A year passed and the Fairy came again to the boys.
The Fairy：I have brought you new books and will take the old ones back to Father Time.
Philip：May I keep my book a little longer？I haven't read it lately.
The Fairy：No，I must take it back.
Carl：I wish that I could look through my book just one more time.I can only read one page at a time，because when I turn the page it sticks and I can never open the book again that day.
The Fairy：Maybe you should check your books.She lit two little candles for them.To their great surprise，on one page there were ugly，black spots （黑点）while the very next page showed a lovely little picture.Even on the most beautiful pages there were ugly spots too.
Carl and Philip：Who did this？Every page was as white as snow when we first opened it，but now they are full of spots!
The Fairy：See，Philip，the roses appeared on this page when you shared your toys with the baby；and this pretty bird would never be on here if you were not kind the other day.
Philip：But what makes these spots？
The Fairy：That came when you told a lie one day，and this when you did not listen to Mom.All these spots that look so ugly in your books were made when you were naughty （淘气的）.Each pretty thing in your books came on its page when you were good.
Carl and Philip：Oh，I wish we could have the books again!
The Fairy：That cannot happen.They must now go back into Father Time's bookcase，but I have brought you each a new one.Perhaps you can make these more beautiful than the others.With these words，she disappeared，and the boys were left alone，but each held in his hand a new book open.And on the cover of this book was written in letters of gold， "FOR THE NEW YEAR".

15．（8分）Do you have a lucky number？What is it？Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.
In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.
For example，the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".So，people consider it a very lucky number.Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8 s in their phone number or on their vehicle license plate （车牌照） number.The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8：08 pm on Aug 8，2008.
The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China.There were nine dragons on emperors' robes （龙袍） and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children.The number 9 also stands for "long lasting".That's why a man always proposes （求婚） to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.
So what's an unlucky number in China？One example is 4.Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the character for "death".
Because of this，many buildings skip （跳过） the fourth floor，and simply call it the fifth floor.In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor，as this is considered an unlucky number in the West.As a result，a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.
（1）What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky？
A.The shape of the number.
B.The sound of the number.
C.The history of the number.
D.The spelling of the number.
（2）A building whose highest floor is 60 in Hong Kong might only have physical floors if it skips all the unlucky numbers.
A.35
B.44
C.50
D.60
（3）If we put the passage into three parts，which of the following is best？
（①＝Paragraph 1 ②＝Para.2 ③＝Para.3 ④＝Para.4 ⑤＝Para.5 ⑥＝Para.6）
①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
①②； ③④⑤； ⑥
①②； ③④； ⑤⑥
D. ①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
（4）What is the story mainly about？
A.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Western culture.
B.Meanings of different lucky numbers.
C.Meanings of different unlucky numbers.
D.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.
16．（8分）If you know a place really well，you might say that you know it "like the back of your hand".How well do you know the back of your hand，though？New research shows that we don't know as much about our hands as we think we do.
Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo，at the University of London，tried an experiment.His team of researchers covered the left hands of 100 people.They then asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles （指关节） were.They found this very difficult.
"People think their hand is wider than it actually is，" said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter.
Sense of position
"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are，even when we can't see them. "It tells us whether a joint （关节） is straight or not，" he said.It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator.All this information comes from our nerves （神经）.It's like our brains have maps for the size and shape of our bodies. "This experiment tried to find those maps，" said Longo.
Strength （强度） of feeling
_____"Our brains ‘see' areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly，" said Longo.Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.Our lips （嘴唇），for example，have more nerves than our noses，so our "maps" show lips as being bigger than our noses.
（1）What do we know about Longo's experiment？
A.It examined left﹣handed people.
B.People thought their hands were smaller than they actually were.
C.People could find their knuckles.
D.People thought their fingers were shorter than they actually were.
（2）What does the underlined "it" refer to？
A.The new experiment.
B.The misbelief people had.
C.The size of the hand.
D.The location information.
（3） of the following sentences is put best into the text.
A.People draw the proper maps.
B.These maps make mistakes.
C.Researchers describe the brains.
D.Man touches parts of the bodies.
（4）We can infer from the article that .
A.there are more nerves in the fingers than in the toes
B.our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C.the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D.our brains can see the world better than other mammals

Most people think martial arts （武术） are all about kicking，punching （用拳打） and fighting.But tai chi is the other way around.It is slow，calm （镇静的），and peaceful.
UNESCO recently added tai chi to its Intangible Cultural Heritage List （非物质文化遗产名录）.Although tai chi is an ancient martial art，it is still quite popular today.It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.
People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.Unlike other exercises，it is "soft" ﹣ the muscles are not tensed （紧的），the joints （关节） are not fully bent （弯曲的），and you don't need to stretch （拉伸） too much.This means many can do it.You can practice it almost anytime and anywhere，as no equipment is needed.It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.
But tai chi's advantages go to the physical.MarleniCalcina，a Peruvian （秘鲁的） woman who has practiced tai chi for more than 10 years，says it's not only a sport，but also a way of life.Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi，

15．（8分）Do you have a lucky number？What is it？Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.
In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.
For example，the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".So，people consider it a very lucky number.Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8 s in their phone number or on their vehicle license plate （车牌照） number.The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8：08 pm on Aug 8，2008.
The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China.There were nine dragons on emperors' robes （龙袍） and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children.The number 9 also stands for "long lasting".That's why a man always proposes （求婚） to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.
So what's an unlucky number in China？One example is 4.Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the character for "death".
Because of this，many buildings skip （跳过） the fourth floor，and simply call it the fifth floor.In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor，as this is considered an unlucky number in the West.As a result，a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.
（1）What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky？ B
A.The shape of the number.
B.The sound of the number.
C.The history of the number.
D.The spelling of the number.
（2）A building whose highest floor is 60 in Hong Kong might only have B physical floors if it skips all the unlucky numbers.
A.35
B.44
C.50
D.60
（3）If we put the passage into three parts，which of the following is best？ C
（①＝Paragraph 1 ②＝Para.2 ③＝Para.3 ④＝Para.4 ⑤＝Para.5 ⑥＝Para.6）
①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
①②； ③④⑤； ⑥
①②； ③④； ⑤⑥
D. ①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
（4）What is the story mainly about？ D
A.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Western culture.
B.Meanings of different lucky numbers.
C.Meanings of different unlucky numbers.
D.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.
【解答】（1）B.细节理解题。根据In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知中国文化中的幸运数字是与相似的发音有关。故选：B.
（2）B.推理判断题。根据 In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor.可知60层高要除去4，14，24，34和40﹣49，54以及13层，大概只有44层。故选：B.
（3）C.细节理解题.根据Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck和In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知第一二段总述了文章，所以作为第一部分；根据the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".和The number 9 is also a lucky number可知第三段和第四段主要列举了幸运数字，故可以作为第二部分；根据So what's an unlucky number in China？和Because of this，many buildings skip the fourth floor。可知五段和六段讲述了不幸运的数字，可以作为第三部分。故选：C.
（4）D.主旨大意题。根据In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知本文主要讲述了中国文化中的幸运数字和不幸运的数字。故选：D.
16．（8分）If you know a place really well，you might say that you know it "like the back of your hand".How well do you know the back of your hand，though？New research shows that we don't know as much about our hands as we think we do.
Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo，at the University of London，tried an experiment.His team of researchers covered the left hands of 100 people.They then asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles （指关节） were.They found this very difficult.
"People think their hand is wider than it actually is，" said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter.
Sense of position
"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are，even when we can't see them. "It tells us whether a joint （关节） is straight or not，" he said.It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator.All this information comes from our nerves （神经）.It's like our brains have maps for the size and shape of our bodies. "This experiment tried to find those maps，" said Longo.
Strength （强度） of feeling
_____"Our brains ‘see' areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly，" said Longo.Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.Our lips （嘴唇），for example，have more nerves than our noses，so our "maps" show lips as being bigger than our noses.
（1）What do we know about Longo's experiment？ D
A.It examined left﹣handed people.
B.People thought their hands were smaller than they actually were.
C.People could find their knuckles.
D.People thought their fingers were shorter than they actually were.
（2）What does the underlined "it" refer to？ B
A.The new experiment.
B.The misbelief people had.
C.The size of the hand.
D.The location information.
（3） B of the following sentences is put best into the text.
A.People draw the proper maps.
B.These maps make mistakes.
C.Researchers describe the brains.
D.Man touches parts of the bodies.
（4）We can infer from the article that C .
A.there are more nerves in the fingers than in the toes
B.our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C.the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D.our brains can see the world better than other mammals
【解答】（1）D 细节理解题。根据第三段"‘People think their hand is wider than it actually is，' said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter."（朗戈说："人们认为他们的手比实际要宽。"手指看起来也比较短。"）可知人们认为自己的手比实际宽一些，手指短一些。故选D。
（2）B 词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句中的"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.这 与我们的位置感有关，可推断，这里的it指人们的错误感觉，表示错误感觉与我们的位置感有关。故选B。
（3）B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的"All this information comes from our nerves."（所有这些信息都来自我们的神经。）可知我们的方向感来源于我们的大脑神经。故选B。
（4）C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.身体部位看起来不像它们的真实尺寸，但看起来大或更小取决于它们感觉触摸的强度。可知手要比手指上的神经多，因此会比手指的触感更好。故选C。

C. Would you like to go with me？
D. How about you？
E. What can I do for you？

【解答】（1）D 根据上下文的情景"What are you going to do after school？""I have no idea."和" I'll have an exam next week.I want to ask our teachers for help and then study in the library. "可知A问B放学后打算干什么，而B不知道，B反问A，结果A回答说下周有考试，想向老师寻求帮助，然后在图书馆学习。因此是问你呢？故选：D。
（2）C 根据答语" Sure. I need to return some books to the library."可知是问你想和我一起去吗？ 故选：C。
（3）B 根据答语"Great. We can play table tennis after that."可知上文谈论去图书馆学习的事，接下来谈打乒乓球的事，因此很棒的是B也去图书馆学习英语。所以A说棒极了。 故选：B。

五．任务型阅读。（65-67小题2分，68小题3分，共9分）
18．（9分）阅读下文并回答问题。
Most people think martial arts （武术） are all about kicking，punching （用拳打） and fighting.But tai chi is the other way around.It is slow，calm （镇静的），and peaceful.
UNESCO recently added tai chi to its Intangible Cultural Heritage List （非物质文化遗产名录）.Although tai chi is an ancient martial art，it is still quite popular today.It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.
People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.Unlike other exercises，it is "soft" ﹣ the muscles are not tensed （紧的），the joints （关节） are not fully bent （弯曲的），and you don't need to stretch （拉伸） too much.This means many can do it.You can practice it almost anytime and anywhere，as no equipment is needed.It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.
But tai chi's advantages go to the physical.MarleniCalcina，a Peruvian （秘鲁的） woman who has practiced tai chi for more than 10 years，says it's not only a sport，but also a way of life.Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi， she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
（1）In how many countries do people do tai chi？
More than 150.
（2）Why do people like doing tai chi？
They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.
（3）Do you think it is necessary to add tai chi to Intangible Cultural Heritage List of UNESCO？Please give your reason.
Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.
（4）Write down one or two sentences with less than 35 words in the blank of the last paragraph.
she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
【解答】（1）More than 150.细节理解题。根据 It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.可知它在150多个国家拥有1亿多粉丝。故答案为：More than 150.
（2）They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.细节理解题。根据 People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.可知人们打太极是为了保持健康。故答案为：They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.
（3）Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.个人想法题。题干含义为"你认为有必要将太极列入联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录吗？请说明理由。"我认为有必要，因为这样可以让太极为更多人所熟知，更多人就会打太极以保持身体健康。故答案为：Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.
（4）she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.推理判断题。根据People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.人们打太极是为了保持健康。It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.人们相信，练太极可以帮助我们更好地控制我们的身体，使我们能够站，走，跑得更好。Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.太极让她懂得了慢生活的价值。以及 Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi，生活和工作曾使她压力很大。但她开始感觉到变化，多亏了太极，可知此处应该是说她的身体更健康，能更好的控制自己的身体。而且她的压力也感觉小了很多因为太极让她懂得了慢生活的价值。故答案为：she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.

He also wanted to thank the anonymous donor who gave him a second life and the government for covering the expenses for COVID﹣19 treatment，he said.
【解答】（1）went．考查动词。根据"He（1）_____to Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University in Wuhan"可知此处是指他去了武汉的武汉大学人民医院，主体时态是一般过去时，所以要用went来填空，go to固定短语，去…。故填went．
（2）waiting．考查现在分词。根据"They were（2）_____ for a kidney donor（捐赠者） "可知此处是指他们正在等肾脏捐赠者，前面是were，所以要用现在分词waiting来填空，构成过去进行时。故填waiting．
（3）having．考查动名词。根据"the 39﹣year﹣old began（3）_____ a fever "可知此处是指这个39岁的人开始发烧，前面的词语是began，所以要用having来填空，begin doing sth.固定短语，开始做某事，表示动作正在进行。have a fever固定短语，发烧。故填having．

13．（8分）Sixteen is the age in the United States when teenagers can begin driving. It's a special age. There's often a special celebration for a girl's 16th birthday﹣a big party called her "sweet 16".
About a month before the party， the girl's family sends out invitations to the guests. They must buy a special present for the birthday girl and find good clothes to wear. A "sweet 16" present usually costs 40 to 60. This is about ＄20 more than the usual cost of a birthday present. The party itself is not held at someone's house. The hostess rents a reception hall for the event. Food，cake and a DJ are provided. Around 6 o'clock，guests arrive and say hello to the birthday girl.

A year passed and the Fairy came again to the boys.
The Fairy：I have brought you new books and will take the old ones back to Father Time.
Philip：May I keep my book a little longer？I haven't read it lately.
The Fairy：No，I must take it back.
Carl：I wish that I could look through my book just one more time.I can only read one page at a time，because when I turn the page it sticks and I can never open the book again that day.
The Fairy：Maybe you should check your books.She lit two little candles for them.To their great surprise，on one page there were ugly，black spots （黑点）while the very next page showed a lovely little picture.Even on the most beautiful pages there were ugly spots too.
Carl and Philip：Who did this？Every page was as white as snow when we first opened it，but now they are full of spots!
The Fairy：See，Philip，the roses appeared on this page when you shared your toys with the baby；and this pretty bird would never be on here if you were not kind the other day.
Philip：But what makes these spots？
The Fairy：That came when you told a lie one day，and this when you did not listen to Mom.All these spots that look so ugly in your books were made when you were naughty （淘气的）.Each pretty thing in your books came on its page when you were good.
Carl and Philip：Oh，I wish we could have the books again!
The Fairy：That cannot happen.They must now go back into Father Time's bookcase，but I have brought you each a new one.Perhaps you can make these more beautiful than the others.With these words，she disappeared，and the boys were left alone，but each held in his hand a new book open.And on the cover of this book was written in letters of gold， "FOR THE NEW YEAR".

15．（8分）Do you have a lucky number？What is it？Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.
In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.
For example，the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".So，people consider it a very lucky number.Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8 s in their phone number or on their vehicle license plate （车牌照） number.The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8：08 pm on Aug 8，2008.
The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China.There were nine dragons on emperors' robes （龙袍） and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children.The number 9 also stands for "long lasting".That's why a man always proposes （求婚） to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.
So what's an unlucky number in China？One example is 4.Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the character for "death".
Because of this，many buildings skip （跳过） the fourth floor，and simply call it the fifth floor.In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor，as this is considered an unlucky number in the West.As a result，a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.
（1）What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky？
A.The shape of the number.
B.The sound of the number.
C.The history of the number.
D.The spelling of the number.
（2）A building whose highest floor is 60 in Hong Kong might only have physical floors if it skips all the unlucky numbers.
A.35
B.44
C.50
D.60
（3）If we put the passage into three parts，which of the following is best？
（①＝Paragraph 1 ②＝Para.2 ③＝Para.3 ④＝Para.4 ⑤＝Para.5 ⑥＝Para.6）
①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
①②； ③④⑤； ⑥
①②； ③④； ⑤⑥
D. ①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
（4）What is the story mainly about？
A.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Western culture.
B.Meanings of different lucky numbers.
C.Meanings of different unlucky numbers.
D.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.
16．（8分）If you know a place really well，you might say that you know it "like the back of your hand".How well do you know the back of your hand，though？New research shows that we don't know as much about our hands as we think we do.
Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo，at the University of London，tried an experiment.His team of researchers covered the left hands of 100 people.They then asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles （指关节） were.They found this very difficult.
"People think their hand is wider than it actually is，" said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter.
Sense of position
"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are，even when we can't see them. "It tells us whether a joint （关节） is straight or not，" he said.It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator.All this information comes from our nerves （神经）.It's like our brains have maps for the size and shape of our bodies. "This experiment tried to find those maps，" said Longo.
Strength （强度） of feeling
_____"Our brains ‘see' areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly，" said Longo.Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.Our lips （嘴唇），for example，have more nerves than our noses，so our "maps" show lips as being bigger than our noses.
（1）What do we know about Longo's experiment？
A.It examined left﹣handed people.
B.People thought their hands were smaller than they actually were.
C.People could find their knuckles.
D.People thought their fingers were shorter than they actually were.
（2）What does the underlined "it" refer to？
A.The new experiment.
B.The misbelief people had.
C.The size of the hand.
D.The location information.
（3） of the following sentences is put best into the text.
A.People draw the proper maps.
B.These maps make mistakes.
C.Researchers describe the brains.
D.Man touches parts of the bodies.
（4）We can infer from the article that .
A.there are more nerves in the fingers than in the toes
B.our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C.the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D.our brains can see the world better than other mammals

18．（9分）阅读下文并回答问题。
Most people think martial arts （武术） are all about kicking，punching （用拳打） and fighting.But tai chi is the other way around.It is slow，calm （镇静的），and peaceful.
UNESCO recently added tai chi to its Intangible Cultural Heritage List （非物质文化遗产名录）.Although tai chi is an ancient martial art，it is still quite popular today.It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.
People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.Unlike other exercises，it is "soft" ﹣ the muscles are not tensed （紧的），the joints （关节） are not fully bent （弯曲的），and you don't need to stretch （拉伸） too much.This means many can do it.You can practice it almost anytime and anywhere，as no equipment is needed.It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.
But tai chi's advantages go to the physical.MarleniCalcina，a Peruvian （秘鲁的） woman who has practiced tai chi for more than 10 years，says it's not only a sport，but also a way of life.Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi，

（2）Why do people like doing tai chi？

15．（8分）Do you have a lucky number？What is it？Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.
In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.
For example，the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".So，people consider it a very lucky number.Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8 s in their phone number or on their vehicle license plate （车牌照） number.The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8：08 pm on Aug 8，2008.
The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China.There were nine dragons on emperors' robes （龙袍） and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children.The number 9 also stands for "long lasting".That's why a man always proposes （求婚） to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.
So what's an unlucky number in China？One example is 4.Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the character for "death".
Because of this，many buildings skip （跳过） the fourth floor，and simply call it the fifth floor.In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor，as this is considered an unlucky number in the West.As a result，a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.
（1）What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky？ B
A.The shape of the number.
B.The sound of the number.
C.The history of the number.
D.The spelling of the number.
（2）A building whose highest floor is 60 in Hong Kong might only have B physical floors if it skips all the unlucky numbers.
A.35
B.44
C.50
D.60
（3）If we put the passage into three parts，which of the following is best？ C
（①＝Paragraph 1 ②＝Para.2 ③＝Para.3 ④＝Para.4 ⑤＝Para.5 ⑥＝Para.6）
①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
①②； ③④⑤； ⑥
①②； ③④； ⑤⑥
D. ①； ②③④； ⑤⑥
（4）What is the story mainly about？ D
A.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Western culture.
B.Meanings of different lucky numbers.
C.Meanings of different unlucky numbers.
D.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.
【解答】（1）B.细节理解题。根据In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知中国文化中的幸运数字是与相似的发音有关。故选：B.
（2）B.推理判断题。根据 In Hong Kong，some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4，such as 4，14，24，34 and all 40﹣49 floors.Some buildings also skip the 13th floor.可知60层高要除去4，14，24，34和40﹣49，54以及13层，大概只有44层。故选：B.
（3）C.细节理解题.根据Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck和In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知第一二段总述了文章，所以作为第一部分；根据the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for "making a fortune".和The number 9 is also a lucky number可知第三段和第四段主要列举了幸运数字，故可以作为第二部分；根据So what's an unlucky number in China？和Because of this，many buildings skip the fourth floor。可知五段和六段讲述了不幸运的数字，可以作为第三部分。故选：C.
（4）D.主旨大意题。根据In Chinese culture，some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.可知本文主要讲述了中国文化中的幸运数字和不幸运的数字。故选：D.
16．（8分）If you know a place really well，you might say that you know it "like the back of your hand".How well do you know the back of your hand，though？New research shows that we don't know as much about our hands as we think we do.
Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo，at the University of London，tried an experiment.His team of researchers covered the left hands of 100 people.They then asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles （指关节） were.They found this very difficult.
"People think their hand is wider than it actually is，" said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter.
Sense of position
"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are，even when we can't see them. "It tells us whether a joint （关节） is straight or not，" he said.It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator.All this information comes from our nerves （神经）.It's like our brains have maps for the size and shape of our bodies. "This experiment tried to find those maps，" said Longo.
Strength （强度） of feeling
_____"Our brains ‘see' areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly，" said Longo.Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.Our lips （嘴唇），for example，have more nerves than our noses，so our "maps" show lips as being bigger than our noses.
（1）What do we know about Longo's experiment？ D
A.It examined left﹣handed people.
B.People thought their hands were smaller than they actually were.
C.People could find their knuckles.
D.People thought their fingers were shorter than they actually were.
（2）What does the underlined "it" refer to？ B
A.The new experiment.
B.The misbelief people had.
C.The size of the hand.
D.The location information.
（3） B of the following sentences is put best into the text.
A.People draw the proper maps.
B.These maps make mistakes.
C.Researchers describe the brains.
D.Man touches parts of the bodies.
（4）We can infer from the article that C .
A.there are more nerves in the fingers than in the toes
B.our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C.the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D.our brains can see the world better than other mammals
【解答】（1）D 细节理解题。根据第三段"‘People think their hand is wider than it actually is，' said Longo.Fingers also seem shorter."（朗戈说："人们认为他们的手比实际要宽。"手指看起来也比较短。"）可知人们认为自己的手比实际宽一些，手指短一些。故选D。
（2）B 词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句中的"It is connected to our sense of position，" explained Longo.这 与我们的位置感有关，可推断，这里的it指人们的错误感觉，表示错误感觉与我们的位置感有关。故选B。
（3）B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的"All this information comes from our nerves."（所有这些信息都来自我们的神经。）可知我们的方向感来源于我们的大脑神经。故选B。
（4）C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Body parts don't appear as their true size，but appear bigger or smaller depending on how strongly they feel touch.身体部位看起来不像它们的真实尺寸，但看起来大或更小取决于它们感觉触摸的强度。可知手要比手指上的神经多，因此会比手指的触感更好。故选C。

五．任务型阅读。（65-67小题2分，68小题3分，共9分）
18．（9分）阅读下文并回答问题。
Most people think martial arts （武术） are all about kicking，punching （用拳打） and fighting.But tai chi is the other way around.It is slow，calm （镇静的），and peaceful.
UNESCO recently added tai chi to its Intangible Cultural Heritage List （非物质文化遗产名录）.Although tai chi is an ancient martial art，it is still quite popular today.It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.
People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.Unlike other exercises，it is "soft" ﹣ the muscles are not tensed （紧的），the joints （关节） are not fully bent （弯曲的），and you don't need to stretch （拉伸） too much.This means many can do it.You can practice it almost anytime and anywhere，as no equipment is needed.It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.
But tai chi's advantages go to the physical.MarleniCalcina，a Peruvian （秘鲁的） woman who has practiced tai chi for more than 10 years，says it's not only a sport，but also a way of life.Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi， she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
（1）In how many countries do people do tai chi？
More than 150.
（2）Why do people like doing tai chi？
They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.
（3）Do you think it is necessary to add tai chi to Intangible Cultural Heritage List of UNESCO？Please give your reason.
Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.
（4）Write down one or two sentences with less than 35 words in the blank of the last paragraph.
she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
【解答】（1）More than 150.细节理解题。根据 It has over 100 million fans in more than 150 countries.可知它在150多个国家拥有1亿多粉丝。故答案为：More than 150.
（2）They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.细节理解题。根据 People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.可知人们打太极是为了保持健康。故答案为：They do tai chi as a way to stay fit.
（3）Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.个人想法题。题干含义为"你认为有必要将太极列入联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录吗？请说明理由。"我认为有必要，因为这样可以让太极为更多人所熟知，更多人就会打太极以保持身体健康。故答案为：Yes，I do.Because this can make Taiji known to more people，and more people will play tai chi to keep healthy.
（4）she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.推理判断题。根据People do tai chi as a way to stay fit.人们打太极是为了保持健康。It is believed that practicing tai chi can help us have better control of our bodies so that we can stand，walk，and run better.人们相信，练太极可以帮助我们更好地控制我们的身体，使我们能够站，走，跑得更好。Tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.太极让她懂得了慢生活的价值。以及 Life and work used to stress her out.But she began to feel a change，thanks to tai chi，生活和工作曾使她压力很大。但她开始感觉到变化，多亏了太极，可知此处应该是说她的身体更健康，能更好的控制自己的身体。而且她的压力也感觉小了很多因为太极让她懂得了慢生活的价值。故答案为：she's in better health and better control of her body.And she also felt a lot less pressure，because tai chi has taught her the value of living more slowly.
