11．（8分）Do you play a musical instrument？Could you imagine playing one made of ice？
Tim Linhart is an American ice sculptor who has created a small orchestra of ice instruments.The performances have made people fun for more than 20 years.
The name of Linhart's orchestra is Ice Music.The instruments are very fragile.Even the warmth of a musician's breath can cause the sound to change.So the instruments need to be returned between each piece of music.Backup instruments are kept on hand in case one breaks，but some can be "repaired" with just a bit of water.
Most performances by Ice Music take place in a specially created concert hall in Lulea，in northern Sweden.The hall seats up to 200 people，and the temperature inside is about 23 degrees Fahrenheit.Listeners are encouraged to wear thick clothes，a hat，and gloves.Body heat and breathing can melt the instruments，so Linhart designed the hall as two ice houses connected with a stage in the middle.A hole above each side of the listeners allows heat to escape.
Because the concert hall can't last through the warm season，it must be rebuilt every winter.Ice Music concerts have taken place in other places like Canada，Finland.Linhart has recently built an 80﹣foot﹣high hall in the Italian Alps.When winter ends，Linhart tries to freeze some of the instruments in his "freeze house" for the next year's performances.Others that are too worn are allowed to melt in the sun.

（1）Tim Linhart is an ice sculptor from 　 　.
A.Canada
B.Italy
C.Northern Sweden
D.the US
（2）The underlined word "fragile" probably means 　 　.
A.strong
B.heavy
C.weak
D.expensive

A.The Ice Music only plays in America.
B.All the instruments can be kept well by Linhart.
C.The hole above each side of the listeners helps watch the play.
D.The concert hall must be rebuilt after the warm season.
（4）What's the writer's purpose of writing this passage？ 　 　
A.To introduce the instruments of Ice Music.
B.To tell people to protect the Ice Instruments.
C.To enjoy the Performances of the Ice Music.
D.To build more instruments of the Ice Music.

12．（8分）Migratory birds fly to different places during different seasons.This is bird migration.Birds in migration may fly day and night for months at a time.During this long journey，when and how do they sleep？
In 2016，some scientists studied a group of frigate birds during a ten﹣day flight.They recorded these birds' brain activities.Their findings made headlines﹣frigate birds can sleep while they are flying!
According to this study，these birds take two types of in﹣flight naps.The first is called Rapid Eye Movement （REM）sleep.It is the deepest stage of sleep.For humans，REM sleep can last for several minutes.For flying birds，however，REM sleep lasts for only a few seconds.Even so，REM sleep is still very important for proper brain functioning.
The other type of nap frigate birds take is Non﹣Rapid Eye Movement （NREM） sleep.During NREM sleep，the birds put only half of their brain to sleep，while the other half stays awake.The eyes of these birds are connected to the waking part of their brain.In other words，they sleep with their eyes open.They do this to stay away from dangers，and many birds do this even when they aren't migrating.
Even though frigate birds sleep during the flight，they prefer to stay awake most of the time，spending less than 3% of their time sleeping.Once they reach land，they recover their lost sleep，spending almost half their time dozing.
However，not all migratory birds sleep in this way.Many make occasional pit stops on their way to get a good rest before the next leg of their journey.Some stay completely awake during the whole journey.The Alpine Swift，for example，can fly for almost 200 days continuously.There is still little evidence of these birds sleeping during their long journeys.
The sleeping habits of birds differ from species to species.This makes the study of migratory birds very exciting for scientists.In the future，we may learn more amazing things about these animals.

（1）How does the writer lead into the topic？ 　 　
A.By telling a story.
B.By raising a question.
C.By making a comparison.
D.By listing some numbers.
（2）What happens to frigate birds if they get NREM sleep？ 　 　
A.They close their eyes.
B.They fly much more slowly.
C.Half of their brain stays awake.
D.They sleep most deeply during the period.
（3）According to the passage，the Alpine Swift 　 　.
A.never sleeps when flying in the sky
B.spends 3%of its time sleeping in the sky
C.mainly gets REM sleep during a long journey
D.makes some pit stops on its way to get a good rest
（4）What's the best title for the passage？ 　 　
A.Sleeping in the sky
B.The bird migration
C.Different stages of sleep
D.Frigate birds，a species of large seabirds

13．（11分）When I was a little boy，I remember one cold winter morning a smiling man came close to me with an ax on his shoulder. "My pretty boy，" he said， "has your father got a grindstone？"
"Yes，sir，" I said.
"You are a fine little fellow!" he said. "Will you let me grind my ax on it？"
Pleased with the praise of "fine little fellow"，I answered， "Oh，yes，sir.It is down in the shop."
"And will you，my man，" he said，patting me on the head， "get me a little hot water？"How could I refuse？I ran and soon brought a kettle.
"How old are you？And what's your name？" he continued，without waiting for a reply. "I'm sure you are one of the finest boys that I have ever seen.Will you just turn the ax on the grindstone a few minutes for me？" Pleased with the flattery，and like a little fool，I went to work.In the end，bitterly I regretted that day!
It was a new ax，which is hard to sharpen，and I worked and pulled till I was almost tired to death.The school﹣bell rang，and I could not get away.My hands were blistered，and the ax was not half done yet!Finally，it was sharpened.However，the man turned to me with， "Now，you little rascal，you've played truant.Run to school，or you'll regret it!"
"Oh，no"!I thought.It was hard enough to turn a grindstone this cold day，but now to be called a naughty boy is too much.It sank deep into my mind，and often have I thought of it since.
When I see a salesman over﹣polite to his customers，begging them to have a little whisky and throwing his goods on the counter，I think， "That man has an ax to grind."

（1）The man asked the boy many questions because he 　 　.
A.liked the boy very much

B.the man thanked the boy for grinding the ax

D.the boy didn't regret sharpening the ax
（3）The man called the boy "rascal" because 　 　.
A.his ax was damaged by the boy
B.he didn't need the boy any more
C.he didn't want the boy to play truant
D.he thought that boy should go to school on time

11．（8分）Do you play a musical instrument？Could you imagine playing one made of ice？
Tim Linhart is an American ice sculptor who has created a small orchestra of ice instruments.The performances have made people fun for more than 20 years.
The name of Linhart's orchestra is Ice Music.The instruments are very fragile.Even the warmth of a musician's breath can cause the sound to change.So the instruments need to be returned between each piece of music.Backup instruments are kept on hand in case one breaks，but some can be "repaired" with just a bit of water.
Most performances by Ice Music take place in a specially created concert hall in Lulea，in northern Sweden.The hall seats up to 200 people，and the temperature inside is about 23 degrees Fahrenheit.Listeners are encouraged to wear thick clothes，a hat，and gloves.Body heat and breathing can melt the instruments，so Linhart designed the hall as two ice houses connected with a stage in the middle.A hole above each side of the listeners allows heat to escape.
Because the concert hall can't last through the warm season，it must be rebuilt every winter.Ice Music concerts have taken place in other places like Canada，Finland.Linhart has recently built an 80﹣foot﹣high hall in the Italian Alps.When winter ends，Linhart tries to freeze some of the instruments in his "freeze house" for the next year's performances.Others that are too worn are allowed to melt in the sun.

（1）Tim Linhart is an ice sculptor from 　D　.
A.Canada
B.Italy
C.Northern Sweden
D.the US
（2）The underlined word "fragile" probably means 　C　.
A.strong
B.heavy
C.weak
D.expensive
（3）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？ 　D　
A.The Ice Music only plays in America.
B.All the instruments can be kept well by Linhart.
C.The hole above each side of the listeners helps watch the play.
D.The concert hall must be rebuilt after the warm season.
（4）What's the writer's purpose of writing this passage？ 　A　
A.To introduce the instruments of Ice Music.
B.To tell people to protect the Ice Instruments.
C.To enjoy the Performances of the Ice Music.
D.To build more instruments of the Ice Music.

【分析】本文介绍了世界上最酷的管弦乐队——冰雪音乐的相关内容。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据Tim Linhart is an American ice sculptor who has created a small orchestra of ice instruments.（Tim Linhart是一位美国冰雕家，他创建了一个小型冰乐器乐队。）可知，Tim Linhart是来自美国的冰雕师，故选：D。
（2）词义猜测题。根据上下文及划线单词所在句The instruments are very fragile.Even the warmth of a musician's breath can cause the sound to change.（这些仪器非常……。即使是音乐家呼吸的温暖也会引起声音的变化。）可知，乐器是冰块做的，所以是脆弱的，声音很容易因为温度变化而改变。带下划线的单词"fragile"可能表示"脆弱的"，故选：C。
（3）细节判断题。根据第五段第一句Because the concert hall can't last through the warm season，it must be rebuilt every winter.（由于音乐厅无法度过温暖的季节，所以必须每年冬天重建。）可知，这与选项D（在温暖的季节过后，音乐厅必须重建。）描述一致，因此D项是正确的，故选：D。
（4）主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了世界上最酷的管弦乐队——冰雪音乐的相关内容。因此作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍冰上音乐的乐器，故选：A。

12．（8分）Migratory birds fly to different places during different seasons.This is bird migration.Birds in migration may fly day and night for months at a time.During this long journey，when and how do they sleep？
In 2016，some scientists studied a group of frigate birds during a ten﹣day flight.They recorded these birds' brain activities.Their findings made headlines﹣frigate birds can sleep while they are flying!
According to this study，these birds take two types of in﹣flight naps.The first is called Rapid Eye Movement （REM）sleep.It is the deepest stage of sleep.For humans，REM sleep can last for several minutes.For flying birds，however，REM sleep lasts for only a few seconds.Even so，REM sleep is still very important for proper brain functioning.
The other type of nap frigate birds take is Non﹣Rapid Eye Movement （NREM） sleep.During NREM sleep，the birds put only half of their brain to sleep，while the other half stays awake.The eyes of these birds are connected to the waking part of their brain.In other words，they sleep with their eyes open.They do this to stay away from dangers，and many birds do this even when they aren't migrating.
Even though frigate birds sleep during the flight，they prefer to stay awake most of the time，spending less than 3% of their time sleeping.Once they reach land，they recover their lost sleep，spending almost half their time dozing.
However，not all migratory birds sleep in this way.Many make occasional pit stops on their way to get a good rest before the next leg of their journey.Some stay completely awake during the whole journey.The Alpine Swift，for example，can fly for almost 200 days continuously.There is still little evidence of these birds sleeping during their long journeys.
The sleeping habits of birds differ from species to species.This makes the study of migratory birds very exciting for scientists.In the future，we may learn more amazing things about these animals.

（1）How does the writer lead into the topic？ 　B　
A.By telling a story.
B.By raising a question.
C.By making a comparison.
D.By listing some numbers.
（2）What happens to frigate birds if they get NREM sleep？ 　C　
A.They close their eyes.
B.They fly much more slowly.
C.Half of their brain stays awake.
D.They sleep most deeply during the period.
（3）According to the passage，the Alpine Swift 　A　.
A.never sleeps when flying in the sky
B.spends 3%of its time sleeping in the sky
C.mainly gets REM sleep during a long journey
D.makes some pit stops on its way to get a good rest
（4）What's the best title for the passage？ 　A　
A.Sleeping in the sky
B.The bird migration
C.Different stages of sleep
D.Frigate birds，a species of large seabirds

【分析】本文主要介绍了一种在飞行时睡觉的鸟。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段中的During this long journey，when and how do they sleep？（在这次长途旅行中，他们什么时候睡觉，怎么睡觉） 可知，作者是通过提出问题切入主题的，故选：B。
（2）细节理解题。根据第四段中的 The other type of nap frigate birds take is Non﹣Rapid Eye Movement （NREM） sleep.During NREM sleep，the birds put only half of their brain to sleep，while the other half stays awake.（护卫舰鸟的另一种睡眠方式是非快速眼动睡眠。在NREM睡眠期间，鸟类只会将大脑的一半用于睡眠，而另一半则保持清醒。） 可知，如果护卫舰鸟得到NREM睡眠，他们一半的大脑保持清醒，故选：C。
（3）细节理解题。根据第六段中的Some stay completely awake during the whole journey.The Alpine Swift，for example，can fly for almost 200 days continuously.There is still little evidence of these birds sleeping during their long journeys.（有些人在整个旅程中都保持清醒。例如，阿尔卑斯雨燕可以连续飞行近200天。仍然没有证据表明这些鸟在长途飞行中睡觉。） 可知，阿尔卑斯雨燕在空中飞行时从不睡觉。故选：A。
（4）最佳标题题。根据第二段中的Their findings made headlines﹣frigate birds can sleep while they are flying!（他们的发现成为头条新闻，护卫舰鸟可以在飞行时睡觉！）以及通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一种在飞行时睡觉的鸟，因此文章最佳标题是介绍了一种睡在天空中的鸟。故选：A。

13．（11分）When I was a little boy，I remember one cold winter morning a smiling man came close to me with an ax on his shoulder. "My pretty boy，" he said， "has your father got a grindstone？"
"Yes，sir，" I said.

"I'm sure you are one of the finest boys that I have ever seen.Will you just turn the ax on the grindstone a few minutes for me？" Pleased with the flattery，and like a little fool，I went to work.In the end，bitterly I regretted that day!
It was a new ax，which is hard to sharpen，and I worked and pulled till I was almost tired to death.The school﹣bell rang，and I could not get away.My hands were blistered，and the ax was not half done yet!Finally，it was sharpened.However，the man turned to me with， "Now，you little rascal，you've played truant.Run to school，or you'll regret it!"
"Oh，no"!I thought.It was hard enough to turn a grindstone this cold day，but now to be called a naughty boy is too much.It sank deep into my mind，and often have I thought of it since.
