Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
I find it humorous sometimes that
even the most ordinary incidents can
have an
effect on our awareness.
My wife Denise,
daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago
and
we spent a lot of time and energy in the
yard to get it looking as it does today. We
live around a corner, higher than street
level, and the entire side of the yard is
surrounded by a professionally built rock
wall. The front of the house is another
story
because instead of a wall along the sidewalk the
rocks appear to be just
thrown up onto the
dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.
We did the best we could with what we had to work
with and called this
area our “rock garden”.
Whenever we had planted flowers or plants, Denise
or I
would stick it out for all to see them,
just to bring some color to the area.
Last
summer I reached the end of the rock garden and
found a little tiny
plant that I could not
immediately identify. I knew I didn't plant it and
Denise claimed
that she didn't either. We
decided to let it continue growing until we could
figure out
what it was.
Weeks passed
and as I made my way back to the mysterious
plant,it
appeared to be a sunflower. It was
small and long. I decided to baby it along and cut
weeds around it. As I pulled rocks from the
area to get to the weeds,I noticed
something
unusual. The sunflower had not started where I saw
the stalk (茎) begin.
It actually had begun
under a big rock and grown under and around it to
reach the
sun!
That's when I realized
that a little tiny sunflower didn't let a big rock
stand
in its way of developing. Stand tall
like the sunflower, and you will find a way to
overcome your big difficulties in order to
reach your desires.
16. What's the best title
for the passage?
A. Cut Weeds with My Family
at Weekends
B. How My Family Spent a Happy
Time at Home?
C. Stand Tall Like the Sunflower
D. A Special Plant We Found
17. Which of
the following statements is TRUE according to the
second
paragraph?
A. The author's family
members have lived in our home for more than a
decade.
B. The author spent less time and
energy than his wife and daughter in the
yard.
C. The house the author's family live in is
much lower than street level.
4

D. The rock wall
surrounding the yard is built well.
18. What
can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. The
couple bought many plants and flowers.
B. The
couple was hardworking and careful.
C. The
couple had no jobs and wanted to sell the flowers.
D. The couple made their garden the most
beautiful in the area.
19. How did the writer
feel when knowing the truth that the sunflower
grew
under a big rock?
A. Happy.
B. Excited.
C. Depressed.
D. Astonished.
20. What can we learn from the
passage?
A. We should be careful with plants.
B. Stones can't hold back our footsteps.
C. There are many difficulties in life,but we
still should be brave to overcome
them.
D. We'd better take good care of sunflowers
wherever we are.
答案与解析:

述一株生长在岩石下的向日葵,为了沐浴阳
光,不屈不挠,克服困难,达到目标的故事,告诉我们一旦树
立目标,无论遇到多么大的
困难,都要坚定地去追求。

,作者发现一株生长在岩石下的向日葵,由此感叹:
即使身处逆境,也要像这株向日葵一样,不屈不挠,
克服困难,实现目标。
17.D 细节理解题。根据第二段可知,作者一家是九年前搬入这个家的;一

了很多时间和精力来管理院子;作者的家高于街道;院子的围墙是内行人精心修建的,修
得很好。因此只有D项符合文意,其他选项均不正确。

项符合题意。

难。

学而思网校
三个阅读俱乐部,这些俱乐部可以满足各个年龄段的孩子的需要,也都具有各自的风格和
特点。
21.C 事实细节题。参加暑假的阅读活动可以为新学期作好准备,C项正确。A项是
“得到
一个好的期末成绩”,这跟阅读活动没有关系;B项是“提前完成作业”,阅读俱乐部
主要组织阅读活动
,不帮助完成作业;D项也与文意没有直接的联系。
22.B 是非判断题。根据“All Star
Readers”的两段内容可知B项正确,该部分说明
了并不是所有的3—18岁的孩子都可以成为“
All Star Readers”,只有6—12岁的孩子才
有资格。根据文章第一段内容可知A项
错误。根据“Sparkey Spots the Ball”的内容可知
只有听了20本书后孩子才
可以得到两种奖品:一个棒球和一张冰激凌券,故C项也不对。
根据“X?Treme
Read”的内容可知,孩子们是读,而不是听,所以D项也与文章内容不相符。
23.A 标题归纳
题。本文主要说的是Wisconsin的公共图书馆提供了各种各样的暑
假阅读俱乐部并开展了一些阅
读活动,以丰富孩子的学习生活。文章的目的当然不是介绍
俱乐部的数量或种类,不是强调孩子们所受到
的照顾,也不是说孩子们在阅读俱乐部很快
乐。故答案为A项。
Ⅲ.书面表达
假设
你是李华,今年初次到英国,欲寻找一个住宿的地方。你在报纸上看到下面的广
告,颇感兴趣,但是对此
广告,你尚有许多不明之处,你将这些疑问都标在广告上了。你
将用英语给房东写一封信,简要介绍你的
情况并就你的疑问提出询问。
注意:1.词数120左右;
2.广告上的要点均要提及,可适当增加细节,以使文章连贯。
3.信的开头和结尾已写出,不必重复。
