People use languages to communicate (交流). Any language has its ways to express people’s minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms(习语). An idiom is a group of words. It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill. So when people say “I’m under the weather”, they are saying that they’re not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all kinds of weather. So, “There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers” tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot.
Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless problems. On the other hand if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk.
Metaphor (比喻) is often used in idioms. Let’s read the following two examples：
▪ Example 1：It makes my blood(血液) boil (煮沸) when my brother breaks my computer.
▪ Example 2：The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside on a dark night.
In neither situation above, can our blood reach the point so high or so low in temperature. However, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to understand the ▲ feeling in the first example and very afraid in the second.
Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested.
( )34．The passage tells us something about ________in the English language.
A．grammar B．writing C．reading D．idioms
( )35．If your brother tells you he is under the weather, you can advise him to ________.
A．see a doctor B．stay at home C．take an umbrella D．wear fewer clothes
( )36．Which of the following words can be put in “ ▲ ”?
A．sad B．angry C．excited D．proud
( )37．What’s the writer’s suggestion when you come to an idiom that you can’t understand?
A．We should try to express our minds with it.
B．We should find an interesting way to learn it.
C．We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary.
D．We should create situations to guess its meaning.
C
For some students, getting better grades can seem like an impossible task sometimes. With the challenges(挑战) of school, just paying attention in class or studying hard isn’t always enough. But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades? For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy. Research suggests that a person who likes doing activities can improve their grades.
Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies, but also exercising their brains(大脑). In turn, they can be able to improve their grades at school.
In the most recent study, researchers found that when children played for half an hour each day, they were better at organizing(组织) their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally “difficult” subjects, such as maths.
What does this mean for children who aren’t active? Researchers think that if kids don’t get enough activities, they are going to be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance.
In the research experiment, a group of children skipped with ropes(跳绳), played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises. Another group of children didn’t do any activities. They took part in testing both before experiment and after the experiment. Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills. Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity.
All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy, but will also negatively(消极地) affect his grades in school, according to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics.
Parents complain(抱怨) children today are actually less active and they always worry about their grades. Dr. Belton, an expert, said, “If you’d like to see your kids do better in school, have them close their books, set down their pencils and go outside to play.”
( )38．What does the underlined words “rest easy” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Stop worrying. B．Keep working. C．Continue learning. D．Study hard.
( )39．In Paragraph 5, what does the research experiment want to show us?
A．Doing activities is bad for the students.
B．Doing more homework can get better marks.
C．The children in the activity group did better on the tests.
D．Children who didn’t do any activities did better on the tests.
( )40．To help children get better grades, parents should ________.
A．ask the researchers for help B．help them to organize their schoolwork
C．encourage them to do more activities D．let them solve problems by themselves
( )41．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Studying hard. B．Taking part in testing.
C．Doing activities is interesting. D．Being active is helpful for better grades.
D
A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while she held him, she sang：
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.
As long as I’m living, my baby you’ll be.
The little boy grew. He grew until he was nine years old. And he never wanted to come in for dinner, he never wanted to take a bath, and when grandma visited, he always said bad words. Sometimes his mother wanted to sell him to the zoo!
The boy grew. He grew until he was a teenager. He had strange friends and he wore strange clothes and he listened to strange music. Sometimes the mother felt like she was in a zoo!

I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.
But she couldn’t finish because she was too old and sick.
The son went to his mother. He held her in his arms very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And he sang this song：
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.

本文介绍了Tom Blair在妈鼓励下，赢得了诗朗诵比赛的第一名的故事。
16．句意：我们都有一首叫《小吉姆》的诗要学。
letter信；poem诗；passage文章；book书籍。 根据下文“ The teacher called up the boys to repeat the poem”可知，学的是一首诗，故选B。

left左边；snail蜗牛；prize奖励；chocolate巧克力。 根据下文“he gave him the prize”可知，应是给最好的一个奖励，故选C。
18．句意：其他男孩总是嘲笑我，叫我“迟钝的Tom”。
laugh at嘲笑；fight with与……并肩战斗；wait for等待；look after照顾。根据“‘Slow Tom’”可知，应是嘲笑Tom，故选A。

big打的；sweet甜的；sad难过的；kind善良的。 根据“And other boys always ... me and call me ‘Slow Tom’”可知，Tom受到了其他男孩的嘲笑，所以应是难过的说，故选C。

People use languages to communicate (交流). Any language has its ways to express people’s minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms(习语). An idiom is a group of words. It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill. So when people say “I’m under the weather”, they are saying that they’re not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all kinds of weather. So, “There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers” tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot.
Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless problems. On the other hand if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk.
Metaphor (比喻) is often used in idioms. Let’s read the following two examples：
▪ Example 1：It makes my blood(血液) boil (煮沸) when my brother breaks my computer.
▪ Example 2：The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside on a dark night.
In neither situation above, can our blood reach the point so high or so low in temperature. However, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to understand the ▲ feeling in the first example and very afraid in the second.
Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested.
( )34．The passage tells us something about ________in the English language.
A．grammar B．writing C．reading D．idioms
( )35．If your brother tells you he is under the weather, you can advise him to ________.
A．see a doctor B．stay at home C．take an umbrella D．wear fewer clothes
( )36．Which of the following words can be put in “ ▲ ”?
A．sad B．angry C．excited D．proud
( )37．What’s the writer’s suggestion when you come to an idiom that you can’t understand?
A．We should try to express our minds with it.
B．We should find an interesting way to learn it.
C．We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary.
D．We should create situations to guess its meaning.
【正确答案】34．D    35．A    36．B    37．C
本文介绍了在英语中关于习语的一些知识。
34．主旨大意题。根据“One of the ways in common is the use of idioms(习语).”及下文的介绍，可知，本文是告诉我们英语中关于习语的一些知识。故选D。
35．推理判断题。根据“For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill.”可知，under the weather的意思是“生病了”，所以要建议去看医生，故选A。
36．推理判断题。根据前文“It makes my blood boil(煮沸) when my brother breaks my computer.”可知，此处指的应是弟弟把自己的电脑弄坏了，所以会很生气，故选B。

For some students, getting better grades can seem like an impossible task sometimes. With the challenges(挑战) of school, just paying attention in class or studying hard isn’t always enough. But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades? For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy. Research suggests that a person who likes doing activities can improve their grades.
Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies, but also exercising their brains(大脑). In turn, they can be able to improve their grades at school.
In the most recent study, researchers found that when children played for half an hour each day, they were better at organizing(组织) their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally “difficult” subjects, such as maths.
What does this mean for children who aren’t active? Researchers think that if kids don’t get enough activities, they are going to be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance.
In the research experiment, a group of children skipped with ropes(跳绳), played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises. Another group of children didn’t do any activities. They took part in testing both before experiment and after the experiment. Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills. Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity.
All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy, but will also negatively(消极地) affect his grades in school, according to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics.
Parents complain(抱怨) children today are actually less active and they always worry about their grades. Dr. Belton, an expert, said, “If you’d like to see your kids do better in school, have them close their books, set down their pencils and go outside to play.”
( )38．What does the underlined words “rest easy” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Stop worrying. B．Keep working. C．Continue learning. D．Study hard.
( )39．In Paragraph 5, what does the research experiment want to show us?
A．Doing activities is bad for the students.
B．Doing more homework can get better marks.
C．The children in the activity group did better on the tests.
D．Children who didn’t do any activities did better on the tests.
( )40．To help children get better grades, parents should ________.
A．ask the researchers for help B．help them to organize their schoolwork
C．encourage them to do more activities D．let them solve problems by themselves
( )41．What is the best title of the passage?
A．Studying hard. B．Taking part in testing.
C．Doing activities is interesting. D．Being active is helpful for better grades.
【正确答案】38．A    39．C    40．C    41．D
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了最新的一个研究表明，喜欢做运动的人可以提高成绩。
38．词义猜测题。根据“For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy.”可知，对于那些曾经怀疑这是否可行的家长和学生来说，现在你可以高枕无忧了，故“rest easy”指的是“高枕无忧，大放宽心”，故选A。

A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while she held him, she sang：
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.
As long as I’m living, my baby you’ll be.
The little boy grew. He grew until he was nine years old. And he never wanted to come in for dinner, he never wanted to take a bath, and when grandma visited, he always said bad words. Sometimes his mother wanted to sell him to the zoo!
The boy grew. He grew until he was a teenager. He had strange friends and he wore strange clothes and he listened to strange music. Sometimes the mother felt like she was in a zoo!
That teenager grew. He grew until he was a grown-up man. He left home and got a house across town.
Well, that mother, she got older. She got older and older and older. One day she called up her son and said, “You’d better come to see me because I’m very old and sick.”
So her son came to see her. When he came in the door she tried to sing the song：
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.
But she couldn’t finish because she was too old and sick.
The son went to his mother. He held her in his arms very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And he sang this song：
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.
As long as I’m living, my Mommy you’ll be.

【正确答案】42．A    43．A    44．B    45．D
本文主要讲述了一位母亲与儿子的故事，文中有一首表达爱的歌曲，它伴随着男孩的成长，虽然男孩成长过程中比较调皮捣蛋，但是最终母亲收获了爱的回报。
42．细节理解题。根据“A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.”和“The son went to his mother. He held her in his arms very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.”，以及通读全文后可知，这是一个关于一对母子的故事。故选A。
43．推理判断题。根据“The little boy grew. He grew until he was nine years old. And he never wanted to come in for dinner...he always said bad words.”和“The boy grew. He grew until he was a teenager. He had strange friends and he wore strange clothes and he listened to strange music.”可知，这个九岁的男孩不想进来吃晚饭，不想洗澡，奶奶来家里的时候，他又总是说脏话，而当男孩成长为一位青少年时，他结交的是奇怪的朋友，穿奇怪的衣服，以及听奇怪的音乐，结合划线句子“有时候他的妈妈想把他卖到动物园去！”和“有时候这位妈妈感觉自己就像在动物园里！” 可推断出这个男孩在年轻的时候可能惹了许多麻烦。故选A。
44．词义猜测题。根据“I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always.As long as I’m living, my baby you’ll be.”可知，此处的歌词表达的是“我永远爱你，永远喜欢你。只要我活着，你就是我的宝贝。” 划线词组As long as意为“只要”，选项B“如果，要是”与其表达的意义相近。故选B。
45．细节理解题。根据“Sometimes his mother wanted to sell him to the zoo!”可知，有时他的妈妈想把他卖到动物园去，但只是“想”，而并没有真正这么去做，所以选项D“在男孩九岁的时候，他的妈妈把他卖给了动物园。” 表述错误。故选D。
