Ⅰ.阅读理解
Mandara seemed t knw smething big was abut t happen.S she let ut a yell，caught hld f her 2－year－ld daughter Kibibi and climbed up int a tree.She lives at the Natinal Z in Washingtn DC．
And n Tuesday，August 23rd，witnesses said she seemed t sense the big earthquake that shk much f the East Cast befre any humans knew what was ging n.And she’s nt the nly ne.In the mments befre the quake，an rangutan (猩猩) let ut a lud call and then climbed t the tp f her shelter.
“It’s very different frm their nrmal call，” said Brandie Smith，the zkeeper.“The lemurs (mnkey like animals f Madagascar) will sund an alarm if they see r hear smething highly unusual.”
But yu can’t see r hear an earthquake 15 minutes befre it happens，can yu? Maybe yu can—if yu’re an animal.
“Animals can hear abve and belw ur range f hearing，” said Brandie Smith.“That’s part f their special abilities.They’re mre sensitive t the envirnment，which is hw they survive.”
Primates weren’t the nly animals that seemed t sense the quake befre it happened.One f the elephants made a warning sund and a huge lizard (蜥蜴) ran quickly fr cver.The flaminges (a kind f birds) gathered befre the quake and stayed tgether until the shaking stpped.
S what kind f vibratins (震动) were the animals picking up in the mments befre the quake? Scientist Susan Hugh said earthquakes prduce tw types f waves—a weak “P” wave and then a much strnger “S” wave.The “P” stands fr “primary”．And the “S” stands fr “secndary”．She thinks the “P” wave might be what sets the animals ff.
Nt all the animals behaved unusually befre the quake.Fr example，Smith said the z’s giant pandas didn’t jump up until the shaking actually began.But many f the ther animals seemed t knw smething was cming befre it happened.“I’m nt surprised at all，” Smith said.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要讲了在地震前动物们的表现，有些动物对地震敏感，而有些动物对地震没有察觉。
1．Why did Mandara act strangely ne day？__A__
A．Because it sensed smething unusual wuld happen.
B．Because its daughter Kibibi was injured.
C．Because it heard an rangutan let ut a lud call.
D．Because an earthquake had happened.
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Mandara seemed t knw smething big was abut t happen.”可知，Mandara表现得很奇怪因为它感觉有一些不同寻常的事情要发生。选A。

3．Which animal seems unable t sense quake？__A__

C．A lemur.D．A lizard.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的第一、二句“Nt all the animals behaved unusually befre the quake.Fr example，Smith said the z’s giant pandas didn’t jump up until the shaking actually began.”可知在地震之前，大熊猫并没有表现异常，由此推断出大熊猫不能感知地震。选A。

Ⅱ.语法填空
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Last Octber，while tending her garden in Mra，Sweden，Lena Pahlssn pulled ut a handful f small __1.carrts__(carrt) and was abut t thrw them away.But smething made her lk clser，and she nticed a __2.shiny/shining__(shine) bject.Yes，there beneath the leafy tp f ne tiny carrt was her lng－lst wedding ring.
Pahlssn screamed __3.s__ ludly that her daughter came running frm the huse.“She thught I had hurt __4.myself__(I)，”says Pahlssn.
Sixteen years __5.earlier__(early)，Pahlssn had remved the diamnd ring __6.t ck__(ck) a meal.When she wanted t put the ring back n later，it was gne.She suspected that ne f her three daughters—then ten，eight，and six—had picked it up，but the girls said they hadn’t.Pahlssn and her husband __7.searched__(search) the kitchen，checking every crner，but turned up nthing.“I gave up hpe f finding my ring again，”she says.She never replaced it.
Pahlssn and her husband nw think the ring prbably gt __8.swept__(sweep) int a pile f kitchen rubbish and was spread ver the garden，__9.where__ it remained until the carrt’s leafy tp accidentally spruted (生长) thrugh it.Fr Pahlssn，its return was __10.a__ wnder.
文章大意：本文讲述了主人公Pahlssn在一个胡萝卜的茂密的叶子下面，找到了她遗失很久的结婚戒指。16年前Pahlssn在厨房做饭时取下戒指，之后戒指就找不到了。而16年后花园中胡萝卜的意外发芽使戒指又被找回。他们现在认为戒指可能和一堆厨房垃圾被扫到花园中了。戒指的失而复得对他们来说是个奇迹。
解析：
1．考查名词复数。句意：Lena Pahlssn拔出一把小胡萝卜正要扔掉。a handful f意为“一把，几个”，后加可数名词复数形式。故填carrts。
2．考查形容词。句意：她注意到一个闪亮的物体。由语法知识可知，形容词修饰名词bject。故填shiny/shining。
3．考查固定结构。句意：Pahlssn大声地喊叫以至于她女儿从房子里跑出来。意为“如此……以至于……”。故填s。
4．考查反身代词。句意：她认为我伤到了我自己。由语境可知，女儿听到母亲的叫声后跑出门，以为母亲伤到了她自己。myself是反身代词，指“我自己”。故填myself。
5．考查固定用法。由语境可知，这个戒指是十六年前丢的。数词＋years earlier表示“……年前”。故填earlier。
6．考查非谓语动词。句意：Pahlssn把钻石戒指摘掉去做饭。这里用不定式表目的。故填t ck。
7．考查时态。句意：Pahlssn和她的丈夫在厨房寻找。由语境可知，这段是她回忆戒指丢失时的场景，故谓语动词需要用过去时。故填searched。
8．考查语态。句意：Pahlssn和她的丈夫现在认为戒指可能和一堆厨房垃圾被扫到花园中了。由语境可知，戒指是被扫到花园中，故空白处填被动形式。故填swept。
9．考查定语从句。句意：Pahlssn和她的丈夫现在认为戒指可能和一堆厨房垃圾被扫到花园中了，在那里直到胡萝卜意外地发芽使戒指通过绿叶又被找到。前后两句很完整，由句意可知，后半句是对花园进行了进一步的解释说明。故后半句是定语从句，先行词是garden，关系副词where在从句中作地点状语。故填where。
10．考查冠词。句意：它的回来(指戒指失而复得)是一件很奇妙的事。wnder在这句话中的词性是名词，可数名词单数前需要加冠词。故填a。
Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A friend f mine whse name was Jhn Smith had a bad memry，which made him famus.He was s frgetful that he smetimes frgt what he was talking abut in the middle f a sentence.His wife had t cnstantly remind him abut his meetings，his classes—even his meals！Once he frgt he had eaten breakfast twice，at hme and at schl.His wife liked t remind her neighbrs，“If Jhn didn’t have his head tied n，he wuld frget that t！” Since Smith was a prfessr at a well－knwn university，his frgetfulness was ften an embarrassment t him.It wasn’t that he was nt clever，as sme critical peple tended t say，but just very very absent－minded.
One ht summer day，Prfessr Smith decided t take his children t a seaside twn abut a three－hur train ride away.T make the trip mre interesting fr his yung children，he kept the name f the twn a secret.Hwever，by the time they arrived at the statin，Smith frgt the name f the twn he was planning t visit.Luckily，a friend f his happened t be in the statin.He ffered t take care f the children while Smith hurried back hme t find ut where he was ging.
The prfessr’s wife was surprised t see him again s sn.
“Oh，my dear，I frgt the name f the twn.”
“What? Yu frgt the name? Maybe ne day yu will frget my name！Nw I’ll write the name f that twn n a piece f paper，and yu put it in yur pcket and please，please dn’t frget where yu put it.”
Satisfied that she had slved the prblem，she sent her husband ff again.Ten minutes later she was astnished t see him utside the huse fr the third time.
Paragraph 1：
“What is the matter nw？”asked his wife.___________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
Hearing the cry，ut rushed their neighbrs，trying t find ut what had happened. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
参考范文：
Paragraph 1：
“What is the matter nw？” asked his wife.“I just can’t remember why I cme back and where I am suppsed t be ging n such a ht summer day，”replied the prfessr.Hwever，the real reasn was that he frgt where he had left his children.Sensing smething wrng，Mrs. Smith didn’t believe his wrds，because whenever he tld a lie，he wuld blink his eyes usually quickly.“Tell me the truth，” rdered his wife.“As yu tld me，I didn’t frget where I put the name f that twn，but I frget the statin where I left ur children！” whispered the prfessr，his vice trembling.“What a bad memry！” shuted the wife.
Paragraph 2：
Hearing the cry，ut rushed their neighbrs，trying t find ut what had happened.A fight between the cuple was abut t start when the prfessr’s cell phne began t ring.His friend，whse patience had wrn thin，phned t cmplain.The prfessr aplgized，gt int his car and drve away，leaving behind a bunch f peple utside the huse.Being afraid that he wuld make matters wrse again，Mrs. Smith decided t fllw him，wh then called a taxi.By the time she caught up with her husband，the children were already back hme safe and sund.
