The old man showed Su Shi some words in the book and said, “I am reading a book, but there are so many words in it I don’t know. I saw your couplet, so I was hoping you could teach me how to read them.” Su Shi looked at the words but didn’t know any of them. His face turned red with shame. Su Shi looked at the name of the book and was disappointed. He never heard of this book before. In fact, the old man read the book many times. He knew every word in it. He just wanted to let Su Shi know the importance of being humble (谦逊的). Su Shi realized why the old man came, and then he said, “I shouldn’t be so proud of myself.” The old man smiled and left.

So engineers try to build green bridges for animals over busy roads. These bridges help keep animals and people safe. The idea of green bridges isn’t really new. In fact, the first animal crossing appeared in France in the 1950s. Germany has made more than 80 green bridges since 2005. Canada and the United States are also trying to protect wildlife in their countries by building animal bridges over the years. Although there are different designs (设计), most green bridges share something similar. First, they are usually quite wide, giving animals plenty of room to move. Second, they are usually covered with earth and plants to look like the forests that lie on either side of the roads. Lastly, they are wider at the ends, spreading out (延展) where they meet the land. This helps assemble animals onto the bridge and guide them out when they leave. People may wonder ▲ , In Canada’s Banff National Park, 11 kinds of large animals such as bears and cougars (美洲狮) have already gone across these green bridges more than 200,000 times since 1996. In some places where these bridges have been built, we’ve also seen a 90% drop in accidents between animals and cars. These crossings are clearly a step in the right way to offer living chances and safety to wild animals. And with these bridges, both animal and human deaths on roads will continue going down. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 42．Which picture can show the design of most green bridges according to the text? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined word “assemble” mean in the text? A．Watch animals in the wild. B．Keep animals in a safe place. C．Train animals for animal shows. D．Bring animals together as a group. 44．Which can be the best to fill in the “________” in Paragraph 4? A．if these green bridges really work B．if Canada has built the best green bridges C．if it is easy to walk across green bridges D．if there will be new designs for green bridges 45．Why is the text written? A．To tell people a new idea for busy traffic. B．To encourage people to get close to nature. C．To introduce a creative way to protect wildlife. D．To teach people some helpful ways to save plants. 五、单词拼写。(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 46．Getting enough sleep every night can make our bodies stronger against d________ (疾病). 47．Lily was a________ (缺席) from the meeting because she missed the bus. 48．After many years of trying, I finally a________ (实现) my dream. 49．This app provides free s________ (服务) to help us find lost pets in the neighborhood. 50．He s ________ (遭受) from a bad cold last week and had to stay at home. 六、词汇运用（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 用方框中所给词的适当形式填空。 51．Some patients have trouble walking and the hospital provides free for them. 52．This English storybook helps me improve my reading skills. 53．We expect the beautiful cherry blossoms in the park next month. 54．With our team’s hard work, the school party went last night. 55．The teacher asked us to draw a blue sky as the of our painting. 七、短文填空。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 根据短文内容和括号里所给单词，在下文空格处填入所给词的适当形式使短文完整。 Are you looking for a good volunteer activity? Get outdoors and go gleaning!     What is gleaning? Well, let’s begin 56 the problem of food waste on farms. Some farm produce is of good quality 57 looks not that good. Farmers don’t usually try to sell this kind of produce. Much of it is left in the fields. That 58 (mean) a great waste. And gleaning is about reducing this waste-by 59 (collect) the leftover produce. These days, many volunteer groups go out gleaning in order to provide those in need with fresh, 60 (health) food. Holly’s group is among them. Her volunteers collect about 300 boxes of food each week. Once, 61 local fruit farmer called Holly to ask for gleaning services. The farmer had a large field with more than 700 fruit trees. A member of Holly’s group 62 (create) a digital map of the trees. With the help of the map, the volunteers 63 (easy) collected the leftover fruit from the trees. Besides this, Holly’s volunteers have also picked 64 (potato), cabbages and many other vegetables from farms. The food has been sent to food banks and community kitchens in her area. Gleaning helps solve the problems of farm waste and food shortages (短缺). And gleaners also find it is meaningful 65 (do) the work. “We can get outside and do something good for the world,” said Holly. “I feel happy whenever I go gleaning!” 八、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答下列问题。 Red Nose Day is a famous charity event that helps children in poor areas. It was started in 1988 by a British group called Comic Relief. The event usually happens in March in odd-numbered years (奇数年). So far, it has raised over £60 million to help kids around the world. In the UK, people celebrate Red Nose Day every two years. They wear red clothes and funny red noses, which you can buy at supermarkets. Part of the money from selling red noses goes to charity. People also host “Red Nose Parties” at home. They will sell tickets to their friends. Friends come dressed in red, and those who forget must pay a small fine. The ticket money and fines are all donated to help children in need. Red Nose Day has inspired (激发) other fun charity events worldwide. For example, Sweden has “Paws for a Cause”. In this event, pet owners run with their dogs to collect money for homeless animals. In the US, there’s “Ugly Christmas Sweater Day” every December. Americans wear funny, crazy Christmas sweaters. They hold parties to collect money to help kids in need. These activities show that doing something small and fun can lead to big changes. Comic Relief uses the money to provide food, education, and healthcare for children. They also share reports to show how the money is spent, so people know their donations are helping. Nowadays, Red Nose Day even goes online. People can buy virtual red noses and share funny photos on social media to keep the tradition alive. Red Nose Day teaches us that kindness can be fun. By wearing a red nose or an ugly sweater, everyone can join hands to create a better world. 66．When does Red Nose Day usually take place? 67．What will happen if people don’t wear red to the “Red Nose Parties”? 68．What is the purpose of “Ugly Christmas Sweater Day” in the US? 69．Where can people share funny photos? 70．As students, what else can we do to help people in need? 九、书面表达。(共10分) 71．为了鼓励学生多参加社会实践活动，上周日下午你校开展了“走进社区志愿服务”活动。30多名志愿者在阳光社区 (Sunshine Community) 进行了服务，你也参加了此次活动。本周你校英文报要对这一活动进行报道，请你写一篇英语短文投稿。 写作要点： 1.
