I fell in love with the Little Free Library concept years ago on vacation. The concept of free literature-sharing boxes posted in neighborhoods and public spaces hooked me. For a booklover, this represented bliss(快乐). At home, my bedside table sprouts(长出)books and from the floor rises a mountainous to-be-read pile. My husband wasn’t the least bit surprised when I suggested starting our own Little Free Library- As a writer and introvert(内向的人), I welcomed the idea of saying hello to other booklovers on occasion.
The following winter, my husband built a copy of our Irish garden shed(棚屋)with a framed glass door on the front and, in the spring, mounted(安装)it on a post in front of our house. We filled the shelves with books, and since then, visitors have refilled them with literary fiction, romances, mysteries, science fiction, cowboy westerns, young-adult fiction, poetry, how-to’s, self-help and a range of other nonfiction.
For a time after COVID-19 first struck, public libraries shut down, and Amazon prioritized the delivery of essential and high-demand items. Books were less easily attained. Traffic to our library increased. I posted reminders about handwashing, and still, readers kept coming.
We wondered if we should close the Little Free Library and revisited(再次讨论)our original motivations for hosting it: to facilitate the exchange of books, to create a sense of community. Reading provides the necessary relief to the emotional crush(压力)of life. With this in mind, we added a written reminder on staying safe in the library.
Through my teens, reading transported me to other places and eras. Books taught me about life and how people overcame adversity(逆境). I no longer felt alone in the things I struggled against.
Aside from the entertainment books offer, studies show that reading exposes us to other cultures and perspectives. Literature sheds light on the justice to be found in social inclusion and community cohesion(凝聚). Self-esteem and understanding grow in equal measure as we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.
During this pandemic, the Little Free Library has reinforced the importance of literature and reading to our emotional and mental health. It’s become an alternate means of creating a community of people with mutual regard for humanity and the written word. We are together even when apart.
5.What attracted the author to host the Little Free Library?
A.The emotional crush of life.
B.The free literature-sharing concept.
C.The sense of self-esteem and social justice.
D.The importance of exchanging books with each other.
6.What is the husband’s attitude toward building the Little Free Library?
A.Objective. B.Supportive.
C.Indifferent. D.Doubtful.
7.What happened to the author’s Little Free Library during the pandemic?
A.It was not allowed to be used.
B.The number of books dropped sharply.
C.It was getting more popular than before.
D.Readers questioned the motivations for hosting it
8.What can we learn from Paragraph 5?
A.How reading shaped the author’s growth.
B.How we facilitated the exchange of books.
C.How the Little Free Library further developed.
D.How literature played a role in community building.
9.What is the benefit of the Little Free Library during the pandemic?

As the climate warms, birds are shrinking and their wingspans are growing, according to a new study. Researchers analyzed 70,716 birds from 52 kinds of North American migratory(迁徙的)bird species collected over 40 years. The authors say the study is the largest of its kind and that the findings are important to understanding how animals will adapt to climate change.
"We found almost all of the species were getting smaller." said lead author Brian Weeks, an assistant professor at the University of Michigan.
"The species were pretty diverse, but responding in a similar wav." he said. "The consistency was shocking."
He said studies of animal responses to climate change often focus on shifts in geographical range or timing of life events, like migration and birth. But this study suggests body morphology(形态)is a crucial third aspect.
"That's one major implication," he said, "It's hard to understand how birds will adapt without taking all three of these things into consideration."
The findings showed that from 1978 to 2016, the length of the birds' lower leg bone shortened by 2.4%. Over the same time, the wings lengthened by 1.3%.
The evidence suggests warming temperatures caused the decrease in body size, which in turn caused the increase in wing length.
"Migration is an incredibly taxing thing they do," Mr. Weeks said, explaining that the smaller body size means less energy available for the birds to complete their long journeys.
He says the birds most likely to survive migration were the ones with longer wingspans and smaller bodies.
The scientists aren't exactly sure why warmer temperatures cause birds to shrink. One theory is that smaller animals are better at cooling off, losing body heat more quickly.
10.What's the best title for the text?
A.All of the Birds Are Getting Smaller
B.Animals Are Adapting to Climate Change
C.Climate Change Is Causing Birds to Shrink
D.Scientists Are Finding Causes of Warm Climate
11.What made Brian Weeks feel astonished?
A.It took 40 years to collect 70,716 birds from North America.
B.Many birds are shrinking when responding to the climate change.
C.All migratory bird species were collected to do the important research.
D.So many researchers take part in the largest study to work out the findings.
12.What does the underlined word "taxing" most probably mean?
A.Tiring. B.Important
C.Easy. D.Pleasant
13.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.The migratory birds aren't big.
B.The temperatures will be higher.
C.The scientists will go on further study.
D.The smaller animals will surely live longer.
Making friends is a skill like many other skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some measures. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone. Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activities. Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.
Try to act self-confidently even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.
If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.
Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person-friendship is based on the mutual liking and” give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.
14.The best title of the text may be ______.
A.Friendship
B.How to Make Friends
C.Meeting New People
D.Facing the Unknown
15.You can’t make friends if you ______.
A.take some measures
B.go to where there are people
C.avoid meeting people
D.start a conversation
16.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Making friends needs practising.
B.Making friends needs to be more active in starting a conversation.
C.When meeting someone, make him feel nice and starting a conversation.
D.Before making friends with someone, judge if he’s too this or too that.
二、七选五
How is dining in space different from eating on Earth?
Spacesuits? Check! Oxygen? Check! Water? Check! Are we forgetting something? Food! If you send astronauts into space, you have to send along food as well. But what do astronauts eat, and how do they eat it? ___17___
First, and possibly most important, is nutrition (营养). Maintaining the astronauts' physical health is a top task for any space mission. Providing junk foods to eat, such as potato chips, sodas, and pizza, would make the astronauts feel unhealthy.
___18___ If the food that has been provided is distasteful, then the astronauts may avoid eating it. If you've ever tried to concentrate on something important while your stomach doesn't feel well, you'll know why the scientists in charge of a space mission want their astronauts to eat regularly.
The lack of gravity in a spacecraft also determines what foods can or cannot be eaten in space. Meals must be packaged carefully so they won't spill into the cabin. Liquids or tiny bits of food could get inside a machine or electronic device and damage it.___19___ A loose knife bouncing (弹起) around inside the cabin would be dangerous.
___20___ The weight of every object included in a spacecraft must be calculated in order to ensure that there is enough fuel and power to carry the craft safely into space and home again. ___21___ Most foods are stored in plastic bags, and often, the foods are dehydrated (脱水).When an astronaut is ready to eat, hot water is added to rehydrate the meal and warm it up.
Despite all these requirements, much of the food eaten in space is actually similar to what you might eat on any given day.
A.Variety and taste are also important.
B.Finally, weight is an important concern.
C.Food packaging is made to be as light as possible.
D.Believe it or not, they also have fresh fruits and vegetables.
E.Nutrition and practicality are important things to consider.
F.For the same reason sharp utensils are never used onboard.
G.Scientists take several factors into consideration as they plan meals for space.

“I’ve set about quilting, and I’ll make one for you,” my mother announced ____27____ over the phone one day. I tried to ____28____ her suggestion as it was too tiring for her, but she insisted.
My quilt was Mom’s last one. A month later, I got a call from Dad saying Mom was gone. A great sense of ____29____ overwhelmed me -- the pandemic took away my last chance to see Mom and show my love to her.
One day, I decided to give quilting a(n) ____30____ myself for my daughter. I carefully ____31____ the fabric I thought she would enjoy, and maybe I was still trying to make a ____32____ between Mom and myself in this way. Sometimes I’d picture us sitting together in the living room quilting together.
Finally, I got the quilt Mom ____33____ me. I opened it and what I saw caught my ____34____. It was exactly the same fabric I had chosen for my daughter!

六、读后续写
48.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Ant Bites
“Ow! Ow!” I shouted as I broke my jump rope rhythm: “Something, in my shoe is biting me.” I cried.
The first graders waiting to jump and the two rope turners circled around me on the dirt playground. My teacher, Miss Bell, heard me and hurried over.
“It’s still stinging me.” I cried as the circle of children opened for Miss Bell.
“Which foot is it?” she asked.
I stuck up my right foot as she bent down to inspect it. Just then, feeling a new sting, I yelped in pain.
“Here. Let’s take off your shoe.” instructed Miss Bell, squatting(蹲) down to get the shoe.
Then, I remembered the holes in my socks. Welfare socks didn’t last long. Holes in socks were a common thing for our family in the years following the Great Depression. Shoes got fresh paper inserted every Saturday to cover the holes in their soles. But socks with holes were just accepted. Socks with holes in the heels got pulled down so the hole wouldn’t show. Where there was a hole, there would soon be a blister. Every week as she washed our clothes, Mama would say, “Even if we’re poor and our clothes are worn out. We can still be clean.”
I began to cry from the pain in my foot, but I refused to let Miss Bell take off my shoe. I could not bear for her and the others to see the hole in my faded red sock.
“Come on, then. Let’s go inside to the office.”
A trail of first graders followed after us until Miss Bell told them to stay on the playground. I did my best to control my tears. Yet, each time the thing in my shoe stung me, I would let out a loud, “Oh, oh, oh!” Tears raced down my contorted(扭曲的) face.
Miss Womble, the fifth--grade teacher, came into the office. “Can I help? I know her. She lives next door to me.”
Miss Womble was a great neighbor. She had even played games with us on occasion. She put both hands on my shaking shoulders and looked into my distressed, red eyes.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答;
“Must be sock-eating ants. Oh, yes, I had a bite from one of those ants” she said.
Miss Bell handed her the first aid kit.

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了作者参加了第十六届自然英语竞赛,入围前十。作者感谢这次比赛和朋友的帮助,作者现在在舞台上感觉很放松,说话也很自信。
37.考查冠词。句意:暑假期间,我参加了第十六届自然英语竞赛,获得了前十的成绩,获得了宝贵的经验。序数词前用定冠词the,表示“第……”。故填the。
38.考查时态和语态。句意:暑假期间,我参加了第十六届自然英语竞赛,获得了前十的成绩,获得了宝贵的经验。提示词是并列谓语动词,与主语I之间是主动关系,描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时。故填gained。
39.考查非谓语动词。句意:我从没想过会走那么远。expect to do“期望做某事”,用不定式作宾语。故填to go。
40.考查连词。句意:但是,就在那一刻,我开始了漫长的旅程。根据句意,上下文表示转折关系;句首单词首字母大写。故填But。
41.考查名词。句意:我的一个队友,我在学校的好朋友,在比赛中给了我很多鼓励和建议。one of+可数名词复数,表示“……之一”。故填teammates。
42.考查名词。句意:她的想法新颖而有力,在与竞争对手竞争时,她保持着冷静。根据句意和空格前形容词性物主代词her可知,应填入名词competitor作宾语,意为“竞争者,对手”,又因竞争对手不止一个,应用其复数形式competitors。故填competitors。
43.考查定语从句。句意:她就像我的教练,教我如何在网上搜索相关资料,如何有逻辑地表达自己的观点。分析句子可知,空格处为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词coach,指人,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语,应使用关系代词who引导该定语从句。填who。
44.考查副词。句意:她就像我的教练,教我如何在网上搜索相关资料,如何有逻辑地表达自己的观点。修饰动词express用副词logically,意为“逻辑上;合乎逻辑”。所以填logically。
45.考查固定短语和介词。句意:多亏了这次比赛和我朋友的帮助,我现在在舞台上感觉很放松,说话也很自信。thanks to是固定短语,意为“多亏了”,to是介词。故填to。
46.考查状语从句的省略。句意:多亏了这次比赛和我朋友的帮助,我现在在舞台上感觉很放松,说话也很自信。在when, while, if, as if, though(或although), as, until, once, whether, unless, where等连词连接的状语从句中,常省略跟主句相同的主语和be动词。结合句意,分析子可知,“when (talk)”是时间状语从句,原句为“when I am talking”,符合状语从句省略条件,省略I am后,应保留现在分词talking。填talking。

48. “Must be sock-eating ants. Oh, yes, I had a bite from one of those ants” she said. I was relieved to hear what she said and knew that she was here to help me resolve the upcoming embarrassing situation. I thought when playing with her in the yard, she must have seen my holey socks, so she understood what I was worried about. But Miss Bell looked somewhat confused. After I took off my shoes, the pair of socks with holes appeared, but I was not embarrassed. Miss Womble continued, “Look, these little things have bitten the socks, causing some holes. Fortunately, having been bitten before I know what to do. Please pass me the first aid kit.” Then she gently helped me take off my socks.
Miss Bell handed her the first aid kit. She carefully applied potion on each bite. After the treatment, I put on my socks. At this time, I felt that the socks were not so ugly and embarrassing. Those holes were like open mouths, smiling happily. Even until now, I don’t know whether there are sock-eating ants, but I know there is a considerate teacher.
这是一篇读后续写,文章以破洞的袜子为线索,讲述了作者被有毒的蚂蚁叮咬了脚部,需要脱开袜子治疗,但自己的袜子有洞。虽然作者母亲常常教导他们袜子破洞没关系,干净最重要,但想到自己的破洞袜子会被同学和老师看见,作者内心感到尴尬,因此不愿意脱袜子。就在这时Miss Womble来了。
【详解】1.段落续写
①根据第一段首句“‘一定是吃袜子的蚂蚁。哦,是的,我被其中一只蚂蚁咬了一口,’她说。”可知,下文可描述作者和Miss Bell听到这个说法的反应,以及作者因此不为袜子有洞而感到尴尬。
①根据第二段首句“Miss Bell把急救箱递给她。”可知,下文可描述治疗完后的事情,以及作者的感悟。
2.续写线索
Miss Womble谎称有咬袜子的蚂蚁——作者明白Miss Womble是来帮自己——Miss Bell感到疑惑——作者没有为袜子有洞感到尴尬——治疗伤口——穿上袜子——感悟
