26-year-old Ste Burke was on his way home when three men came up to him asking if he wanted to buy a bike. They were trying to sell the £1,350 bike for £100. Not only that, Burke realized that there must be something wrong because there was still a lock on the bike. Then Burke immediately bought it for £80.
After he bought the bike, Burke posted a photo of it to social media in hopes of finding the first owner. “Has anyone lost his/her bike? I just bought this bike for £80 and it’s got a bike lock on it. It is clear that it’s from the Crosby area. I know it’s a £1,350 bike and I’d be heartbroken if it was mine,” wrote Burke.
Within hours, Burke received a phone call from a woman who knew the bike’s owner. A man whose house had been burgled(入室偷窃) earlier that very same week lost his bike. Since the man had saved up more than £1, 350 of his own money to buy the bike, he was very thankful for its return. The man tried to pay Burke the £80, but Burke refused, “I didn’t feel right accepting money from a man who had just had his house broken into.”
Burke has since been showered with social media praise for his honesty, although he says over and over that he did not return the bike for media attention. An owner of a bicycle store offered to give Burke a bike for free as a reward(奖赏) for his honesty.

7. Which of the following can best describe Burke?

A series of small earthquakes have shaken central Nebraska and become the talk of the area. According to the information on a website, there have been several quakes since the 9th this month in the heart of the state, centered on the town Arnold, which is about 225 miles west of the capital Lincoln. The first, a 3.3-magnitude(震级) quake, happened early that morning, followed by three on the following day, another on Sunday, and then the most recent earthquake on Monday. The strongest quake was the first one that struck on the 10th, which reached a magnitude of 3.7. The earthquakes were found about three miles below the surface. There haven’t been any reports of human injury or damage of buildings caused by the quakes, according to KWBE, a radio station.
“It is just kind of strange,” Becky Dailey, treasurer of the Arnold Chamber of Commerce, told that station, adding that people around town are running around and talking about the frequent quakes. Actually small quakes like these are not unusual. Just two minutes before Nebraska’s most recent earthquake, a separate one shook a city in the Dominican Republic, reaching a magnitude of 2.5. A couple of hours later, a 2.7-magnitude earthquake hit an area near Aguanga, in Southern California’s Riverside County. There were two more that day in different areas of Puerto Rico: a 2.9-magnitude quake and a 3.1-magnitude quake. Those were all small, but stronger quakes regularly rock the world — just not so often.
Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks. This sudden release of energy causes the waves that make the ground shake. Two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing(摩擦) against each other. After a while, the rocks break because of all the pressure that is built up. When the rocks break, the earthquake happens.
8. What do we know about the quakes in Nebraska?
A. There were six quakes in all.
B. They all happened within 24 hours.
C. They were centered on the capital Lincoln.
D. The biggest one reached a magnitude of 4.0.
9. According to KWBE, which statement about the quakes in Nebraska is true?
A. The quakes caused many buildings to fall.
B. The quakes caused damage to the crops.
C. The quakes were not felt by the locals.
D. The quakes were not dangerous.
10. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. That no human got injured in the quakes.
B. That quakes happened there so frequently.
C. That an earthquake took place in the state.
D. That people kept talking about the quakes.
11. What does the author want to show by mentioning the small quakes in Paragraph 2?
A. So many quakes happened on the 9th.
B. Small quakes can be easier to find now.
C. No big earthquakes happened these days.
D. Small quakes are actually very common.
Have you ever wondered why people drive on a different side of the road? It might seem bizarre that U. K. Drivers stay on the left, but they’re not the only ones. Around 35 percent of the world population do the same, including people in Ireland, Japan, and some Caribbean islands.
Originally, almost everybody traveled on the left side of the road. However their way of transport was quite different from today: Think about four legs instead of four wheels. For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their enemies. Getting on or off was also easier from the left side of the horse, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.
So why did people stop traveling on the left? Things changed in the late 1700s when large wagons(货车) pulled by several pairs of horses were used to transport farm products in France and the United States. The wagon driver sat behind the left horse, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left position, he wanted other wagons to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.
The British Government refused to give up their left-hand driving ways, and in 1773 introduced the General Highways Act, which encouraged driving on the left. This was later made law thanks to The Highway Act of 1835.
When Henry Ford showed his Model T in 1908, the driver’s seat was on the left, meaning that cars would have to drive on the right hand side of the road to allow front and back passengers to exit the car onto the roadside. However, British drivers remain on the left, and this is highly unlikely to change.
12. What does the underlined word “bizarre” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Funny. B. Strange.
C. Wrong. D. Difficult
13. Why did people riding the horse travel on the left in history?
A. It was safer to keep on the left
B. It was easier to carry goods.
C. It was easier for them to fight.
D. It was necessary to control the horse.
14. What made drivers of large wagons travel on the right?
A. Their sitting position.
B. The road conditions.
C. The number of horses.
D. The products in the wagons.
15. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?
A. UK Drivers Still Go On The Left
B. Why People Like Sitting On The Left Side
C. The History Of Transportation Means
D. The Reasons For Different Driving Sides

第二部分、读后续写
Long ago, at the time of the ancient Greeks, a powerful king lived in a place called Turkey. The king’s name was Midas.
King Midas had everything that a ruler might want and was loved by his family, especially his beautiful daughter, Marigold. But there was one thing Midas loved more than Marigold, and that was gold.
Every day, Midas stacked(叠放) his gold coins in neat towers, counting his gold. Each day, Midas took the towers down, piece by piece. Then he built them back up again.
One morning, Midas was taking a break from counting his gold. He looked out a window and saw all the birds fly out of a tree in his garden. “What is scaring all those birds?” he asked his daughter.
He and Marigold went to the garden to find out. In the garden, Midas and Marigold met an old man who lost his way. After some questions, Midas said, “I know your friend’s house and I’ll take you there. But first, come to my palace and share a meal with us!”
Midas treated the old man like a brother. The old man enjoyed a great dinner, and later slept in the king’s best guest room. The next morning, Midas took the old man to his friend’s house.
His friend, who happened to be a god, was happy to see his lost friend and wanted to thank Midas for his help. “Let me give you a reward for taking care of my friend,” said the god. “Tell me your greatest wish, and I will make the wish come true.”
Midas answered right away. “I want everything I touch to turn into gold!” said Midas.
“Are you sure you want that power?” the god asked.
“Oh yes, I’m sure,” Midas said. “Who wouldn’t want that?”
The god looked worried for just a moment. Then he said, “All right, I’ll give you your wish. So Midas’s wish came true. From that moment, everything that he touched with his hands turned to gold.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
On his way home, Midas skipped(跳跃) like a little boy because he was so happy to have the power.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few days later, Midas found the god again and cried to him.

Paragraph 1:
On his way home, Midas skipped like a little boy because he was so happy. He picked up a stone and it was changed into gold by the touch of his hand! He touched trees, bushes, and even the walls of his palace when he got there. Everything turned to gold !Midas laughed and shouted, “I’m the richest man on Earth!” Meanwhile, Midas picked up a bunch of grapes to eat, but they turned to gold. “How will I eat?” he thought. “I can’t eat gold!” At that moment, his daughter came in and threw her arms around him but was instantly turned into gold too!
Paragraph 2:
A few days later, Midas found the god again and cried to him. “Everything turned into gold , including my daughter . What a fool I was!” Midas cried loud.

26-year-old Ste Burke was on his way home when three men came up to him asking if he wanted to buy a bike. They were trying to sell the £1,350 bike for £100. Not only that, Burke realized that there must be something wrong because there was still a lock on the bike. Then Burke immediately bought it for £80.
After he bought the bike, Burke posted a photo of it to social media in hopes of finding the first owner. “Has anyone lost his/her bike? I just bought this bike for £80 and it’s got a bike lock on it. It is clear that it’s from the Crosby area. I know it’s a £1,350 bike and I’d be heartbroken if it was mine,” wrote Burke.
Within hours, Burke received a phone call from a woman who knew the bike’s owner. A man whose house had been burgled(入室偷窃) earlier that very same week lost his bike. Since the man had saved up more than £1, 350 of his own money to buy the bike, he was very thankful for its return. The man tried to pay Burke the £80, but Burke refused, “I didn’t feel right accepting money from a man who had just had his house broken into.”
Burke has since been showered with social media praise for his honesty, although he says over and over that he did not return the bike for media attention. An owner of a bicycle store offered to give Burke a bike for free as a reward(奖赏) for his honesty.

A series of small earthquakes have shaken central Nebraska and become the talk of the area. According to the information on a website, there have been several quakes since the 9th this month in the heart of the state, centered on the town Arnold, which is about 225 miles west of the capital Lincoln. The first, a 3.3-magnitude(震级) quake, happened early that morning, followed by three on the following day, another on Sunday, and then the most recent earthquake on Monday. The strongest quake was the first one that struck on the 10th, which reached a magnitude of 3.7. The earthquakes were found about three miles below the surface. There haven’t been any reports of human injury or damage of buildings caused by the quakes, according to KWBE, a radio station.
“It is just kind of strange,” Becky Dailey, treasurer of the Arnold Chamber of Commerce, told that station, adding that people around town are running around and talking about the frequent quakes. Actually small quakes like these are not unusual. Just two minutes before Nebraska’s most recent earthquake, a separate one shook a city in the Dominican Republic, reaching a magnitude of 2.5. A couple of hours later, a 2.7-magnitude earthquake hit an area near Aguanga, in Southern California’s Riverside County. There were two more that day in different areas of Puerto Rico: a 2.9-magnitude quake and a 3.1-magnitude quake. Those were all small, but stronger quakes regularly rock the world — just not so often.
Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks. This sudden release of energy causes the waves that make the ground shake. Two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing(摩擦) against each other. After a while, the rocks break because of all the pressure that is built up. When the rocks break, the earthquake happens.
8. What do we know about the quakes in Nebraska?
A. There were six quakes in all.
B. They all happened within 24 hours.
C. They were centered on the capital Lincoln.
D. The biggest one reached a magnitude of 4.0.
9. According to KWBE, which statement about the quakes in Nebraska is true?
A. The quakes caused many buildings to fall.
B. The quakes caused damage to the crops.
C. The quakes were not felt by the locals.
D. The quakes were not dangerous.
10. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. That no human got injured in the quakes.
B. That quakes happened there so frequently.
C. That an earthquake took place in the state.
D. That people kept talking about the quakes.
11. What does the author want to show by mentioning the small quakes in Paragraph 2?
A. So many quakes happened on the 9th.
B. Small quakes can be easier to find now.
C. No big earthquakes happened these days.
D. Small quakes are actually very common.
Have you ever wondered why people drive on a different side of the road? It might seem bizarre that U. K. Drivers stay on the left, but they’re not the only ones. Around 35 percent of the world population do the same, including people in Ireland, Japan, and some Caribbean islands.
Originally, almost everybody traveled on the left side of the road. However their way of transport was quite different from today: Think about four legs instead of four wheels. For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their enemies. Getting on or off was also easier from the left side of the horse, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.
So why did people stop traveling on the left? Things changed in the late 1700s when large wagons(货车) pulled by several pairs of horses were used to transport farm products in France and the United States. The wagon driver sat behind the left horse, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left position, he wanted other wagons to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.
The British Government refused to give up their left-hand driving ways, and in 1773 introduced the General Highways Act, which encouraged driving on the left. This was later made law thanks to The Highway Act of 1835.
When Henry Ford showed his Model T in 1908, the driver’s seat was on the left, meaning that cars would have to drive on the right hand side of the road to allow front and back passengers to exit the car onto the roadside. However, British drivers remain on the left, and this is highly unlikely to change.
12. What does the underlined word “bizarre” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Funny. B. Strange.
C. Wrong. D. Difficult
13. Why did people riding the horse travel on the left in history?
A. It was safer to keep on the left
B. It was easier to carry goods.
C. It was easier for them to fight.
D. It was necessary to control the horse.
14. What made drivers of large wagons travel on the right?
A. Their sitting position.
B. The road conditions.
C. The number of horses.
D. The products in the wagons.
15. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?
A. UK Drivers Still Go On The Left
B. Why People Like Sitting On The Left Side
C. The History Of Transportation Means
D. The Reasons For Different Driving Sides

第二部分、读后续写
Long ago, at the time of the ancient Greeks, a powerful king lived in a place called Turkey. The king’s name was Midas.
King Midas had everything that a ruler might want and was loved by his family, especially his beautiful daughter, Marigold. But there was one thing Midas loved more than Marigold, and that was gold.
Every day, Midas stacked(叠放) his gold coins in neat towers, counting his gold. Each day, Midas took the towers down, piece by piece. Then he built them back up again.
One morning, Midas was taking a break from counting his gold. He looked out a window and saw all the birds fly out of a tree in his garden. “What is scaring all those birds?” he asked his daughter.
He and Marigold went to the garden to find out. In the garden, Midas and Marigold met an old man who lost his way. After some questions, Midas said, “I know your friend’s house and I’ll take you there. But first, come to my palace and share a meal with us!”
Midas treated the old man like a brother. The old man enjoyed a great dinner, and later slept in the king’s best guest room. The next morning, Midas took the old man to his friend’s house.
His friend, who happened to be a god, was happy to see his lost friend and wanted to thank Midas for his help. “Let me give you a reward for taking care of my friend,” said the god. “Tell me your greatest wish, and I will make the wish come true.”
Midas answered right away. “I want everything I touch to turn into gold!” said Midas.
“Are you sure you want that power?” the god asked.
“Oh yes, I’m sure,” Midas said. “Who wouldn’t want that?”
The god looked worried for just a moment. Then he said, “All right, I’ll give you your wish. So Midas’s wish came true. From that moment, everything that he touched with his hands turned to gold.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
On his way home, Midas skipped(跳跃) like a little boy because he was so happy to have the power.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few days later, Midas found the god again and cried to him.

8. 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The first, a 3.3-magnitude(震级) quake, happened early that morning, followed by three on the following day, another on Sunday, and then the most recent earthquake on Monday.（第一次地震发生在当天凌晨，震级为3.3级，第二天发生了三次，周日又发生了一次，最近的一次地震发生在周一。）”可知，一共发生了6次地震。故选A。
9. 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“There haven’t been any reports of human injury or damage of buildings caused by the quakes, according to KWBE, a radio station.（据广播电台KWBE报道，目前还没有地震造成人员伤亡或建筑物损坏的报道。）”可推知，这些小地震都不危险。故选D。
10. 词句猜测题。根据划线词后面的“… adding that people around town are running around and talking about the frequent quakes.（……他还说，镇上的人都跑来跑去，谈论着频繁的地震。）”可知，It指的是频繁发生地震的现象。故选B。
11. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Actually small quakes like these are not unusual.（事实上，像这样的小地震并不罕见。）”可知，后面提到的那些小地震都是为了证明小地震其实很常见。故选D。
12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍现在大部分国家，车辆都是靠右行驶，但是有一些国家是靠左行驶，讲了由靠左行驶发展到靠右行驶的历史。
12. 词句猜测题。根据第一段的“Have you ever wondered why people drive on a different side of the road?（你有没有想过为什么人们在马路的另一边开车）”和划线词下文“U. K. drivers stay on the left, but they’re not the only ones.（英国的司机靠左行驶，但是他们不是唯一的一个）”可知，大多数地方都是靠右行驶，而英国司机靠左行驶，这看起来很奇怪，但并不是唯一一个。由此猜测划线词bizarre意为“奇怪的”，与strange同义。故选B。
13. 细节理解题。根据第二段的“For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their enemies. Getting on or off was also easier from the left side of the horse, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.（对于骑马的中世纪剑客来说，保持向左以使右臂靠近敌人是有道理的。从马的左侧上车或下也更容易，在路边比在中间更安全）”可知，历史上人们骑着马在左边行驶是因为对于他们来说更容易打仗，故选C。
14. 细节理解题。根据第三段的“The wagon driver sat behind the left horse, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left position, he wanted other wagons to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.（马车夫坐在左边的马后面，他的右臂可以自由地用鞭子驱赶马。由于他坐在左边，他想让其他的货车从他的左边通过，所以他一直在路的右边）”可知，大马车车夫坐着的位置使得驾驶大马车的司机靠右行驶，故选A。
15. 主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了现在大部分国家，车辆都是靠右行驶，但是有一些国家是靠左行驶，作者讲了由靠左行驶发展到靠右行驶的历史，所以这篇文章最好的题目是D项“不同驾驶侧的原因”。故选D。
16. A 17. C 18. D 19. E 20. G
这是一篇说明文。文章对如何改善英语发音提出了几点建议。
16. 根据后文“You cannot correct your pronunciation when you don’t know the rules of it. So, start improving your pronunciation by first making yourself clear about the knowledge.（如果你不知道发音的规则，你就不能纠正发音。所以，开始改善你的发音，首先要让自己对这项知识有清晰的认识）”可知，此处是指要学习发音规则，所以选项A“学习规则。”切合文意。故选A。
17. 根据小标题“Watch while listening.（边听边看）”和前文“Find an article with recording.（找一篇有录音的文章）”可知，此处是指边听录音边看文章，所以选项C“边听录音边看单词。”切合文意。故选C。
18. 根据前文“If there’s a letter or word that you want to improve upon, record yourself saying it.（如果有一个字母或单词你想要改进，把自己读出来的录下来）”和后文“Find the differences and improve your way of pronunciation.（找出区别，改进你的发音方式）”可知，此处是指将自己的发音录音和母语人士的进行比较，所以选项D“然后将其与母语人士的录音进行比较。”切合文意。故选D。
19. 根据小标题“Add correct stress to words.（给单词正确的重读）”和后文“For example, the word ‘introduce’ is pronounced with a stress at the end, so it sounds like this: ‘in-tro-DUCE’.（例如，‘introduce’这个单词在发音时在末尾重读，所以它听起来像这样：‘in-tro-DUCE’）”可知，此处是指有些单词的重读程度不同，所以选项E“这意味着在说某些词时要用更大的力量。”切合文意。故选E。
20. 根据前文“After learning how to say something correctly, you need to practice often.（在学会如何正确地发音之后，你需要经常练习）”和后文“With enough practice, you can get what sounds right too.（通过足够的练习，你也可以把听起来正确的东西说出来）”可知，此处是指要经常进行足够的正确发音练习，所以选项G“每天至少花30分钟，重复单词的正确发音。”切合文意。故选G。

Paragraph 1:
On his way home, Midas skipped like a little boy because he was so happy. He picked up a stone and it was changed into gold by the touch of his hand! He touched trees, bushes, and even the walls of his palace when he got there. Everything turned to gold !Midas laughed and shouted, “I’m the richest man on Earth!” Meanwhile, Midas picked up a bunch of grapes to eat, but they turned to gold. “How will I eat?” he thought. “I can’t eat gold!” At that moment, his daughter came in and threw her arms around him but was instantly turned into gold too!
Paragraph 2:
A few days later, Midas found the god again and cried to him. “Everything turned into gold , including my daughter . What a fool I was!” Midas cried loud. He now knew that gold was not the most important thing in his life. He wished with all his heart to enjoy a normal life. He wished with all his soul to have his daughter back. “My friend, go to the river and wash your hands,” the god said. Midas went to the river. When he returned to his palace, everything was back to what it was before and Marigold was waiting for him. King Midas hugged his daughter. From that day on, he counted only his blessings, and not his gold.
