Earth Says
I am the mother Earth,
Filled with water, air, and life,
Humans, trees, birds, water, animals, and wildlife.
I spin and turn all year round the orbit,
To give you all the seasons and climate.
You people use my land, air, water, and soil,
But keep on filling it with litter and allowing it to spoil.
I provide you with air, food, and home to live,
With greedy lust, you destroy the nature I give,
And plot your own nature’s death.
The air you fill with smoke,
Makes my breath choke.
You make my heart fill with strife,
By cutting down the green forests,
And pushing up the green-house gases.
What was once a clean sea and pure soil,
Is now all barren, clogged with waste and oil.
How long can I stand the trouble?
I start to scream and tremble.
I give you all I have, until my end,
But it’s now all in your hands to defend and mend.

One Saturday Maria and I had a 30-mile bike ride. It seemed perfect. We started at 7:00 a.m. in beautiful spring weather. At 10:30 a.m., when we stopped for a rest, we both felt wonderful. And then a brisk wind came. That was when our perfect day began to change.
By noon, we knew a serious thunderstorm was blowing our way. Dark clouds rolled up our of the southwest. A stinging wind burned our faces. There was no way to stay out of the storm. We would have to wait it out, but where?
Then things went from bad to worse. The temperature dropped suddenly. I looked up and saw the sky now turned dark green. Trees and crops were bent over by the wind. No animals were in sight.
Then a blue car stopped beside our bikes. The driver shouted, “Get in!” She looked frightened, and so did we. We did as she said. That was when the hail（冰雹）started. Ice, the size of golf balls, hit the windows of the car.
She drove fast to the north. Maria and I looked back at the black sky. Maria screamed, “Tornado（龙卷风）!” It was so close that I could see trees, doors, and all kinds of other things that this monster swallowed（吞）.
My heart moved up to my throat and was beating so hard, I thought it would jump out of my body. I had never been so frightened. We would never run faster than the tornado! The driver turned to us and said calmly, “There’s an overpass（立交桥）ahead. We’ll stay under it for protection.”
When we parked, we jumped out of the car and ran to the wall of the overpass. Before I could count to 20, there came a loud noise. It sounded like a train passing overhead. Then, suddenly, it was over. We had made it.
Soon we were all laughing with relief（轻松）. We were shaken but excited. What a story I would have to tell at school.
32. What was the writer doing on the day of the tornado?
A. Resting at home. B. Playing outside. C. Riding a bike. D. Driving a car.

② Maria and I had a bike ride.
③ A thunderstorm was blowing our way.
④ Ice hit the windows of the car.
⑤ We got into a woman’s car.
A. ②-③-①-④-⑤ B. ②-③-⑤-④-① C. ③-①-②-⑤-④ D. ③-②-①-④-⑤
35. How did the kids feel when it was all over?
A. Tired and nervous. B. Afraid but excited.
C. Worried but lucky D. Sad and surprised.

请认真阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在表格中各小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
No matter (无论) where you are, you can see birds. Here are some birdwatching tips that make it possible to find and get a good look at more birds.
Keep ________
Birds are easily startled (受惊) by loud noises and will fly to cover. It is almost impossible to get close to a bird, because birds hear much better than human beings do. By making less noise, you can get much closer to a bird. A new bird watcher, when seeing an especially beautiful bird, will shout: “WOW! LOOK AT THAT! IT’S RIGHT OVER THERE!” However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.
Avoid sudden movements
Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement. Getting close to a bird means following it, moving slowly. A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous enough to fly away.
Be ________
Some birds are always flying here and there, some are jumping up and down. It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves. A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.
Try pishing
Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird. When this happens, bird watchers try a skill called pishing. A low whistled pish by blowing air through your closed teeth can attract (吸引) small birds to the watching place. Here’s how to pish: Clench (咬紧) your teeth, open your lips and whisper the word pish.
Just go outside and look around. Use these tips to see more birds and have fun!
Tips for birdwatching
If you want to have a close look at birds, you should ____56____ these tips.
Keep ____57____
»Birds will fly away to ____58____ from loud noise.
»It is better to speak in a low ____59____ when seeing beautiful birds.
Avoid sudden movements
»Moving ____60____ will make birds startled.
»Birds will feel ____61____ about a small movement like swinging binoculars.
Be ____62____
»It takes time to watch the birds.
»Keep ____63____, and a sparrow will jump into the place for you to watch.
Try pishing
»Sometimes you move slowly and quietly, ____64____ you still can’t watch the birds carefully.
»Pishing is a _____65_____ to help attract birds.

C. Ruth will stay in the mountains longer
D. Ruth will return home directly instead of going to the coast
【答案】A
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意：文字说如果天气变好露丝会去海边。
考查情景交际。根据“We’re studying in the mountains longer than we expected because of storms on the coast. We’ll go to the coast before returning home if the weather improves.”可知，我们在山里学习的时间比预期的要长因为海岸上有风暴。如果天气好转，我们先去海边，然后再回家。故选A。

The Earth Day was set up in 1970. Now, it is a worldwide event because the Earth is facing a lot of problems. Do you know why? Let’s listen to what the Earth says.
Earth Says
I am the mother Earth,
Filled with water, air, and life,
Humans, trees, birds, water, animals, and wildlife.
I spin and turn all year round the orbit,
To give you all the seasons and climate.
You people use my land, air, water, and soil,
But keep on filling it with litter and allowing it to spoil.
I provide you with air, food, and home to live,
With greedy lust, you destroy the nature I give,
And plot your own nature’s death.
The air you fill with smoke,
Makes my breath choke.
You make my heart fill with strife,
By cutting down the green forests,
And pushing up the green-house gases.
What was once a clean sea and pure soil,
Is now all barren, clogged with waste and oil.
How long can I stand the trouble?
I start to scream and tremble.
I give you all I have, until my end,
But it’s now all in your hands to defend and mend.
29. What is the mother Earth like according to Stanza (诗节) 1?
A. Angry. B. Worried. C. Generous. D. Comfortable.
30. What picture comes to your mind after reading Stanza 3?
A. A green Earth. B. A warming Earth. C. A dark Earth. D. A sick Earth.
31. The word “stand” in Stanza 4 has the same meaning as it is in “________”.
A. DIY stands for “do it yourself”. B. Yao Ming stands 2.26 meters tall.
C. Mother can’t stand the noisy boy. D. There are no seats, so we have to stand.
【答案】29. C 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【分析】本篇诗歌从地球母亲的角度告诫人们要节约资源和爱护地球环境。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一诗节中“I spin and turn all year round the orbit, To give you all the seasons and climate.”可知，地球母亲一年到头不停地绕着轨道旋转就是为了送给人们四季和气候，由此可知地球母亲应是一个慷慨的人。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。通读第三诗节可知，本节主要讲述了人类的所作所为使得地球母亲不堪重负，所以从本节我们应该能想象出一个“生病的”地球。故选D。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。结合第二、三诗节和第四诗节中“I give you all I have, until my end…”可知，尽管人类给地球母亲制造了很多“麻烦”，地球母亲仍然给予人类她所拥有的东西，由此可推知地球母亲应是“忍受”了人类制造的“麻烦”，所以“stand”在此应是“忍受”的意思，选项C“妈妈不能忍受那个吵闹的男孩”与此划线单词意思类似。故选C。
C
One Saturday Maria and I had a 30-mile bike ride. It seemed perfect. We started at 7:00 a.m. in beautiful spring weather. At 10:30 a.m., when we stopped for a rest, we both felt wonderful. And then a brisk wind came. That was when our perfect day began to change.
By noon, we knew a serious thunderstorm was blowing our way. Dark clouds rolled up our of the southwest. A stinging wind burned our faces. There was no way to stay out of the storm. We would have to wait it out, but where?
Then things went from bad to worse. The temperature dropped suddenly. I looked up and saw the sky now turned dark green. Trees and crops were bent over by the wind. No animals were in sight.
Then a blue car stopped beside our bikes. The driver shouted, “Get in!” She looked frightened, and so did we. We did as she said. That was when the hail（冰雹）started. Ice, the size of golf balls, hit the windows of the car.
She drove fast to the north. Maria and I looked back at the black sky. Maria screamed, “Tornado（龙卷风）!” It was so close that I could see trees, doors, and all kinds of other things that this monster swallowed（吞）.
My heart moved up to my throat and was beating so hard, I thought it would jump out of my body. I had never been so frightened. We would never run faster than the tornado! The driver turned to us and said calmly, “There’s an overpass（立交桥）ahead. We’ll stay under it for protection.”
When we parked, we jumped out of the car and ran to the wall of the overpass. Before I could count to 20, there came a loud noise. It sounded like a train passing overhead. Then, suddenly, it was over. We had made it.
Soon we were all laughing with relief（轻松）. We were shaken but excited. What a story I would have to tell at school.
32. What was the writer doing on the day of the tornado?
A. Resting at home. B. Playing outside. C. Riding a bike. D. Driving a car.
33. What happened first when the tornado began?
A. Dark clouds rolled up. B. The hail came suddenly.
C. The temperature dropped. D. Animals ran out of the sight.
34. What is the righter order of the story?
① The woman drove to the overpass.
② Maria and I had a bike ride.
③ A thunderstorm was blowing our way.
④ Ice hit the windows of the car.
⑤ We got into a woman’s car.
A. ②-③-①-④-⑤ B. ②-③-⑤-④-① C. ③-①-②-⑤-④ D. ③-②-①-④-⑤
35. How did the kids feel when it was all over?
A. Tired and nervous. B. Afraid but excited.
C. Worried but lucky D. Sad and surprised.

【分析】本文是一篇全球的天气预报。
【46题详解】

51. 南京的冬天既不冷也不热。(not...or...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】The weather in the winter of Nanjing is not too cold or too hot.
【解析】
【详解】天气：weather；冬天：winter；既不……也不……：not...or...；冷：cold；热：hot。根据题干可知，指的是南京的天气情况，因此the weather作主语，in the winter of Nanjing作定语放在后面，is作系动词，not too cold or too hot来表达“不是太冷也不是太热”。故填The weather in the winter of Nanjing is not too cold or too hot.
52. 幸运地是，有足够的空间给我移动。(space....)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Luckily, there was enough space for me to move./Luckily, there is enough space for me to move.
【解析】
【详解】幸运地是：luckily；足够的：enough；空间：space；给我：for me；移动：move。题干表述的内容用一般现在时或者一般过去时均可，luckily放在句首作状语，首字母大写，题干中的“有”可以用there be结构，space是不可数名词，be动词用was/is，enough修饰名词space放在前面，for me紧随其后，最后不定式to move作宾补。故填Luckily, there was enough space for me to move./Luckily, there is enough space for me to move.
53. 一切都被盖在厚厚的白雪下。(cover...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Everything is covered in deep white snow.
【解析】
【详解】一切：everything；盖：cover；厚厚的白雪：deep white snow。时态用一般现在时，“一切”和“盖”之间存在被动关系，因此用被动语态，结构时be done，everthing是代词，be动词用is，cover的过去分词是covered。故填Everything is covered in deep white snow.
54. 玄武湖是观鸟极好的地方。(perfect...to go...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Xuan Wu Lake is a perfect place to go birdwatching.
【解析】
【详解】玄武湖：Xuan Wu Lake；好地方：perfect place；观鸟：go birdwatching。根据题干内容可知，时态用一般现在时，主语是个地方，be动词用is，perfect是辅音音素开头的单词，冠词用a，后跟不定式to go birdwatching。故填Xuan Wu Lake is a perfect place to go birdwatching.
55. 我们经常看到很多人在那里观鸟。(watch birds...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】We often see lots of (many/a lot of) people watch birds there.
【解析】
【详解】see sb do sth“看见某人做某事”，强调经常发生的动作；often“经常”；lots of/many/a lot of“许多”；people“人们”；watch birds“观鸟”；there“在那里”，副词作状语放在句末，句子是一般现在时，主语we是复数形式，动词用原形，故填We often see lots of (many/a lot of) people watch birds there.
六、阅读填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）
A)
请认真阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在表格中各小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
No matter (无论) where you are, you can see birds. Here are some birdwatching tips that make it possible to find and get a good look at more birds.
Keep ________
Birds are easily startled (受惊) by loud noises and will fly to cover. It is almost impossible to get close to a bird, because birds hear much better than human beings do. By making less noise, you can get much closer to a bird. A new bird watcher, when seeing an especially beautiful bird, will shout: “WOW! LOOK AT THAT! IT’S RIGHT OVER THERE!” However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.
Avoid sudden movements
Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement. Getting close to a bird means following it, moving slowly. A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous enough to fly away.
Be ________
Some birds are always flying here and there, some are jumping up and down. It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves. A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.
Try pishing
Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird. When this happens, bird watchers try a skill called pishing. A low whistled pish by blowing air through your closed teeth can attract (吸引) small birds to the watching place. Here’s how to pish: Clench (咬紧) your teeth, open your lips and whisper the word pish.
Just go outside and look around. Use these tips to see more birds and have fun!
Tips for birdwatching

【答案】56. follow##use
57. quiet 58. hide
59. voice 60. suddenly
61. nervous
62. patient
63. waiting
64. but 65. skill
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些近距离赏鸟的方法。
【56题详解】
通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一些近距离赏鸟的方法，所以如果我们想要近距离赏鸟的话，我们应该遵循或者使用本文提及的方法；遵循：follow，动词；使用：use，动词；情态动词should后的动词应用原形。故填follow/use。
【57题详解】
根据第二段“Birds are easily startled by loud noises and will fly to cover.”可知，鸟类很容易受惊，然后飞走，所以如果我们想要近距离赏鸟的话就应该保持安静，因此第二空应填形容词“quiet（安静的）”作表语。故填quiet。
【58题详解】
根据第二段“Birds are easily startled by loud noises and will fly to cover.”可知，鸟类很容易受惊，所以它们都会飞走以躲避噪音，hide from“躲避……”，因此此空应填不定式中的动词原形“hide”。故填hide。
【59题详解】
根据第二段“However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.”可知，如果人们小声说话的话，鸟类会更可能呆在原地让人们观赏，也就是说赏鸟的时候，人们最好小声说话，in a low voice“小声说话”。故填voice。
【60题详解】
根据第三段“Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement.”可知，正如巨大的噪音会吓到鸟一样，突然的动作也会吓到鸟，所以此空应填副词“suddenly（突然地）”修饰动词“move”，意为“突然地移动”。故填suddenly。
【61题详解】
根据第三段“A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous…”可知，突然的移动，甚至当你把双筒望远镜举到眼睛上时，都会使鸟感到紧张，所以此空应填形容词“nervous（紧张不安的）”作表语。故填nervous。
【62题详解】
根据第四段中“It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves.”可知，等待鸟儿现身需要很长时间，所以赏鸟时人们要有耐心，因此此空应填形容词“patient（有耐心的）”作表语。故填patient。
【63题详解】
根据第四段“A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.”可知，一只在灌木丛中跳跃的麻雀最终会移动到一个你可以好好看一看的地方，也就是说只要继续等待的话麻雀就会跳到你面前供你观赏；再结合短语“keep doing sth.（继续做某事）”可知，此空应填动词“wait（等待）”的动名词形式waiting作宾语。故填waiting。
【64题详解】
根据倒数第二段“Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird.”可知，有时候，无论你移动得多慢多安静，你都无法好好观赏这只鸟；由此可知，有时候，虽然你已经移动得很慢很安静了，但是你还是无法好好观赏鸟，所以这两者之间是转折关系，因此此空应填转折连词but。故填but。
【65题详解】
根据倒数第二段“…bird watchers try a skill called pishing.”可知，“pishing”是一种赏鸟时可以用上的技能。故填skill。
B)
请根据短文内容和首字母提示，填写所缺单词。

71. (w)hile
72. (i)dea 73. (f)amily

【解析】
【分析】句意：本文主要讲的是在作者外祖母去世后，作者和母亲去了她的房子，回忆着外祖母的生活，并在看到一把摇椅后想起了外祖母抚养母亲以及母亲抚养作者的记忆。
【66题详解】
句意：在院子里喂鸟，坐在草地上打牌以及喝柠檬汽水。根据“…on the grass playing cards and drinking”可知，此处指坐在草地上打牌，sit表示“坐”，又因and前后词性一致，因此此处应填sitting。故填(s)itting。
【67题详解】
句意：在她死后的几周和几个月里，在没有她的房子里实在是太难了。根据“My grandmother passed away”可知，作者的外祖母去世了，此处指她死后的日子里。die表示“死”，此处应用过去式died。故填(d)ied。
【68题详解】
句意：她过着很简单的生活，没有留下很多。根据“hadn’t left much behind”可知，外祖母的生活过的很简单。life表示“生活”。故填(l)ife。
【69题详解】
句意：但是它对我的客厅来说太大了。根据“I thought for a moment about taking it home with me…it was far too big for my living room.”可知，前后句存在转折关系，but表示“但是”，位于句首首字母大写。故填(B)ut。
【70题详解】
句意：然后我的母亲进来后，看到一样的摇椅。根据首字母以及“it’s mom’s rocking chair.”可知，指母亲看到和外祖母一样的摇椅，same表示“相同的”。故填(s)ame。
【71题详解】
句意：你知道吗，我还是新生儿的时候，你的外祖母给我喂奶，一边摇晃着摇椅让我睡觉。根据“put me to sleep…rocking（摇晃）in that chair. ”可知，此处指摇晃摇椅和让母亲睡觉两个动作同时进行，因此用连词while连接表示“当……时候”。故填(w)hile。
【72题详解】
句意：我不知道摇椅的历史。have no idea表示“不知道”，作者并不知道摇椅过去的事情。故填(i)dea。
【73题详解】
句意：多年来，它一直留在我们家庭里，帮助我的母亲和外祖母应对新母亲身份的挑战。根据上文可知，外祖母和母亲都在摇椅上喂养过她们的孩子，可知摇椅一直在他们的家庭里。family表示“家庭”。此处指作者的家庭，因此填单数形式。故填(f)amily。
【74题详解】
句意：我和我的丈夫一直讨论有一个我们自己的孩子。of one’s own表示“某人自己的”。故填(o)f。
【75题详解】
句意：如果你不介意的话，我想我会把摇椅带回家。根据““Not at all,” she replied, with a knowing look in her eye.”以及上文可知，这把摇椅承载了母亲很多的回忆，因此作者问母亲介不介意。mind表示“介意”，“don’t”后跟动词原形。故填(m)ind。

【答案】One Earth, One Home
The earth is home to both humans and wild animals. But today wild animals are facing serious problems because of humans.On the one hand, people often cut down trees and forests for money. On the other hand, people kill animals for their fur or bones. So many animals are in danger. It’s time for us to save the earth and the wild animals. If we take some actions to protect our earth and animals in time, our earth will become comfortable for us to live in and the animals can live peacefully as they wish. But if we don’t, everything will beyond our imagination.
First, as students, we can try to be volunteers and do from little things. What’s more, we shouldn’t buy fur coats any more. Last but not least, we are supposed to educate more people to realize the importance of protecting earth and loving the animals.
Let’s act together to make a more beautiful home for us human and animals as well.

Earth Says
I am the mother Earth,
Filled with water, air, and life,
Humans, trees, birds, water, animals, and wildlife.
I spin and turn all year round the orbit,
To give you all the seasons and climate.
You people use my land, air, water, and soil,
But keep on filling it with litter and allowing it to spoil.
I provide you with air, food, and home to live,
With greedy lust, you destroy the nature I give,
And plot your own nature’s death.
The air you fill with smoke,
Makes my breath choke.
You make my heart fill with strife,
By cutting down the green forests,
And pushing up the green-house gases.
What was once a clean sea and pure soil,
Is now all barren, clogged with waste and oil.
How long can I stand the trouble?
I start to scream and tremble.
I give you all I have, until my end,
But it’s now all in your hands to defend and mend.

One Saturday Maria and I had a 30-mile bike ride. It seemed perfect. We started at 7:00 a.m. in beautiful spring weather. At 10:30 a.m., when we stopped for a rest, we both felt wonderful. And then a brisk wind came. That was when our perfect day began to change.
By noon, we knew a serious thunderstorm was blowing our way. Dark clouds rolled up our of the southwest. A stinging wind burned our faces. There was no way to stay out of the storm. We would have to wait it out, but where?
Then things went from bad to worse. The temperature dropped suddenly. I looked up and saw the sky now turned dark green. Trees and crops were bent over by the wind. No animals were in sight.
Then a blue car stopped beside our bikes. The driver shouted, “Get in!” She looked frightened, and so did we. We did as she said. That was when the hail（冰雹）started. Ice, the size of golf balls, hit the windows of the car.
She drove fast to the north. Maria and I looked back at the black sky. Maria screamed, “Tornado（龙卷风）!” It was so close that I could see trees, doors, and all kinds of other things that this monster swallowed（吞）.
My heart moved up to my throat and was beating so hard, I thought it would jump out of my body. I had never been so frightened. We would never run faster than the tornado! The driver turned to us and said calmly, “There’s an overpass（立交桥）ahead. We’ll stay under it for protection.”
When we parked, we jumped out of the car and ran to the wall of the overpass. Before I could count to 20, there came a loud noise. It sounded like a train passing overhead. Then, suddenly, it was over. We had made it.
Soon we were all laughing with relief（轻松）. We were shaken but excited. What a story I would have to tell at school.

No matter (无论) where you are, you can see birds. Here are some birdwatching tips that make it possible to find and get a good look at more birds.
Keep ________
Birds are easily startled (受惊) by loud noises and will fly to cover. It is almost impossible to get close to a bird, because birds hear much better than human beings do. By making less noise, you can get much closer to a bird. A new bird watcher, when seeing an especially beautiful bird, will shout: “WOW! LOOK AT THAT! IT’S RIGHT OVER THERE!” However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.
Avoid sudden movements
Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement. Getting close to a bird means following it, moving slowly. A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous enough to fly away.
Be ________
Some birds are always flying here and there, some are jumping up and down. It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves. A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.
Try pishing
Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird. When this happens, bird watchers try a skill called pishing. A low whistled pish by blowing air through your closed teeth can attract (吸引) small birds to the watching place. Here’s how to pish: Clench (咬紧) your teeth, open your lips and whisper the word pish.
Just go outside and look around. Use these tips to see more birds and have fun!
Tips for birdwatching
If you want to have a close look at birds, you should ____56____ these tips.
Keep ____57____
»Birds will fly away to ____58____ from loud noise.
»It is better to speak in a low ____59____ when seeing beautiful birds.
Avoid sudden movements
»Moving ____60____ will make birds startled.
»Birds will feel ____61____ about a small movement like swinging binoculars.
Be ____62____

Try pishing
»Sometimes you move slowly and quietly, ____64____ you still can’t watch the birds carefully.

The Earth Day was set up in 1970. Now, it is a worldwide event because the Earth is facing a lot of problems. Do you know why? Let’s listen to what the Earth says.
Earth Says
I am the mother Earth,
Filled with water, air, and life,
Humans, trees, birds, water, animals, and wildlife.
I spin and turn all year round the orbit,
To give you all the seasons and climate.
You people use my land, air, water, and soil,
But keep on filling it with litter and allowing it to spoil.
I provide you with air, food, and home to live,
With greedy lust, you destroy the nature I give,
And plot your own nature’s death.
The air you fill with smoke,
Makes my breath choke.
You make my heart fill with strife,
By cutting down the green forests,
And pushing up the green-house gases.
What was once a clean sea and pure soil,
Is now all barren, clogged with waste and oil.
How long can I stand the trouble?
I start to scream and tremble.
I give you all I have, until my end,
But it’s now all in your hands to defend and mend.
29. What is the mother Earth like according to Stanza (诗节) 1?
A. Angry. B. Worried. C. Generous. D. Comfortable.
30. What picture comes to your mind after reading Stanza 3?

C. Mother can’t stand the noisy boy. D. There are no seats, so we have to stand.
【答案】29. C 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【分析】本篇诗歌从地球母亲的角度告诫人们要节约资源和爱护地球环境。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一诗节中“I spin and turn all year round the orbit, To give you all the seasons and climate.”可知，地球母亲一年到头不停地绕着轨道旋转就是为了送给人们四季和气候，由此可知地球母亲应是一个慷慨的人。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。通读第三诗节可知，本节主要讲述了人类的所作所为使得地球母亲不堪重负，所以从本节我们应该能想象出一个“生病的”地球。故选D。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。结合第二、三诗节和第四诗节中“I give you all I have, until my end…”可知，尽管人类给地球母亲制造了很多“麻烦”，地球母亲仍然给予人类她所拥有的东西，由此可推知地球母亲应是“忍受”了人类制造的“麻烦”，所以“stand”在此应是“忍受”的意思，选项C“妈妈不能忍受那个吵闹的男孩”与此划线单词意思类似。故选C。

One Saturday Maria and I had a 30-mile bike ride. It seemed perfect. We started at 7:00 a.m. in beautiful spring weather. At 10:30 a.m., when we stopped for a rest, we both felt wonderful. And then a brisk wind came. That was when our perfect day began to change.
By noon, we knew a serious thunderstorm was blowing our way. Dark clouds rolled up our of the southwest. A stinging wind burned our faces. There was no way to stay out of the storm. We would have to wait it out, but where?
Then things went from bad to worse. The temperature dropped suddenly. I looked up and saw the sky now turned dark green. Trees and crops were bent over by the wind. No animals were in sight.
Then a blue car stopped beside our bikes. The driver shouted, “Get in!” She looked frightened, and so did we. We did as she said. That was when the hail（冰雹）started. Ice, the size of golf balls, hit the windows of the car.
She drove fast to the north. Maria and I looked back at the black sky. Maria screamed, “Tornado（龙卷风）!” It was so close that I could see trees, doors, and all kinds of other things that this monster swallowed（吞）.
My heart moved up to my throat and was beating so hard, I thought it would jump out of my body. I had never been so frightened. We would never run faster than the tornado! The driver turned to us and said calmly, “There’s an overpass（立交桥）ahead. We’ll stay under it for protection.”
When we parked, we jumped out of the car and ran to the wall of the overpass. Before I could count to 20, there came a loud noise. It sounded like a train passing overhead. Then, suddenly, it was over. We had made it.
Soon we were all laughing with relief（轻松）. We were shaken but excited. What a story I would have to tell at school.

49. clear skies
50. some time
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇全球的天气预报。
【46题详解】
句意：我们来看一看全世界的天气状况。根据“First over to Asia…Over to Europe…over to North America”可知，下文主要介绍的是全世界的天气状况，结合所给词汇，around the world表示“全世界”符合句意。故填around the world。
【47题详解】
句意：由于台风的影响，中国南部在未来几天将会下雨。根据“because of typhoon”可知，台风的到来会造成雨天的情况。形容词rainy表示“多雨的”，在句中作表语。故填rainy。
【48题详解】
句意：在新加坡，我们会看到少量降雨以及30度左右的高温。根据“around 30 degrees”及常识可知，气温在30度属于高温天气了。high temperatures表示“高温”。故填high temperatures。
【49题详解】
句意：但是我们可以在哥本哈根看到晴天，气温在20度左右。根据“But”以及“around 20 degrees”可知，哥本哈根的天气与挪威的相反，天气状况很好。clear skies表示“晴天”。故填clear skies。
【50题详解】
句意：潮湿的天气将会持续一段时间。根据“starting from Texas all the way to the northeast over this weekend”可知，潮湿的天气会持续一段时间。some time表示“一段时间”。故填some time。
D) 根据所给汉语提示完成句子，并将答案写在横线上。
51. 南京的冬天既不冷也不热。(not...or...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】The weather in the winter of Nanjing is not too cold or too hot.
【解析】
【详解】天气：weather；冬天：winter；既不……也不……：not...or...；冷：cold；热：hot。根据题干可知，指的是南京的天气情况，因此the weather作主语，in the winter of Nanjing作定语放在后面，is作系动词，not too cold or too hot来表达“不是太冷也不是太热”。故填The weather in the winter of Nanjing is not too cold or too hot.
52. 幸运地是，有足够的空间给我移动。(space....)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Luckily, there was enough space for me to move./Luckily, there is enough space for me to move.
【解析】
【详解】幸运地是：luckily；足够的：enough；空间：space；给我：for me；移动：move。题干表述的内容用一般现在时或者一般过去时均可，luckily放在句首作状语，首字母大写，题干中的“有”可以用there be结构，space是不可数名词，be动词用was/is，enough修饰名词space放在前面，for me紧随其后，最后不定式to move作宾补。故填Luckily, there was enough space for me to move./Luckily, there is enough space for me to move.
53. 一切都被盖在厚厚的白雪下。(cover...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Everything is covered in deep white snow.
【解析】
【详解】一切：everything；盖：cover；厚厚的白雪：deep white snow。时态用一般现在时，“一切”和“盖”之间存在被动关系，因此用被动语态，结构时be done，everthing是代词，be动词用is，cover的过去分词是covered。故填Everything is covered in deep white snow.
54. 玄武湖是观鸟极好的地方。(perfect...to go...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】Xuan Wu Lake is a perfect place to go birdwatching.
【解析】
【详解】玄武湖：Xuan Wu Lake；好地方：perfect place；观鸟：go birdwatching。根据题干内容可知，时态用一般现在时，主语是个地方，be动词用is，perfect是辅音音素开头的单词，冠词用a，后跟不定式to go birdwatching。故填Xuan Wu Lake is a perfect place to go birdwatching.
55. 我们经常看到很多人在那里观鸟。(watch birds...)
___________________________________________________
【答案】We often see lots of (many/a lot of) people watch birds there.
【解析】
【详解】see sb do sth“看见某人做某事”，强调经常发生的动作；often“经常”；lots of/many/a lot of“许多”；people“人们”；watch birds“观鸟”；there“在那里”，副词作状语放在句末，句子是一般现在时，主语we是复数形式，动词用原形，故填We often see lots of (many/a lot of) people watch birds there.
六、阅读填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）
A)
请认真阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在表格中各小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
No matter (无论) where you are, you can see birds. Here are some birdwatching tips that make it possible to find and get a good look at more birds.
Keep ________
Birds are easily startled (受惊) by loud noises and will fly to cover. It is almost impossible to get close to a bird, because birds hear much better than human beings do. By making less noise, you can get much closer to a bird. A new bird watcher, when seeing an especially beautiful bird, will shout: “WOW! LOOK AT THAT! IT’S RIGHT OVER THERE!” However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.
Avoid sudden movements
Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement. Getting close to a bird means following it, moving slowly. A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous enough to fly away.
Be ________
Some birds are always flying here and there, some are jumping up and down. It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves. A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.
Try pishing
Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird. When this happens, bird watchers try a skill called pishing. A low whistled pish by blowing air through your closed teeth can attract (吸引) small birds to the watching place. Here’s how to pish: Clench (咬紧) your teeth, open your lips and whisper the word pish.
Just go outside and look around. Use these tips to see more birds and have fun!
Tips for birdwatching

»Pishing is a _____65_____ to help attract birds.
【答案】56. follow##use
57. quiet 58. hide
59. voice 60. suddenly
61. nervous
62. patient
63. waiting
64. but 65. skill
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些近距离赏鸟的方法。
【56题详解】
通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一些近距离赏鸟的方法，所以如果我们想要近距离赏鸟的话，我们应该遵循或者使用本文提及的方法；遵循：follow，动词；使用：use，动词；情态动词should后的动词应用原形。故填follow/use。
【57题详解】
根据第二段“Birds are easily startled by loud noises and will fly to cover.”可知，鸟类很容易受惊，然后飞走，所以如果我们想要近距离赏鸟的话就应该保持安静，因此第二空应填形容词“quiet（安静的）”作表语。故填quiet。
【58题详解】
根据第二段“Birds are easily startled by loud noises and will fly to cover.”可知，鸟类很容易受惊，所以它们都会飞走以躲避噪音，hide from“躲避……”，因此此空应填不定式中的动词原形“hide”。故填hide。
【59题详解】
根据第二段“However, the same message can be whispered. The result is that the bird is more likely to stay there for everyone to see, for a long look.”可知，如果人们小声说话的话，鸟类会更可能呆在原地让人们观赏，也就是说赏鸟的时候，人们最好小声说话，in a low voice“小声说话”。故填voice。
【60题详解】
根据第三段“Just as loud noises startle birds, so does a sudden movement.”可知，正如巨大的噪音会吓到鸟一样，突然的动作也会吓到鸟，所以此空应填副词“suddenly（突然地）”修饰动词“move”，意为“突然地移动”。故填suddenly。
【61题详解】
根据第三段“A sudden movement, even when swinging your binoculars up to your eyes, can make a bird nervous…”可知，突然的移动，甚至当你把双筒望远镜举到眼睛上时，都会使鸟感到紧张，所以此空应填形容词“nervous（紧张不安的）”作表语。故填nervous。
【62题详解】
根据第四段中“It takes long time to wait for the birds to show themselves.”可知，等待鸟儿现身需要很长时间，所以赏鸟时人们要有耐心，因此此空应填形容词“patient（有耐心的）”作表语。故填patient。
【63题详解】
根据第四段“A sparrow jumping around in a bush will finally move into a place where you can get a good look.”可知，一只在灌木丛中跳跃的麻雀最终会移动到一个你可以好好看一看的地方，也就是说只要继续等待的话麻雀就会跳到你面前供你观赏；再结合短语“keep doing sth.（继续做某事）”可知，此空应填动词“wait（等待）”的动名词形式waiting作宾语。故填waiting。
【64题详解】
根据倒数第二段“Sometimes, no matter how slowly and quietly you move, you just cannot get a good look at the bird.”可知，有时候，无论你移动得多慢多安静，你都无法好好观赏这只鸟；由此可知，有时候，虽然你已经移动得很慢很安静了，但是你还是无法好好观赏鸟，所以这两者之间是转折关系，因此此空应填转折连词but。故填but。
【65题详解】
根据倒数第二段“…bird watchers try a skill called pishing.”可知，“pishing”是一种赏鸟时可以用上的技能。故填skill。
B)
