奖) in Italy. He is the first Chinese writer to ever win this important award for children’s literature. “The unanimous(全体一致的) choice of the jury(评委会), Cao writes beautifully about the complex(复杂的) lives of children facing great challenges,” Patricia Aldana, the 2016 Hans Christian Andersen jury president, said to Xinhua.‎ Cao was born in a poor family in 1954 and lived there for 20 years. Cao’s books are set in the 1950s and 1960s in the countryside of China, drawing from his childhood experiences. Many of his books have been put into different languages for readers around the world to enjoy.‎ If you read Cao’s stories, you will find many beautiful and poetic descriptions of scenery. For example, in The Grass House(1997，《草房子》), Cao writes,” The grass grows tough. When the sun shines, the grass shines like copper wire(铜线). When the wind blows from the sea, the grass makes surprisingly metal-like sounds.”‎ Cao also uses love as a theme in his stories, and he describes it with great beauty. You can ‎ find this theme in Bronze and Sunflower(2005，《青铜与葵花》). A country boy named Bronze who cannot speak meets a city girl named Sunflower. He takes Sunflower as his little sister after her father dies in an accident. Bronze does everything he can to make Sunflower happy: He leaves school to make sure there is money for Sunflower’s studies, he catches fireflies(萤火虫) for her and he makes a light to help Sunflower do her homework. But it seems they are doomed(命中注定的) to be pulled apart(分离) …‎ Though the ending is sad, it helps make the story more realistic. “Sadness is a beautiful emotion(情感). It helps kids understand the real world when it is expressed properly,” Cao once told The Wen Hui Daily.‎ When Cao creates a story, he does not write specially for someone. Adults can find beauty in his stories, and the plots(情节) he invents tend to impress children. “I tell authentic(地道的) Chinese stories, but they are stories that all humans can relate to(关联). This might be a key reason why I won this award,” he said.‎ ‎( ) 36. The Hans Christian Anderson Prize is an award for _________.‎ A. detective stories B. historical stories ‎ C. children’s literature D. foreign literature ‎( ) 37. The underlined word “tough” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_________” in Chinese. ‎ A. 艰苦的 B. 粗暴的 C. 坚强的 D. 生动的 ‎( ) 38. Cao describes the following in his stories EXCEPT _________.‎ A. the complex lives of children B. beautiful scenery C. the theme of love D. the challenges adults face ‎( ) 39. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? ‎ A. The happy ending makes the story realistic.‎ B. Cao thinks sadness helps kids to grow.‎ C. Cao writes stories for someone.‎ D. Adults can’t find beauty in Cao’s stories.‎ ‎( ) 40. Cao won the 2016 Hans Christian Andersen Prize probably because _________.‎ ‎ A. many of his books have been translated into different languages so far ‎ B. his books are full of attractive fairy tales and exciting detective stories ‎ C. in his books he tells true Chinese stories that all humans are connected to ‎ ‎ D. his childhood experiences in the countryside are vividly described in his books C Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the lake behind his house. He ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.‎ He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator(短吻鳄) was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy made a U—turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. The mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the alligator pulled his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war(拔河比赛) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother did her best not to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, rushed from his truck and helped them.‎ Luckily, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were seriously scarred(疤痕) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scars where his mother’s fingernails dug into his arms in her effort to pull the son she loved.‎ The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the legs. And then, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let go.”‎ ‎( ) 41. ___________ was in the middle of the lake.‎ A. An alligator B. The boy C. Mother D. Father ‎( ) 42.

But there is an exception for the word “OK”!‎ The word OK first appeared in the Boston Morning Post on March 23, 1839. It was an abbreviation of the phrase “oll Korrect”, an incorrect s 71 of “all correct”. Although it began as a joke, people later u 72 the phrase on documents(文件) or through telegraphs(电报) to say that all was well.‎ This year, OK celebrated its 179th b 73 . We use this expression countless times every day. “How about two o’clock? OK?” “OK then.” The word OK is e 74 to say, write and understand.‎ Besides, it is more neutral(中立的) than many words. Allen Metcalf, American author of OK : The Improbable story of America’s Greatest Word, told The Times, “What OK provided that other words did not was neutrality, a way to express agreement w 75 having to offer an opinion.” For example, if someone asks you to go for a walk after lunch, you can s 76 answer “OK”. There you go — no extra opinions.‎ OK can be spelled in different ways: okay or O.K. they are all p 77 the same. But “OK” is the most widely accepted spelling and is often used in writing. Some people, however, like the spelling “okay” b 78 it looks more like a word.‎ Sometimes, people also say short forms of OK like “K”. For example, someone might say,‎ ‎ “I’m just going to the supermarket, but I’ll be b 79 in 10 minutes.” You could reply with “K”.‎ OK is so useful that it’s said worldwide. You may not know the l 80 of someone you’re talking with, but saying “OK” with gestures(手势) can help you communicate. ‎ 五、书面表达（共1题，计20分）‎ ‎ 我校英文报社将举行一个主题为Wild animals need protecting的征文比赛，请你根据下面图表提供的信息，用英语写一篇100字左右的短文，要求行文连贯，结构合理，条理清楚，不得出现真实姓名和学校等信息。注意：‎ ‎1. 图一和图二反映了世界上野生动物种类(animal species)的变化情况和部分原因； ‎ ‎2. 图三的思维导图反映了文章的结构和内容要求。 ‎ 图 一 图 二 图 三 祝贺你顺利完成答题，可别忘了认真检查哦！ ‎ 参考答案 一、单项选择（共15小题，每题1分，计15分）‎ ‎1—5 ADCBD 6—10 BCCAC 11—15 ADCBD 二、完形填空（共15小题，每题1分，计15分）‎ ‎16—20 CBBDA 21—25 CDBAD 26—30 BCABD 三、阅读理解 A. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。（共15小题，每题2分，计30分）‎ ‎31—35 ADDCB 36—40 CCDBC 41—45 ADBBC B. 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。（共10小题，每题1分，计10分）‎ ‎46. between 47. care 48. impolite 49. serioius 50. parents ‎51. themselves 52. cheat 53. creating 54. used 55. brave C. 阅读与回答问题。（共5小题，每题2分，计10分）‎ ‎56.
