3. The government has built some natural parks__________ protect pandas.
A. to help B. help C. helped D. helps
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：政府建了一些自然公园来保护熊猫。
考查不定式结构。根据“The government has built some natural parks...”与“protect pandas”之间的关系可知，此处应用动词不定式结构作状语，表示目的。故选A。

A. was invented B. invented C. is invented D. was invent
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：风筝是2000多年前在中国发明的。
考查一般过去时的被动语态。主语The kite与谓语invent之间是动宾关系，因此用被动语态be done，且由“more than 2000 years ago”可知，时态是一般过去时，主语是单数，故be用was，invent的过去分词为invented。故选A。

A. so that B. in order that C. in order to D. so to
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：为了赶上末班车，他们匆忙离开了。
考查短语辨析。so that以便，后接从句；in order that为了、以便，后接从句；in order to为了、以便，后接动词原形；so to无此用法。根据空后“catch the last bus”可知是动词短语，排除选项A和B；根据“They hurried to leave…catch the last bus.”可知他们匆忙离开是为了赶上末班车，所以用in order to表目的。故选C。
8. I want to know __________ tomorrow.
A. where will meet B. where to meet C. where meet D. where meeting
【答案】B
【解析】

【16题详解】
句意：在美国密歇根州格兰维尔市，Miya Peyregne和她6岁的妹妹Tiffany正在自家后花园的游泳池里游泳。
six-years-old错误表达，有连字符不能加s；six-year-old六岁的（作定语）；six year old错误表达，year是可数名词，要加s；six years old六岁（作表语）。“数字-year-old”是形容词，意为“几岁的”，作定语修饰名词，而“数字+years+old”是形容词短语，多用作表语；分析句子，空后“sister”是名词，故选B。
【17题详解】
句意：天空中没有一片云。
cloud云（名词单数）；clouds云（名词复数）；cloudy多云的（形容词）；clouded乌云密布的（形容词）。根据空前冠词“a”，可知此处需填可数名词单数，故选A。
【18题详解】
句意：他很痛苦。
pains使痛苦（动词三单）；pain痛苦（名词）；painful痛苦的（形容词）；pained使痛苦（过去式）。介词短语“in pain”意为“很痛苦”，故选B。
【19题详解】
句意：20秒后，他还在水里。
early早期的/提早（形容词/副词）；earlily拼写错误，early既是形容词也是副词，不存在earlily这种拼写；late迟的（形容词）；later以后（副词）。根据下文“he was still under the water”可知他依旧在水里，所以此处是表达“20秒以后”，故选D。
【20题详解】
句意：没有时间再等了。
waiting等待（动名词）；waited等待（过去式）；to wait等待（不定式）；waits等待（动词三单）。分析句子，此处是不定式作后置定语修饰“time”，“there is no time to do”意为“没有时间做某事”，故选C。
21题详解】
句意：尽管他很重，但在水的帮助下，她还是把他拉到了泳池的一边。
If如果；Because因为；Although尽管；Unless除非。分析句子，前后是让步关系，可知此处是although引导的让步状语从句，其余选项逻辑不通，故选C。
【22题详解】
句意：他家里有一部手机。
his他的（物主代词）；he他（人称代词主格）；him他（人称代词宾格）；himself他自己（反身代词）。根据空后的名词“house”，可知此空需填形容词性物主代词，故选A。
【23题详解】
句意：一辆救护车很快就来了。
/ 零冠词；The这个（定冠词）；A一个（不定冠词）；An一个（不定冠词）。根据句中的“ambulance”是可数名词单数形式，这里不是特指，可知用不定冠词；又因为“ambulance”是元音音素开头的单词，不定冠词用an，故选D。
【24题详解】
句意：大卫仍然不知道那天他的腿怎么了。
of……的；with和；for为了；at在（某时刻）。固定句型“what’s the matter with”意为“……怎么了”，介词用with，故选B。
【25题详解】
句意：但他知道他的女儿们是英雄，每天都感谢她们救了他的命。
save拯救（动词原形）；saved拯救（过去式）；saving拯救（动名词）；saves拯救（动词三单）。根据空前的介词“for”，可知此处需填动名词，故选C。

（A）
In Ireland, scientists studied a group of 42 cats. They gave them three tasks. One was to give them some delicious food out of a plate. They found that the male cats preferred to use their left paw, and the female cats preferred to use their right paw.
Being left-handed or right-handed can also include eyes, ears, claws and even tails. In Italy, scientists discovered that dogs wag their tails to the right when they see something that they like. When they see something that they don’t like, their tails go to the left.
There are lots of fun examples. Left-handed dolphins swim in a different direction around the pool. Elephants like to swing their trunks(象鼻) in one direction. Even snakes prefer to curl up(蜷缩起来) only one way.
Many people believe that polar bears are left-handed. They say that polar bears cover their black nose with their right paw, which helps them hide in the snow when they are hunting. Then they can sneak up(慢慢靠近) on an animal, and their left paw will be free to catch it.
Scientists, however, disagree. Some have watched polar bears for thousands of hours. They never saw the bears cover their nose during a hunt. They also saw no evidence(证据) that they were left-handed. Without taking any notice of this, many websites continue to say that polar bears are left-handed.
Scientists are still learning about animals and their body languages. If you see an animal the next time, try finding out yourself which it prefers—left or right.
36. The study in Ireland shows that ________ cats like to use their right paws.
A. male B. female C. both male and female D. neither male nor female
37. When the dogs see something they like, their tails go ________.
A. to the right B. to the left C. up D. down
38. Writers use some examples in paragraph 3 in order to show that ________.
A. the male animals are left-handed
B. all animals are left-handed
C. being left-handed or right-handed can also include eyes, ears, claws and even tails
D. when animals see something that they don't like, their tails go to the left
39 ________ kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage.
A. Four B. Five C. Six D. Seven
40. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Being left handed or right-handed is only limited(受限于) to the arms or legs.
B. Snakes like curling up in different ways.
C. The scientists agreed that polar bears are left-handed.
D. Many scientists keep on learning about animals and their body languages.
【答案】36. B 37. A 38. C 39. C 40. D

A few years ago in August, there were many people in the countryside near London. Some people were there at 4:30 in the morning. They were there to help James May to build a house. But it was not a common house. It was a Lego house. 1,200 people used 3.3 million Lego toy bricks to make a real house.
It was a part of a TV show called Toy Stories. In this programme, James used traditional toys to make “real” things. Why Lego? Well, because when James was young, he loved Lego and played with it all the time.
The people finished building the house on September 17th, almost seven weeks after they started. Everything was Lego. All the ways, doors and windows were Lego. There was a Lego bedroom and a Lego bed. There was a Lego bathroom with a Lego toilet and a shower. And they all worked! In the kitchen there was a Lego fridge（ but not cookers）and there were Lego tables and chairs. There was even a Lego cat.
James stayed in the house one night and was surprised because the bed was quite comfortable.
At first, a theme（主题）park called Legoland planned to buy the house, but later they decided not to. James tried to find another buyer. He started a Facebook page and asked other people to buy it, but nobody wanted it. So on September 22nd, they started to take the house to pieces. A few days later, there wasn’t a Lego house any more.
James was not happy about it because more than 1,000 people worked hard to build the house and everything inside it. Other people were not so sad. The TV company donated（捐献）the three million Lego pieces to a charity（慈善机构）for children.

A lecture on “24 solar systems of Chinese lunar year” will be held by Mr. Gao at 3 o’clock next Wednesday afternoon in the school hall. Students must take their notebooks to attend the lecture. Here is some information about one of the 24.
Introduction
Grain Rain is the sixth of the 24 solar systems. It is usually on April 19th or 20th every year. Grain Rain comes from the old saying. “Rain brings up the growth of hundreds of grains.”
Climate（气候）
●Rainy and Wet

【答案】56. (c)ommunication
57. (m)essages
58. (h)olds
59. (s)top 60. (m)eanings
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了不同工作的人如何依靠手势交流。
【56题详解】
句意：然而，一些工作中的人们依靠手势进行交流。根据“people in some jobs depend on gestures”可知，是指依靠手势进行交流，介词for后跟名词，communication“交流”，不可数名词。故填(c)ommunication。
【57题详解】

【58题详解】
句意：例如，为了告诉火车“出发”，铁路工人把旗子举过头顶并上下移动。根据“a railway worker h... the flag above his head and moves it up and down.”可知，铁路工人将旗帜举过头并上下移动，hold“举”，由“moves”可知，时态为一般现在时，主语是单数，谓语动词也用单数。故填(h)olds。
【59题详解】

根据所给的汉语内容, 用英语完成下列句子, 每空只写一词。
61. 他昨天摔伤了腿，现在走路都有困难。
He hurt his leg yesterday and now he _________ _________ _________.
【答案】 ①. has ②. difficulty ③. walking
【解析】
【详解】根据汉语提示可知，该句考查短语“做某事有困难”have/has difficulty doing，结合“now he...”可知，时态为一般现在时，主语he为三单，因此用三单形式has。“走路”walk，此处用动名词walking。故填has；difficulty；walking。
62. 在课堂上，你最好坐直并认真听讲。
You had better ________ ________ and listen carefully in class.
【答案】 ①. sit ②. straight
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空处缺“坐直”的英文翻译。短语had better do sth意为“最好做某事”，空处应填动词原形；sit straight意为“坐直”。故填sit；straight。
63. 上次期末考后，老师鼓励我们振奋起来继续加油！
The teacher encouraged us to _________ _________ _________ and work hard after the last final exam.
【答案】 ①. raise ②. our ③. spirits
【解析】
【详解】raise one’s spirits“使振奋起来，打起精神”，固定短语，encourage sb to do sth“鼓励某人做某事”，空处用动词原形；our“我们的”。故填raise；our；spirits。
64. 这汤应该煮 2 小时以上。
The soup _________ _________ _________ for more than 2 hours.
【答案】 ①. should
②. be ③. cooked
【解析】
【详解】通过中英文对比可知，此处考查情态动词should的被动语态：should+be+过去分词。cook“煮”，动词。故填should；be；cooked。
65. 我们必须每天练习说英语。
We must ________ ________ English every day.
【答案】 ①. practice ②. speaking
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照，空处缺“练习”和“说”的英文翻译。短语practice doing sth.“练习做某事”，speak English“说英语”，practice位于情态动词“must”后，用原形。故填practice；speaking。
66. 如果我们不停止砍伐，也许以后就再也没有树木了。
There may be ________ ________ trees in the future if we don’t stop cutting
【答案】 ①. no ②. more
