on land，like Beijing or Shanghai，but on more than 110 islands.Seawater is everywhere around the city.Even so，travel isn't difficult.The waterways have always been the best way to get around.There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go.People in Venice move from place to place by boat.Water makes the city special，but it is also a big problem.Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences.One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge，and there's nothing special.But when they come back to the bridge an hour later，it's underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.Once，people used too much underground water.This made the city get lower little by little.Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters.Another problem is the rising seawater.The temperature has risen over the years.This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean melt.Every year，high water hits the city in autumn and winter.When a lot of water comes，more than half of the city is underwater.Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.The Italian government has asked some of Italy's biggest companies to build the MOST project，which was planned to be built under the seawater to stop the rising water.Anyway，this project is helping solve the problem.【语篇解读】 本文介绍了水城威尼斯的特殊之处——水路交通，用船代步及其遇到的问题和解决措施。4．Which is the best way to travel in Venice?A．The

estimated to be close to one million years old and were believed to be the oldest evidence of humans in northern Europe.Footprints of a group of ancient humans were discovered on a beach in Norfolk，in eastern Britain.They may be about 500，000 years older than the earliest footprints previously found in the country.The 3D images and a model of one of the imprints(印记) were unveiled(透露) at a news conference at the British Museum，in London.The museum's archaeologist Nick M Ashton described the moment when he realised the footprints were left by prehistoric men.“It was only when the overhead views were emailed to me back in my office that I immediately looked at it and opened up the file and I thought，‘This is absolutely amazing.’ You know，there was no doubt that they really were human footprints，” he said.Nick said the new discovery would alter the understanding of early human history in Europe.A researcher of Liverpool John Moores University Isabelle de Groote analysed the prints.“The spread of the footprint size gave us an indication that there were children，a number of children and probably some adults there with at least one，probably one male，” she said.It is not known how the early humans survived in the cold environment of ancient northern Europe.Scientists said a million years ago，Britain was joined to continental Europe and they believed that the individuals who left the footprints were related to Homosapiens' ancestors called the Pioneer Man，known to have inhabited in a warmer climate.【语篇解读】

in Africa.C．No humans lived in Britain about one million years ago.D．The earliest humans came to northern Europe from Africa.B [推理判断题。根据第一段第一句中的“discovered what they believed were the oldest human footprints outside of Africa”可推知，之前在非洲曾发现过最早期人类的脚印。故选B项。]13．The underlined word “alter” in Paragraph 4 probably means “ ”．A．prove B．explainC．change D．developC [词义猜测题。根据该词所在的语境可知，这次在英国东海岸发现的脚印将会改变人们对欧洲早期人类历史的认知，故可推测alter意为“改变”。故选C项。]14．Who left the footprints on the beach according to researcher Isabelle?A．A group of children.B．Some women.C．A group of men.D．Children and adults.D [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The spread of the footprint size gave us an indication that there were children，a number of children and probably some adults there...”可知，伊莎贝尔认为，这些脚印可能是一群孩子和一些成人留下的。故选D项。]15．We can read the passage above most probably in a ．A．science magazineB．student bookC．holiday brochureD．geography bookA [文章出处题。根据文章内容可知，本文最有可能刊登在一本有关人类文明的科学杂志上。故选A项。]Ⅱ.阅读七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Are you planning to take courses at a foreign university？Well，then you have certainly come to the right

[语境说威尔逊总让街坊的大学生免费乘车去上学，因此这里不是说他把自己的车捐献给那些学生，借给学生，或者把车递送给学生，故选D项。volunteer sth.表示“自愿地或无偿地给予或提供某物”。]23．A.paved B．coveredC．measured D．wanderedB [语境表示在过去的八年时间，威尔逊就这样开车行驶了64

all very fond of him.Unfortunately，he always seemed to be treated 41. (different) from everyone else.Reggie didn't like this very much.But the person 42. disliked this most was his friend Michael.Michael decided that things had to change.So he managed to persuade other people in town 43. (choose) one day of the festival for deaf people this year.During that whole day everyone in town would have to wear earplugs(耳塞)．The day 44. (call) The Day of Silence，and when it arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears.As the hours passed，people began to realize 45. difficult life was for the deaf.Soon no one was thinking of Reggie as 46. deaf person.47. (use) his usual gestures，Reggie was the one who could communicate best with everyone.They were surprised at his ability to find solutions 48. almost any problems.They realized all Reggie needed was 49. (much) time than others to communicate.That was the only difference.It was on this day 50. everyone realized they have to give people a chance to show how useful they are.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了Reggie天生失聪，别人对待他的方式与其他人有所不同。他的朋友设法说服镇上的其他人选择今年的一天为今年的聋人节。随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。41．differently [考查词性转换。该空修饰动词treated，用副词，所以填differently。]42．who/that [考查定语从句。“ disliked this most”是一个定语从句，the person是先行词，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，所以填who/that。]43．to choose [考查非谓语动词。persuade sb.to do sth.说服某人做某事，是固定用法，所以填to choose。]44．was called [考查时态和语态。整篇文章都用的是一般过去时，所以这里也用一般过去时，The day与 call之间是被动关系，用被动语态，所以填was called。]45．how [考查宾语从句。句意：随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。“ difficult life was for the deaf.”是一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作状语表示“多么”，所以填how。]46．a [考查冠词。句意：很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。此处为泛指一个耳聋者，deaf的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。]47．Using [考查非谓语动词。use的逻辑主语是Reggie，它们之间是主动关系，用现在分词作状语，所以填Using。]48．to [考查介词。句意：他们对他几乎能解决所有问题的能力感到惊讶。find solutions to...找到……的解决方案，为固定用法，所以填to。]49．more [考查比较级。根据“than others to communicate”可判断出这里在进行比较，用比较级，所以填more。]50．that [考查强调句。把It was和该空去掉，这个句子结构完整，语义清晰，所以这是一个强调句。强调句的基本结构是：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋句子的其他成分，所以填that。]Ⅴ.应用文写作假如你叫李明，你有一位英国网友叫Tom，他听说过中国的故宫，但知道的不多，于是给你发来了email，请你给他介绍一下有关故宫的情况。请你根据下面提供的一些要点给他回一封80词左右的电子邮件。内容要点如下：1．故宫(the Palace Museum)又叫紫禁城(the Forbidden City)。它于1407年开始修建，20万人花了14年的时间，于1420年建成。2．它的宫殿一共有9 999个房间。在中国，9这个数字传统地被认为是吉祥的。3．现在，每周三，故宫免费向中国学生开放。4．故宫里有中国历史上五千年的珍宝(precious treasure)。请他亲自来看一看。 【参考范文】Dear Tom，It is nice to receive your email.Now I'd like to tell you something about the Palace Museum.The Palace Museum is also called the Forbidden City.It took 200，000 workers 14 years to build it.The Forbidden City was finished in 1420.As the largest museum in the world，the Palace Museum holds cultural treasures from the past 5，000 years of Chinese history.Its palaces have 9，999 rooms altogether.Chinese people traditionally think of nine as a lucky number.Students from all over China can now visit it free of charge every Wednesday.I hope you can come to China and have a look at this museum with your own eyes.Best wishes!Yours，Li Ming

117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go.People in Venice move from place to place by boat.Water makes the city special，but it is also a big problem.Sometimes

estimated to be close to one million years old and were believed to be the oldest evidence of humans in northern Europe.Footprints of a group of ancient humans were discovered on a beach in Norfolk，in eastern Britain.They may be about 500，000 years older than the earliest footprints previously found in the country.The 3D images and a model of one of the imprints(印记) were unveiled(透露) at a news conference at the British Museum，in London.The museum's archaeologist Nick M Ashton described the moment when he realised the footprints were left by prehistoric men.“It was only when the overhead views were emailed to me back in my office that I immediately looked at it and opened up the file and I thought，‘This is absolutely amazing.’ You know，there was no doubt that they really were human footprints，” he said.Nick said the new discovery would alter the understanding of early human history in Europe.A researcher of Liverpool John Moores University Isabelle de Groote analysed the prints.“The spread of the footprint size gave us an indication that there were children，a number of children and probably some adults there with at least one，probably one male，” she said.It is not known how the early humans survived in the cold environment of ancient northern Europe.Scientists said a million years ago，Britain was joined to continental Europe and they believed that the individuals who left the footprints were related to Homosapiens' ancestors called the Pioneer Man，known to have inhabited in a warmer climate.【语篇解读】

all very fond of him.Unfortunately，he always seemed to be treated 41. (different) from everyone else.Reggie didn't like this very much.But the person 42. disliked this most was his friend Michael.Michael decided that things had to change.So he managed to persuade other people in town 43. (choose) one day of the festival for deaf people this year.During that whole day everyone in town would have to wear earplugs(耳塞)．The day 44. (call) The Day of Silence，and when it arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears.As the hours passed，people began to realize 45. difficult life was for the deaf.Soon no one was thinking of Reggie as 46. deaf person.47. (use) his usual gestures，Reggie was the one who could communicate best with everyone.They were surprised at his ability to find solutions 48. almost any problems.They realized all Reggie needed was 49. (much) time than others to communicate.That was the only difference.It was on this day 50. everyone realized they have to give people a chance to show how useful they are.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了Reggie天生失聪，别人对待他的方式与其他人有所不同。他的朋友设法说服镇上的其他人选择今年的一天为今年的聋人节。随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。41．differently [考查词性转换。该空修饰动词treated，用副词，所以填differently。]42．who/that [考查定语从句。“ disliked this most”是一个定语从句，the person是先行词，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，所以填who/that。]43．to choose [考查非谓语动词。persuade sb.to do sth.说服某人做某事，是固定用法，所以填to choose。]44．was called [考查时态和语态。整篇文章都用的是一般过去时，所以这里也用一般过去时，The day与 call之间是被动关系，用被动语态，所以填was called。]45．how [考查宾语从句。句意：随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。“ difficult life was for the deaf.”是一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作状语表示“多么”，所以填how。]46．a [考查冠词。句意：很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。此处为泛指一个耳聋者，deaf的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。]47．Using [考查非谓语动词。use的逻辑主语是Reggie，它们之间是主动关系，用现在分词作状语，所以填Using。]48．to [考查介词。句意：他们对他几乎能解决所有问题的能力感到惊讶。find solutions to...找到……的解决方案，为固定用法，所以填to。]49．more [考查比较级。根据“than others to communicate”可判断出这里在进行比较，用比较级，所以填more。]50．that [考查强调句。把It was和该空去掉，这个句子结构完整，语义清晰，所以这是一个强调句。强调句的基本结构是：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋句子的其他成分，所以填that。]Ⅴ.应用文写作假如你叫李明，你有一位英国网友叫Tom，他听说过中国的故宫，但知道的不多，于是给你发来了email，请你给他介绍一下有关故宫的情况。请你根据下面提供的一些要点给他回一封80词左右的电子邮件。内容要点如下：1．故宫(the Palace Museum)又叫紫禁城(the Forbidden City)。它于1407年开始修建，20万人花了14年的时间，于1420年建成。2．它的宫殿一共有9 999个房间。在中国，9这个数字传统地被认为是吉祥的。3．现在，每周三，故宫免费向中国学生开放。4．故宫里有中国历史上五千年的珍宝(precious treasure)。请他亲自来看一看。 【参考范文】Dear Tom，It is nice to receive your email.Now I'd like to tell you something about the Palace Museum.The Palace Museum is also called the Forbidden City.It took 200，000 workers 14 years to build it.The Forbidden City was finished in 1420.As the largest museum in the world，the Palace Museum holds cultural treasures from the past 5，000 years of Chinese history.Its palaces have 9，999 rooms altogether.Chinese people traditionally think of nine as a lucky number.Students from all over China can now visit it free of charge every Wednesday.I hope you can come to China and have a look at this museum with your own eyes.Best wishes!Yours，Li Ming
