【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：——你想要看一些书吗？——哦，太棒了！我想读一些有趣的东西。它可以使等待时间更愉快。
考查不定代词。sme一些，常用于肯定句中，但也用于期望得到肯定回答的疑问句中；any一些，常用于否定句和疑问句中。第一个空位于期望得到肯定回答的疑问句中，用sme；复合不定代词和形容词连用时，形容词要位于复合不定代词后，作后置定语，第二个空填smething interesting。故选A。

考查数词。twelve十二，基数词；nine九，基数词；twelfth第十二，序数词；the ninth第九，序数词。根据“This encyclpedia has … vlumes f bks.”可知，这里描述的是百科全书有十二卷，表示数量，应使用基数词twelve，再由“It’s a pity that I lst…ne last week.”可知，这里指的是上周丢失的特定的一卷，表示顺序，应使用序数词the ninth，并且序数词前通常需要加定冠词the。故选C。

考查形容词最高级和非谓语动词。the mre famus更著名；the mst famus最著名；t visit参观，动词不定式；visiting参观，现在分词/动名词。第一空考查ne f+the+形容词最高级+名词复数，所以填the mst famus；第二空考查be wrth ding sth.“值得做某事”，所以填visiting。故选B。
4. ________ f students have jined us in the prject f prtecting the envirnment. Let’s try t reduce ________ energy and water we use at hme.
A. Thusand; the amunt fB. Thusands; the amunt f

考查数词的表达和名词短语。the amunt f……的数量，后接不可数名词；the number f……的数量，后接可数名词复数。表示模糊数字时，数词用复数且与f连用，所以第一个空用Thusands。第二个空后接的是不可数名词energy，用the amunt f。故选B。

考查形容词辨析和形容词比较级。farther更远的，表示实际空间上的距离；further更进一步的，表示程度上的更进一步；many许多的，形容词原级；mre更多的，形容词比较级。further study“深造”，第一个空用further；根据“May plans t have…study in Britain”可知，此处指想获得更多的信息，用比较级mre。故选D。

【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：——你什么时候在法国阿尔卑斯山学习滑雪？——三年前。到目前为止，我还没有忘记那次特殊的经历。
考查动词时态。根据回答“Three years ag.”可知，问句应该用一般过去时，助动词用did，动词learn用原形。时间状语s far意为“到目前为止”，表示从过去到现在，应用现在完成时，其构成为“have/has+过去分词”，主语是1，助动词用have，否定形式为have nt后接过去分词frgtten。故选A。
7. —Have yu ever ________ Paris?
—Yes. I ________ there in July t see the pening ceremny f the 2024 Paris Olympics.

【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：——你去过巴黎吗？——去过，我在七月去那里观看2024巴黎奥运会开幕式。
考查动词的时态。have been t去过，现在完成时 (去了回来了)；have gne t去了，现在完成时 (去了没回来)；went去过，一般过去时。第一空，根据“Have yu ever … Paris?”可知，此处表达“去过”的意思，所以用have been t，排除A和D选项；第二空，根据“the pening ceremny f the 2024 Paris Olympics.”可知，要用一般过去时，所以填went，排除B选项。故选C。
8. Yu ________ her if she ________ yu t d s.
A had better nt t call; desn’t allwB. had better nt call; wn’t allw
C. had better nt t call; can’t allwD. had better nt call; desn’t allw
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：如果她不允许，你最好不要给她打电话。
考查动词短语和时态。had better nt d sth“最好不要做某事”，第一个空填had better nt call，排除选项A和C；此句为if引导的条件状语从句，时态遵循“主将从现”。第二个空位于从句，时态为一般现在时，空处位于第三人称单数she后，用三单形式的desn’t allw。故选D。
9. Sme f the children are watching a mvie, and ________ are playing with tys. Everyne ________ happy while waiting fr their parents in the rm.

【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：一些孩子在看电影，其他人在玩玩具。在屋里等待父母时，每个人都是开心的。
考查代词辨析和主谓一致。第一个空根据“Sme f the children are watching a mvie, and ... are playing with tys.”，这里表达其他孩子在玩玩具，“thers” 可以表示其他人或物，“the rest” 表示剩余的部分，后面通常要接 “f + 名词”，这里没有 “f + 名词” 这种结构，所以这里用 “thers” 更合适。第二个空根据“Everyne” 是一个不定代词，作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式，所以这里用 “is”。故选A。
10. —Can yu finish the task yurself?
—________
A. Cme n!B. I’m srry.C. I’m afraid nt.D. G ahead!
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：——你能自己完成这个任务吗？——我恐怕不能。
考查情景交际。Cme n!加油；I’m srry.对不起；I’m afraid nt.我恐怕不能；G ahead!去吧。根据“Can yu finish the task yurself?”可知，问句是“你能自己完成这个任务吗?”，答句应是I’m afraid nt. “我恐怕不能”符合句意。故选C。

词句猜测题。根据“‘The grund is t hard,’ he thught. ‘What if my spruts break? What if smething bad happens?’ S, he stayed in the sil, waiting fr the ‘right time’ t grw.”可知，第二颗种子害怕成长，不确定外部环境是否安全。第四段中的“negative attitude”指的是第二颗种子的害怕和不确定的态度。故选C。

细节理解题。文章是按照事情发展的顺序来写的。根据第一段的“a farmer planted tw seeds in the grund. He gave them water and fd every day. He tk gd care f them”，第二段的“while the secnd seed was afraid t pen its buds”，第三段的“the first seed grew and became tall”，第五段的“the grwing plant asked the little ne”以及第六段的“a hen and her chicks wandered and lked fr fd. They fund the waiting seed and they ate it”可知，首先农民种了两颗种子，然后第二颗种子决定不生长，然后第一颗种子长得很高，之后第一颗种子发出疑问，最后第二颗种子被吃了。正确的顺序为b→d→a→e→c。故选A。
