八、阅读理解(满分24分)

Hi,guys!Last week I read a book called Rabbits in Australia.Some people may think rabbits look cute,but when they enter in large numbers,it's a problem.In Australia,rabbits have crowded into the land.They eat the plants that farmers grow.They cat the plants other animals need to eat,so other animals find it hard to live.
These days I'm reading Moby Dick.It's considered to be the "Great American Novel",or one of the greatest novels of all time.The story happens on a whaling ship that sails the seas to find Moby Dick,a very large whale (鲸鱼).

Chu was to the south of Wei,but this man couldn't tell the difference when the wheeler rode away to the north.On the way,he met a traveler.When the traveler knew that he was going to Chu,he asked, "Chu is in the south.When can you arrive there if you go north?" The man didn't care,because his horse was the best and could run quickly.The traveler said, "Your horse is fast,but it will be farther and farther away from Chu in this direction.You will never reach Chu."
The man still didn't worry about that,because he took enough money and food.So the traveler said, "But you're still going the wrong way." The man said, "It doesn't matter.My wheeler is very skilled!" After hearing that,the traveler didn't say anything and watched helplessly as the man went away.

24.(6分)Americans use many expressions (习语) with the word "dog".Many people in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.They take their dogs for walks,let them play outside and give them good food and medical care.However,dogs without owners live a different kind of life.The expression,to live a dog's life describes a person who has an unhappy life.
Some people say we live in a dog﹣eat﹣dog world.That means many people are competing for the same things,such as good jobs.They say that to be successful,a person has to work like a dog.This means they have to work very,very hard.
Still,people say that every dog has its day.This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life.To be successful,people often have to learn new skills.Yet,some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks.They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.
People also use dog expressions to describe the weather.The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year.A rainstorm may cool the weather.But we do not want it to rain too hard.We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.

25.(6分)Time passes quickly when we play on our mobile phone.But when we get down to work and study,one hour feels like a year.Why are we so interested in mobile phones but easily bored by studying?
In fact,this is because of something small and hard to see:dopamine (多巴胺) .Dopamine is a pleasure chemical (化学物质) that makes people feel good.
Compared with studying,playing on mobile phones makes our brains produce more dopamine.When we use our mobile phones,we don't know what we'll see next.This uncertainty(不确定性) makes dopamine active.And to find more dopamine,we keep on playing our phones.Studying doesn't provide such uncertainty.
Can we do something to change that?According to Harvard Medical School's Trevor Haynes,apps can become less interesting if we turn off notice or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time on apps to avoid using them too much.
As for studying,we could cheek our progress daily or weekly.We could also look for interesting topics related to (涉及) our textbook.Use what we've learned to practice in the real world.These will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.
(1)When do people have more dopamine?
A.When they use their mobile phones.

C.When they set time on apps.
D.When they look for boring topics.

【解答】in在......里面;with随着;by通过;on在......上面;根据"It's impolite to stand...your bands in your pockets when you're talking with the elder."可知,当你和长辈说话时,把手插在口袋里是不礼貌的,因此选with符合题意。

【解答】根据"I don't know who…the problem"可知此处应是疑问词who后加不定式作know的宾语,故排除CD选项;且此处有talk to sb.about sth."和某人讨论关于某事",所以the problem前需要用about;此处的who代替sb.,作talk to的宾语。

24.(6分)Americans use many expressions (习语) with the word "dog".Many people in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.They take their dogs for walks,let them play outside and give them good food and medical care.However,dogs without owners live a different kind of life.The expression,to live a dog's life describes a person who has an unhappy life.

Still,people say that every dog has its day.This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life.To be successful,people often have to learn new skills.Yet,some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks.They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.

(2)词义猜测题。根据第三段前两句Still,people say that every dog has its day.This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life.(尽管如此,人们还是说每只狗都有它的一天。这意味着每个人在一生中都有一段成功的时期。)可知,"每只狗都有它的一天"意思是"每个人都有一段成功的时期",故选:B。
(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段首句People also use dog expressions to describe the weather.(人们也用狗的表情来形容天气。)可知,这与D选项"人们可以用"狗"这个词来形容房子。"描述不符,D项是错的,故选:D。

25.(6分)Time passes quickly when we play on our mobile phone.But when we get down to work and study,one hour feels like a year.Why are we so interested in mobile phones but easily bored by studying?
In fact,this is because of something small and hard to see:dopamine (多巴胺) .Dopamine is a pleasure chemical (化学物质) that makes people feel good.
Compared with studying,playing on mobile phones makes our brains produce more dopamine.When we use our mobile phones,we don't know what we'll see next.This uncertainty(不确定性) makes dopamine active.And to find more dopamine,we keep on playing our phones.Studying doesn't provide such uncertainty.
Can we do something to change that?According to Harvard Medical School's Trevor Haynes,apps can become less interesting if we turn off notice or change the screen colors to black and white.We can also set time on apps to avoid using them too much.
As for studying,we could cheek our progress daily or weekly.We could also look for interesting topics related to (涉及) our textbook.Use what we've learned to practice in the real world.These will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.
(1)When do people have more dopamine? A
A.When they use their mobile phones.
B.When they know what will happen next.
C.When they set time on apps.
D.When they look for boring topics.
(2)What's the last paragraph (段落) mainly about? D
A.When we can check our progress.
B.Why we stop playing mobile phone.
C.What we have learned to practice.
D.How we can make learning interesting.
(3)Where can we read this passage? A
A.In a study magazine.
B.In a story book.
C.In a travel guide.
D.In a history report.
【分析】短文主要讲了玩手机时时间过得很快,但是学习时却感觉一小时像一年那样漫长。原因是因为我们对手机感兴趣,但对学习容易感到无聊。这是因为多巴胺的缘故,多巴胺是一种使人感到愉快的化学物质。相比于学习,玩手机会让我们的大脑产生更多的多巴胺。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第三段中的When we use our mobile phones,we don't know what we'll see next.This uncertainty makes dopamine active.(当我们使用手机时,我们不知道接下来会看到什么。这种不确定性会让多巴胺变得活跃。)可知,人们使用手机时有更多的多巴胺,故选:A。
(2)段落大意题。根据最后一段As for studying,we could cheek our progress daily or weekly.We could also look for interesting topics related to our textbook.Use what we've learned to practice in the real world.These will make knowledge much more interesting to learn.(至于学习,我们可以每天或每周检查自己的进度。我们也可以寻找与课本相关的有趣话题。把我们学到的东西在现实世界中练习。这会让知识学习起来更有趣。)可知,最后一段主要讲我们怎样才能使学习变得有趣,故选:D。
(3)推理判断题。根据第一段Time passes quickly when we play on our mobile phone.But when we get down to work and study,one hour feels like a year.Why are we so interested in mobile phones but easily bored by studying?
(当我们玩手机的时候,时间过得很快。但当我们开始工作和学习的时候,一个小时就像一年。为什么我们对手机如此感兴趣,却很容易因为学习而感到无聊)以及通读全文可知,短文主要讲了玩手机时时间过得很快,但是学习时却感觉一小时像一年那样漫长。原因是因为我们对手机感兴趣,但对学习容易感到无聊。这是因为多巴胺的缘故,多巴胺是一种使人感到愉快的化学物质。相比于学习,玩手机会让我们的大脑产生更多的多巴胺。它与学习有关,因此可判断我们在一本学习杂志上可以读这段文章,故选:A。
【点评】首先要通读全文,了解文章大意,紧紧抓住上下文语境所提供的信息,然后明确词意,结合排除法逐一选出答案,最后再通读全文,核对答案。
九、阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。
26.(6分)We all need a healthy environment,but we produce waste every day,and it is harmful to our environment.Repeat these three words daily:reduce,reuse and recycle.
Reduce
Reduce means "use less",Do not waste things.It saves money and causes less pollution.Do Dot order more food than you can finish.Turn off the lights when you do not need them.Before you buy something new,think if it is really necessary because maybe the old one is just as good!
Reuse
Reuse means "use again".Use things for as long as possible.Look after them so that they will last.Repair them if possible.Do not throw them away and buy new ones.Do not use paper cups or paper bags.
Recycle
Recycle means "change things into something else to be reused".We throw tons of rubbish away each year,and we have to make a change.Divide your rubbish into plastic,glass,and paper.Develop a recycling policy for the whole community.Buy products such as recycled paper to help save trees.
We cannot hope for fast change,but we can take these simple steps today.Let's save the world for our grandsons and granddaughters tomorrow!
(1)What words are we advised to repeat every day?(不超过10个词)
Reduce,reuse and recycle.
(2)Why should we think whether it is necessary before buying something new?(不超过10个词)
Because maybe the old one is just as good.
(3)What step is it if we change an old umbrella into a shopping bag? (不超过5个词)
Recycle.
【分析】本文主要介绍了三个有关环境的关键词:减少,再利用和循环利用。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第一段Repeat these three words daily:reduce,reuse and recycle.(每天重复这三个词:减少、再利用和循环利用。)可知每天重复这三个词:减少、再利用和循环利用,故答案为Reduce,reuse and recycle.
(2)细节理解题。根据第二段Before you buy something new,think if it is really necessary because maybe the old one is just as good!(在你买新东西之前,想想是否真的有必要,因为也许旧的也一样好!)可知我们买新东西之前,想想是否真的有必要,因为也许旧的也一样好,故答案为Because maybe the old one is just as good.
(3)推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Recycle means "change things into something else to be reused".(回收的意思是"把东西变成别的东西再使用"。)可推知如果我们把一把旧伞变成一个购物袋,这应该是回收再利用这一步骤,故答案为Recycle.
【点评】做题时首先对原文材料迅速浏览,掌握全文的主旨大意。其次,细读题材,各个击破。掌握全文的大意之后,细细阅读材料后的问题,弄清每题要求后,带着问题,再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息。
