Ⅶ.阅读理解
A
主题语境:人与社会　语篇类型:说明文
Most funny stories are based on comic situations.In spite of national differences,certain funny situations have a universal attraction.No matter where you live,you would find it difficult not to laugh at,say,Charlie Chaplin’s early films.However,a new type of humour,which starts largely from the US,has recently come into fashion.It is called “sick humour”.
Comedians base their jokes on tragic situations like violent deaths or serious accidents.The following “sick humour” will enable you to amuse yourself.
A man who had broken his right leg was taken to hospital a few weeks before Christmas.From the moment he arrived there,he kept on bothering his doctor to tell him when he would be able to go home.He was afraid of having to spend Christmas in hospital.Though the doctor did his best,the patient’s recovery was slow.On Christmas Day,the man still had his right leg in plaster(石膏).
He spent a miserable day in bed thinking of all the fun he was missing.The following day,however,the doctor consoled him by telling him that his chances of being able to leave hospital in time for New Year celebrations were good.The man took heart and,sure enough,on New Year’s Eve he was able to hobble(蹒跚) along to a party.To make up for his unpleasant experiences in hospital,the man drank a little more than what was good for him.In the process,he enjoyed himself thoroughly and kept telling everybody how much he hated hospitals.He was still murmuring something about hospitals at the end of the party when he slipped on a piece of ice and broke his left leg.

B
主题语境:人与社会　语篇类型:说明文
I was born and raised in England in a culture where privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valued traditions.Speaking to strangers was not encouraged.People were most hospitable(好客的) and friendly—but only once they had been introduced to new people.
However,I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US,where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different.
I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelling,one afternoon,from Genoa to Florence.Sinking gratefully into an empty seat,I was berated(斥责) in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat—it had not been “spare” after all.I apologised in English,and got up to allow him back into the seat.The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language,but he,too,realised my genuine mistake.He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat,and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey.
The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome among them.I feel that if this had been in England,a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.
Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American cultures.I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers.We sat together in near silence.Nobody spoke to me nor,as I expected,to anyone else they did not know.They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone else’s privacy.However,when I travelled across the United States,whether by plane or Greyhound bus,I was never short of conversation.Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself.They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person,whether they were strangers or not.
5.What do we know about the occupants of the carriage when the author was travelling in Italy?
A.They all laughed at the author for his mistake.
B.They were all on the side of the gentleman.
C.They would not bear a mistake like the author’s in public.
D.They all showed their understanding of the author’s mistake.
6.The author finally believes the Italian people are 　　　. 
A.cold B.rude
C.hospitable D.helpful
7.According to the last paragraph,English passengers sat in near silence because 　　　. 
A.they were all strangers to each other
B.they were too tired to speak
C.privacy was a valued tradition in England
D.everybody had their own share of privacy
8.The purpose of the author is to tell us 　　　. 
A.his travelling experience
B.cultural differences to show hospitality and politeness
C.the culture shock he experienced in Italy and the US
D.how to adapt ourselves to a new culture
C
主题语境:人与社会　语篇类型:夹叙夹议文
My best friend travelled to stay with my family last weekend.When she arrived,she went straight to the kitchen and,without asking,ate some dried fruit.She wasn’t being rude.I knew she would do this.We’ve known each other for almost 20 years.She can eat anything she wants from my kitchen.Indeed,I bought her favourite fruits and snacks at the shop that morning.
Our long weekend together was simple.I was recovering from surgery and couldn’t go to shopping malls.But there were no quiet moments.We’ve lived in different cities for almost a decade.Reunions demand conversation.
Our personalities are matched,to be sure,and a shared history is indescribably (难以形容地) valuable.We were competitors at high school before bonding.Then we discovered the many interests that we had in common.Our friendship developed itself quickly.We stayed companions and supported each other through law school and through our first jobs.Our friendship is a friendship for the ages.
There is something special about friends who know everything about you.They are rare.They have seen your achievements,your desperation and your boring routine of the in-between.It’s special to unpack feelings without wasting time filling in the blanks.As my long weekend shows,with such friends we don’t have to do well,but we simply have to be ourselves.We drop the act,the performance and the public version of ourselves.The special friendships are those which never fail to delight us,whose continuation is worth the extra effort,despite distance and difference in our separate lives.I had the very great joy of this reminder last weekend.I’m lucky to have found this friend,and to see a future where her companionship remains.Being together is perfection.
9.What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A.They talked constantly about their lives.
B.They enjoyed going shopping.
C.They had a boring weekend.
D.They quarrelled at times.
10.What does the author appreciate about their friendship?
A.They help each other achieve success in their fields.
B.They’re best friends despite different hobbies.
C.They inspire each other to be their best selves.
D.They’re comfortable just being themselves.
11.What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?
A.Real friends are easy to make.
B.Good friendships need devotion.
C.Special friendships may fail to delight us.
D.Distance and difference bring a friendship.
12.Why does the author write this text?

Ⅹ.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。
It was Susan’s 12th birthday.She had been expecting to receive a yo-yo (悠悠球) from her parents as her birthday gift for several months.However,she received a purple dress instead,which made her really disappointed.
“I only want a yo-yo as my birthday gift.I don’t want the dress and I hate purple,” Susan shouted at her mother when she saw the dress.“Even a five-year-old child has a yo-yo.Do you know why others don’t want to be my friends?It is all because I don’t have a yo-yo.It is so boring to live in this house,” Susan said angrily.
Her mother ignored her complaints and changed the topic,saying,“Uncle Brown,Uncle Smith,Aunt Aniston and their children are coming for dinner tonight.So,you can play with your cousins.”“But,I don’t think there is anything interesting to play in the house,” Susan complained again.
The guests arrived at 6:00 pm.Susan guided the four children who came with the adults to her room.“Do you have any interesting toys,Susan?” asked Jim,one of the children.Susan felt that Jim was asking for a yo-yo.She felt embarrassed and brought out her Snakes and Ladders (蛇梯棋).All the children played the game together.Everyone enjoyed playing the game except Susan.After a little while,her cousin Sara asked,“Susan,can we go downstairs to the basement?” Susan said,“No,there is nothing interesting to play in it.”Ignoring Susan’s words,the children raced to the basement excitedly.They found there were some empty cartons,ropes,old broken toys...Upon seeing this,Sara came up with an idea—the memory game.She arranged a few things on the floor and closed her eyes.Then Jim took away an object randomly and Sara should guess what the missing object was.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
When Susan arrived there later,she looked at the children in surprise.

That night after the guests left,Susan sat alone in her room.

Ⅶ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新型幽默。尽管民族不同,有些滑稽的情节却能产生普遍的吸引力。然而,最近一种新型幽默流行起来——喜剧演员根据暴死或重大事故等悲剧情节来编造笑话。
1.D　细节理解题。从第一段第二、三句可知,对于有些著名喜剧演员的表演来说,几乎所有的人都看得懂,并且大笑起来,故D项正确。
2.A　词义猜测题。从最后一段前三句可知,医生是安慰他,告诉他有机会能够离开医院。console含有comfort(安慰)的意思。
3.B　推理判断题。从文章最后一段的描述可知,那个人因出院了很高兴,在聚会上多喝了一些,结果又摔断了左腿。因此,选B项。
4.A　主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了最近新兴的一种幽默形式。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。作者通过自己的旅行经历说明了不同文化中人们对于“好客”和“礼貌”的表达方式不一样。
5.D　细节理解题。根据文中的“but he,too,realised my genuine mistake.He smiled...The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome among them”可知,车厢里其他的人都对作者点头微笑,说明他们理解作者的错误。
6.C　推理判断题。根据第三段第一句的“I experienced Italian hospitality”以及本段内容可推知,意大利人热情友好。
7.C　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“We sat together in near silence.Nobody spoke to me nor,as I expected,to anyone else they did not know.They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone else’s privacy”可知,英国乘客几乎都不和陌生人说话,因为他们国家的传统认为干涉别人的隐私是不礼貌的。
8.B　推理判断题。文章通过不同的情景对比告诉我们,不同文化中人们对“好客”和“礼貌”的表达方式不一样。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者与朋友很多年没有见面了,因此见面以后有说不完的话。本文作者主要分享了自己珍视的这段友谊及其对友谊的理解。
9.A　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But there were no quiet moments.We’ve lived in different cities for almost a decade.Reunions demand conversation.”可知,作者与朋友很多年没有见面了,因此见面以后有说不完的话,据此可以推断,她们可能会一直聊过去这些年的生活经历,故选A项。
10.D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“As my long weekend shows,with such friends we don’t have to do well,but we simply have to be ourselves.We drop the act,the performance and the public version of ourselves.”可知,作者认为和真正的好朋友在一起时,我们只需做自己就行了,由此可推知D项正确。
11.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“whose continuation is worth the extra effort,despite distance and difference in our separate lives”可以推断,良好的友谊需要人们付出额外的努力,故选B项。
12.B　推理判断题。本文主要讲述了作者与其最好的朋友之间的友谊及其对于友谊的理解,所以作者写这篇文章主要是为了分享自己珍视的一段友谊,故B项正确。
Ⅷ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。辛辛那提地区的Jordynn和她最好的朋友Skylar创办了一个组织,专门为孩子们提供节日礼物,为受疫情影响的儿童和家庭创造了一个比以往任何时候都更快乐的圣诞节。
1.merrier　考查形容词比较级。根据后文“than ever”可知,此处应用比较级,所以填merrier。
2.was inspired　考查动词时态和语态。根据下文的“as they grew up”可知,此处应用一般过去时。主语与谓语动词构成被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
3.an　考查冠词。organization为可数名词,此处表泛指,由于organization是以元音音素开头的单词,所以填an。
4.Growing　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,grow在句中是非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语Jordynn and Skylar构成逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用动词-ing形式作状语。
5.to make　考查非谓语动词。表示“某人做某事的欲望”时要用“one’s desire to do sth.”,此处用不定式作后置定语,故填to make。
6.broke　考查动词时态。所填的词是since引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词,从句描述的是过去发生的动作,所以用一般过去时。
7.as　考查介词。根据句意可知,此处表示“作为”,所以用介词as。
8.donation(s)　考查名词。句意:他们请求他们的社区捐款。空处作宾语,表示“捐赠,捐款”,故应用名词donation,此处可用单数也可用复数形式。
9.beautifully　考查副词。所填的词修饰动词wrap,所以用副词形式,故填beautifully。
10.which　考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句,修饰上文整个句子,从句中缺少主语,故应用关系代词which引导,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。
Ⅸ.Dear Tom, 
How are you recently?Knowing that you are interested in the School Open Day,I am more than delighted to introduce it to you. 
In order to promote the communication between our school and the families,our school organised a series of activities on the School Open Day.Visitors are shown around the campus and listened to the classes carefully.Besides,the participants appreciated students’ class-break exercise.Finally,the participants put forward some suggestions to improve our school’s management and education quality.
The School Open Day provided an amazing occasion for the society to better understand our school,making the families and our school cooperate to push us students’ overall development.
Yours sincerely, 
Li Hua 
Ⅹ.　　When Susan arrived there later,she looked at the children in surprise.They were playing happily with what Susan considered boring.Seeing this,Susan understood that although there was no yo-yo,they could also enjoy themselves.Jim asked her to join them playing together instantly he saw Susan.It was at that moment that Susan realised she had focused too much on what she didn’t have but ignored what she had.
That night after the guests left,Susan sat alone in her room.On her bed was the purple dress given to her as a birthday gift.She thought to herself,“It seems that the dress doesn’t look that bad.Actually,I like all the clothes Mum bought for me.” She was sorry for having shouted at her mother.So she ran to Mum’s room and said,“Sorry,Mum.I should be satisfied with what I own.” Hearing the words,her mother hugged her in arms tightly,happy and touched by Susan’s change.
