V. 阅读理解（A篇每小题1分，B – E篇每小题2分，共35分）

A

Every English learner needs to know how to ask for something in English.There are a number of ways to do this. If you know anyone has anything: you can ask for it with a polite question. If you don't know,it's possible to ask for something with a yes or no question. Be careful not to use the direct expressions. In other words,don't say “Give me that”,but ask kindly as the following examples,“Do you have a pen I could borrow?”“Is there any wine?”“Did you buy any bread?”If you know or see anyone has anything,ask a polite question with“could”“may”or“might".It's also possible to use“can”in some special situations. In the past，can”was not used when people asked for something,but meant ability.In the UK,people mainly use“Can you lend me ...?”or“Can I have ...?”In the Us,this is still considered to be wrong and“May I have ...?”is preferred.

It's common to use“Could you lend/hand/ give ...?”You can also use:“May/Can I borrow ...?”“Could/Can you lend me ...?”“May I have ...?"“Could you hand/give me ...?” Do not begin a sentence with“please",but you can add “please”at the end of the sentence to be polite.

41.What can we ask if we know anyone has anything?

A.A direct question.                B.A no question.   

C.A yes question.                  D.A polite question

42.What can Lucy say politely if she wants some coffee?

A.Pass me some coffee              B.Is there any coffee?

C.Give me some coffee.              D.Take some coffee to me.

43.What's the main idea of the passage?

A.How to express or ask politely.          B.What to do when we are polite.

C.How to describe our ideas.          D.What to do with our language problems.

Dear Rita,

How are you? Last time you asked me about the greatest invention in my eyes. I have also discussed it with my best friends,Anna, Sue and Kris.We have different ideas. Anna thinks it is the high-speed railway; Sue, the shared bike;Kris,the online shopping; and I prefer the Internet. The Internet is just like a net, and it connects us with the world. In the past,it was nearly impossible for people to communicate immediately with people in other countries. They had to spend a long time to reach their destinations (目的地), and not everyone could do that. But the Internet has made the impossible possible.Now we can communicate with foreigners online...

The Internet also helps us know what is happening around the world, and has made our life and work easier. In recent years,shopping online is very popular. We can just stay at home and buy what we need online. We can also do online office work and distance education. Besides, we can watch movies, listen to music and even play games to relax ourselves on the Internet.

So,I think that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions. It has changed our world! Although there are still many problems with the Internet, they will be solved in the near future. As a student we should make good use of the Internet!

Yours,

Martin.

With her eyes always feeling tired as she prepared for an exam,16-year-old Sun Run went to the hospital with her parents in January. She was shocked when she found out that her eyesight dropped from 5.0 to 4.6.“A few of my friends have had the same experience lately,”Sun said.

In fact,poor eyesight among Chinese primary and high school students rose from 59.2 percent to 70.6 percent in the first six months of 2020，according to the Ministry of Education.

To protect students’ eyesight, the Chinese government has worked out new requirements for school supplies and equipment that will take effect (生效)on March 1,2022. For example,according to the requirements, the size of text in students’ textbooks should be no smaller than nine-point(小五号).

Teachers should also avoid using projectors(投影仪)or other multimedia equipment(多媒体设备)that are too bright, Beijing Daily reported.

There are also requirements for desk and classroom lights. For example, these lights should give off as little blue light as possible.

Blue light is bad for our eyes,as it can kill the photoreceptor cells(感光细胞)we need for vision，according to Harvard Medical School. Many of the electronic devices(电子设备)we use every day，including our phones and computer screens, give off blue light.

As the global pandemic(传染病)speeds up,many are wondering about whether the face masks(口罩)really work and when it's proper to wear them. Most people from the East believe that wearing a mask is necessary to control the spread of NCP(新冠肺炎).But people in the West generally would argue that unless one is already ill,wearing a mask is simply unnecessary.

In Eastern countries，mask-wearing is mostly due to their cultures. In fact，people in the East wear masks not just to protect themselves from illness but also for all kinds of other reasons. In China, masks are worn in other situations in daily life, such as doing housework or visiting parents in the hospital. They can give people the comfort of being protected.

In recent years, some of Asian people wear masks just to make themselves look good. Young people in Japan, for example, like to wear masks as a fashion, expressing their personal style through special drawings and patterns.

Some sociologists(社会学家)even make some deeper study about the different ideas about wearing masks between Eastern countries and Western countries.

In Asia,wearing a face mask is also a direct expression of group values With one's face half covered, one becomes part of the group.“Peopl communicated their responsibilities (责任) to the social group of which the were members,”wrote Peter Bachr, a researcher in sociology(社会学) Lingnan University，Hong Kong.

In Western countries,however,          .As a member in the city, it's one's duty to prevent the spread of illness by following proper hygienic(卫生的) steps，such as washing one's hands and not getting touch with others. But a face mask is showing some signs of illness. They will never do what they don't want to do for the public.

Whether from the East or the West, social culture and peer pressure (同伴压力)have played an important role in one's decision about whether or not to wear a mask.That’s because human(人类)belong to society,who will properly consider what other members of society think of us. The most important thing is to respect others’ opinions, no matter how different they are.

56. According to the passage.        people like to wear masks to make themselves look fashionable.

A.French         B.American       C.Japanese         D.Chinese

57.Which of the following sentences can be put in the         ?

A.group values are more important

B. personal values are more important

C.people are not afraid of the spread of illness

D. people try their best to prevent the spread of illness

58.From the passage, we can infer that      .       .

A.Western people regard wearing masks as a sign to show illness

B.if a Westerner finds his friends around him wearing masks, he may also wear a mask

C.Eastern people wear masks, but Western people think it unnecessary

D.if an Easterner wears a mask, his friends around him will keep away from him.

59.If we put the passage into parts,which of the following is the best?

A.1/234/56/7         B.123/45/67        C.1/23/456/7       D.12/34/567

Most bikes today have two wheels,but you've probably seen other kinds,too.

Some people start riding bikes that have three wheels. The third wheel makes the bike easier to balance. These bikes are called tricycles. As you've seen,the bi- in bicycle means“two”.The tri- in tricycle means“three”.Bikes with three wheels aren't just for young children. They matter to adults because bikes with three wheels can help move people or things. The most common kind of adult tricycle is the rickshaw(黄包车).Rickshaws are used as bike taxis in many parts of the world.

Some bikes also have only one wheel and no handlebars(把手).These bikes are called unicycles. The first part of the word,uni-,means “one”.Riding a bike with only one wheel is a balancing act - that's why unicycles are used in the circus(马戏团).

There are also bikes with four wheels. Bikes with four wheels are called quadracycles. Again, the first part of the word refers to the number of wheels.In this case,quadra- means“four”.

65.Are there other kinds of bikes besides bicycles today?

                                                             .

66. What are rickshaws used as?

                                                             .

67. Where are unicycles used?

68. Do you like bikes with four wheels?Why or why not?

Besides China，many    79   foreign countries have also introduced garbage-sorting rules.In developed countries,the recycling rate(率) of rubbish is    80  higher,thanks to their sorting systems.
