We were living in the countryside then and had just arrived from Hong Kong that autumn. One evening in midDecember snow began to fall. When we looked out of the window and saw that it was snowing, we all felt very happy. It was the first snow we had ever seen and we were excited. Next morning when we woke up, it was still snowing. We turned on the radio and learned that more than ten inches of snow had fallen during the night and that since there was too much snow on the roads there would be no school that day. We jumped up and down with joy and asked Mother to let us go outside to play in the snow. She said we could go out after breakfast if we dressed ourselves warmly and promised to come back as soon as we felt cold. When we went out, the snow had almost stopped. The roads, paths, gardens, and playgrounds were all hidden under soft white snow. It was the most beautiful sight we had ever seen.‎ 答案：1－5　CBABB　6－10　AABAC ‎11－15　BABBC　16－20　ACBAC 第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)‎ 第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。‎ A More than 30 million kids buy school lunch each day. This year, many schools have raised lunch prices to fight rising costs. Students pay about $ 2 a meal now. That is 27 cents more than last year. But they still get a good deal. The average cost for schools to produce one meal has gone up 30 cents, and is now $3.‎ So, how do schools neither make money nor lose money? To start, the government pays for a small part of the difference. Schools have to make up the rest. Peggy Eller, a leader of school nutrition (营养) services in Hudson, Wisconsin, said her area is cutting costs by using fewer paper products and serving smaller portions (份). Well, portion control is one key to healthy eating!‎ The push for more healthy food has grown in recent years. One in five kids aged 6 to 19 is overweight. Being overweight can cause health problems. Many states have passed laws that require schools to serve nutritious meals.‎ Recently, more than 90% of all US schools have taken the fat away from lunches. Foods that are high in fat, salt and sugar have been replaced by lowfat milk, fresh fruit and vegetables. These new portions on lunch menus have encouraged kids to change their eating habits. “It makes it easier to try new things at home，” said Savanna Mackey, a Florida fifthgrader.‎ Students need healthy meals to grow strong and do well in school. The soaring food prices won't stand in the way, says school nutritionist Janey Thornton. “We'll just be more clever in how we do things.”‎ ‎21．What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?‎ A．The average price of school lunch foods.‎ B．The schools' ways to deal with school lunch.‎ C．The large number of kids buying school lunch.‎ D．The fact that school lunch is getting more expensive.‎ ‎22．Many schools raise lunch prices because ________.‎ A．the cost of food has gone up B．they are serving larger portions C．they want to make more money D．there is more healthy food included ‎23．What Savanna Mackey said in Paragraph 4 shows that ________.‎ A．she prefers eating at school to eating at home B．she doesn't like the new portions on lunch menus C．she becomes interested in eating healthy food at home D．she always enjoys food like fresh fruit and vegetables ‎24．The underlined word “soaring” in the last paragraph means ________.‎ A．fixed B．rising quickly C．changing D．falling quickly 答案与解析：‎ 尽管物价飞涨，但美国学校还是想尽办法保证为学生提供健康的营养午餐。‎ ‎21．解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段中所列举的数字可知，该段主要介绍了学校提高午餐价格这一事实。‎ 答案：D ‎22．解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句中的to fight rising costs以及该段最后一句可知，许多学校提高午餐价格的原因是物价的上涨。‎ 答案：A ‎23．解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第三句可知，午餐新食谱改变了孩子们的饮食习惯。该段第四句中举Savanna Mackey为例是为了进一步说明这一点。结合她所说的话可推知，新食谱对孩子们饮食习惯的影响使她更想在家吃健康食品了。她所说的new ‎ things指的就是健康食品。‎ 答案：C ‎24．解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段第二句中的rising costs可知，物价不断上涨导致许多学校提高午餐价格。画线词修饰food prices，故其意义与rising一致。‎ 答案：B B Jack threw the papers on my desk and looked at me angrily.‎ ‎“What's wrong？” I asked.‎ ‎“Next time you want to change anything, ask me first，” he shouted.‎ ‎“How dare he treat me like that？” I thought. I'd changed one long sentence, and corrected grammar—something I thought I was paid to do.‎ In fact I'd been warned. One workmate took me aside the first day and reminded me of his temper (脾气). One day, another thing left me in tears so I stormed into his office angrily.‎ ‎“What？” he asked.‎ Suddenly I knew what I must do. After all, he earned it. “Jack, the way you've been treating me is wrong，” I said. Jack seemed nervous.‎ ‎“I make you a promise. I'll be a friend. I'll treat you as you should be treated, with respect and kindness，” he said. With these words, I left.‎ Jack avoided me the rest of the week. Another day I left a note on his desk, reading “Hope your day is going great.” Over the next few weeks, Jack reappeared, but nothing unhappy happened again.‎ One year later, I had breast cancer. The last day of my hospital stay, Jack came. He placed some flowers beside me, saying, “Tulips.”‎ I smiled, not understanding. He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they'll come up next spring.” Tears clouded my eyes and I whispered, “Thank you.”‎ Jack held my hand firmly, saying, “You're welcome. You can't see it now, but next spring you'll see the colors I picked out for you.”‎ I've seen those beautiful tulips push through the soil every spring for ten years now. I'll never forget Jack. After all, that's what friends do.‎ ‎25．Jack was angry with the author because ________.‎ A．she pointed out his mistakes in public B．she changed the contents of the papers C．she read the papers without his permission D．she corrected the papers without telling him ‎26．The author entered Jack's office with the purpose of ________.‎ A．telling him about the mistake he had made B．comforting him for the mistake he had made C．saying sorry to him for their misunderstanding D．telling him she wanted to make friends with him ‎27．Why did the author cry on the last day of her hospital stay?‎ A．She was afraid that she would die soon.‎ B．She was moved by Jack's flowers and words.‎ C．She was pleased that Jack became a good man.‎ D．She was angry with Jack for what he did to her.‎ 答案与解析：‎ 本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者和同事Jack之间的故事。Jack的无礼曾经使作者难堪，但后来作者的做法感动了Jack，他们两人成了朋友。正是这位朋友的鼓励帮助作者战胜了病魔。‎ ‎25．解析：细节理解题。根据第三、四段可知，Jack朝作者发火是因为作者没有跟他说一声就修改了他文件中的错误。‎ 答案：D ‎26．解析：细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句可知，作者是气冲冲地走进Jack的办公室的。结合第七段中作者所说的话可知，作者去他的办公室是为了让他知道他做错了事情。‎ 答案：A ‎27．解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中Jack所说的话和作者的反应可知，作者是被Jack的话和鲜花感动得哭了。‎ 答案：B C A euphemism (from the Greek words eu—well and pheme—speak) is a word or expression that is used when people want to find a polite or less direct way of talking about difficult or embarrassing topics like death or the bodily functions.Most people, for example, would find it very difficult to say in plain language that they have arranged for their sick old dog to be killed.They would soften the pain by saying：We had Ruby put down or We had Ruby put to ‎ sleep.Many people prefer to call someone plain than ugly, or cuddly rather than fat.‎ Euphemisms are an important part of every language, but it seems that English has an evergrowing number of them.The nonnative speaker not only has to make sense of the euphemisms he hears, he also has to learn which euphemisms are appropriate in any particular situation.He might be aware that his American friend needs to use the toilet when she asks where the bathroom (or restroom, or comfort station) is, but he is less likely to guess that his English friend has the same need when he says he has to see a man about a dog.He might have learned, for example, that in the family way is a euphemism for pregnant.If, however, he says to his boss, “Congratulations！I hear your wife is in the family way，” he would be using an expression that is too familiar for the circumstances.‎ Schools are full of euphemisms.At Frankfurt International School, for example, the special lessons given to students who are having difficulties in their school subjects are called Study Center (in the middle school) and Academic Workshop (in the high school)．Teachers rightly do not want to upset students or parents by being too frank or straightforward, and usually choose a softer word or expression to convey the same message.‎ ‎28．According to the passage, people use euphemisms in order to ________.‎ A. make themselves understood B. avoid embarrassment C. to sound straightforward D. attract attention ‎29．A person who is described as plain and cuddly is in fact ________.‎ A. tall and handsome ‎ B. pretty and slim C. ugly but tall ‎ D. ugly and fat ‎30．The main purpose of Paragraph 2 is to ________.‎ A. stress that euphemisms are an important part of every language B. inform readers that English has an evergrowing number of euphemisms C. suggest nonnative speakers use euphemisms as often as possible D. warn English learners to be careful about the meaning and use of euphemisms ‎31．At Frankfurt International School, the students who receive lessons in Study Center ________.‎ A. have poor grades in the subjects B. do well in school C. work hard at their lessons D. prefer to learn more 答案与解析：‎ 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了委婉语在英语中的广泛应用，并提醒英语学习者，要在沟通中注意委婉语的意思和用法，以免出现尴尬状况。‎ ‎28．解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句“A euphemism (from the Greek words eu—well and pheme—speak) is a word or expression that is used when people want to find a polite or less direct way of talking about difficult or embarrassing topics like death or the bodily functions.”可知，答案B“为了避免尴尬”符合文意。‎ 答案：B ‎29．解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句“Many people prefer to call someone plain than ugly, or cuddly rather than fat.”可知，答案D符合文意。‎ 答案：D ‎30．解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段第二句“...not only has to make sense of the...also has to learn...in any particular situation.”及对第二段的整体理解可知，列举了英语中应用委婉语的不同情形，从而给英语学习者提醒：要在沟通中注意委婉语的意思和用法，以免出现尴尬状况。‎ 答案：D ‎31．解析：细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第二句“At Frankfurt International School, for example, the special lessons given to students who are having difficulties in their school subjects are called Study Center (in the middle school) and Academic Workshop (in the high school)．”可知，答案A符合文意。‎ 答案：A D A goldfish is just a goldfish. Is it right? Wrong, say some experts in China and to prove their point, they organized a pageant (盛会) intended entirely for these tiny beauties. Held on Saturday, September 15, in Fuzhou, a city in Fujian Province, the first International Goldfish Championship attracted 3,000 contestants (选手) from 14 countries ranging from neighboring Indonesia and Malaysia, all the way to Brazil.‎ Unlike normal beauty pageants, contestants were not asked to show themselves in swimsuits and evening clothes, nor asked questions about how they would solve the world's problems. Instead, they were all shown in the samesize white bowls of water so that they could be judged only by their natural looks.‎ So what were the judges that went around observing each contestant carefully looking for? According to head judge Ye Qichang, five things—breed, body shape, color, overall impression and swimming gesture, which normally means how new goldfish introduce themselves to other goldfish. However, in this case since they were swimming alone, only the judges knew what that ‎ really meant.‎ And, while looks were important, it was the weight that the judges got most impressed by. The more nicely rounded the contestant was, the better, because that clearly is a sign that it had not suffered any major difficulty or illness during breeding.‎ While the winner of the title of World Goldfish Queen will be made public next Saturday, the judges did say they were inclining (倾向于) toward a rare 3.9pound giant beauty that was seen swimming around its fishbowl with amazing gesture.‎ ‎32．What can we learn from Paragraph 1?‎ A．Not all the goldfish are very beautiful.‎ B．All the goldfish shown in the pageant were tiny.‎ C．Some countries have held similar pageants before.‎ D．Many goldfish from different countries attended the pageant.‎ ‎33．How did the judges judge contestants?‎ A．By looking at their sizes.‎ B．By asking them questions.‎ C．By looking at their natural looks.‎ D．By examining their abilities to live.‎ ‎34．Why did the judges like rounded goldfish?‎ A．They were not affected by illness.‎ B．They had survived difficulties.‎ C．They swam more slowly.‎ D．They were beautiful.‎ ‎35．The passage mainly tells us ________.‎ A．goldfish are beautiful fish B．a goldfish pageant in Fuzhou C．how to recognize good goldfish D．goldfish are popular in the world 答案与解析：‎ 在福州举办的一次金鱼展览非常有趣，它吸引了14个国家的选手参赛。‎ ‎32．解析：细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知，来自不同国家的许多金鱼参加了这一次金鱼展览会。‎ 答案：D ‎33．解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知，裁判是通过观察金鱼天生的外貌来进行评判的。‎ 答案：C ‎34．解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，裁判偏爱丰满的金鱼是因为它们没有受到疾病的影响。‎ 答案：A ‎35．解析：主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了在福州举办的一次金鱼展览会。‎ 答案：B 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Can you remember the day when you spoke your first word? __36__ Try to imagine what the first few months of your life were like. I am sure you just spent most of your time eating, sleeping and crying.‎ As you grew older, you were awake more of the time. It took your parents more time to play with you and talk to you. __37__ You began to know that people made certain sounds to go with certain things.‎ ‎__38__ And step by step you were able to make the right sound for one thing.‎ ‎__39__ The secret is that a certain sound means a certain thing. One sound might be as good as another. But it is no good as a word unless everybody agrees on its meaning. Only when a group of people use the same set of sounds of things can they understand each other. Then, and only then do these people have a “language”．‎ After you found the secret of language, you learned words. Some of the words mean things, such as “book”， “chair” and “shoe”. Some words mean doing things, such as “go” and “swim”. And other words describe things, such as “good” and “dirty”. Soon you learned to put words together to express your ideas, such as “I want to go out and play with my friends.” This is language. __40__ So we say languages are means of communication.‎ A．If you can, you are unusual.‎ B．You watched and listened curiously.‎ C．We should find the secret of language.‎ D．By means of language people can communicate.‎ E．Then you began to try making the sounds you heard.‎ F．On that day you came to understand the secret of language.‎ G．When you were a little baby, you could not hear any sound around you.‎ 答案与解析：‎ 人在年幼时对语言的习得是一个循序渐进的过程。孩子从模仿发音开始，接着学习词汇，然后逐渐学会用句子来表达思想，最终使语言成为与他人交流的工具。‎ ‎36．解析：上一句中提出了“你能记起你说第一个词是在哪一天吗？”这一问题，该空应针对该问题作出回答。结合常识可知，用A项(如果你能记起这一天来，那你就不同寻常)回答最合适。‎ 答案：A ‎37．解析：结合该空前后的两句可知，此阶段父母花费更多时间跟你玩耍和说话，你开始慢慢理解声音的含义，而这需要通过观察和倾听来实现，故选B项。‎ 答案：B ‎38．解析：该空与其后一句相衔接，说明了学习发音的过程——先是尝试发出听到的声音，然后慢慢地你就能够正确地发出某些声音。‎ 答案：E ‎39．解析：根据该空后的The secret is that可知，该空提到了语言的秘密，且本文通篇用you这一人称对语言习得的过程进行说明，可排除C项，故选F项。‎ 答案：F ‎40．解析：下一句的意思是“所以，我们说语言是交流工具。”由此可见，该空应当解释为什么我们说语言是交流的工具。只有D项(人们可以通过语言进行交流)能够解释这一点。‎ 答案：D 第三部分　英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节：完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ I don't remember the exact date I met the old cashier (收银员) for the first time.
