10、 第二节 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。
My knees started shaking, yet my body froze; it felt as though my soul departed (离开) my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the name list posted on the wall of the locker room; my heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends' names on that list but could not find mine. John, Bryce, Ro, I thought, everybody is on here except me. At that moment, I froze; I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team but I was not.
I was so convinced there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. "Hey coach, are you sure that the name list you posted is correct?" I asked anxiously.
"Yes. Sorry if you did not make it this year. There is always next year," the coach replied without the slightest bit of regret.
I could feel the hot, bitter tears building in my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. As soon as I walked out, I saw my friends crowding into the locker room to look at the team list. I heard them shouting and laughing as I slowly walked away, every one of them jumping around with excitement after seeing that they made the team.
I felt dead inside,like nothing mattered. I trudged (步履艰难) through the rest of school; walking was such a burden that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day; everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other.
After school, as I walked to the parking lot to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot,celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being one of the only people in our friend group to not make the team.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右。(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I saw my father's red car pull up near the school lot.
After almost a year of training, I tried out for my seventh-grade team.

12、 阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。将答案 填写在答题纸的相应位置。
Bees are disappearing. But does it (real) matter if bees disappear? Are they so important to our environment? The short answer is, yes, it does matter and yes, they are important. Bees fly around from flower to flower, (look) for pollen (花粉). They use these to produce honey, is food for their colonies. But at the same time, the bees help to move pollen from one flower to another. This process (call) pollination (授粉). Pollination means that the flowers can create seeds and new flowers. bees, many flowers can't make seeds or fruit. In fact, bees are responsible for the pollination of one (three) of all the plants which we eat. A single hive (蜂箱) with 50,000 honeybees can pollinate 500,000 plants in one day! Imagine world with no apples, carrots, onions, strawberries or, of course, honey. That's a world with no bees.
So, are the bees disappearing? Scientists think that there are several possible reasons, including climate change, disease and pesticides.
But it's not all bad news. Primary schools, businesses, universities and community centres are now setting up their own hives. They enjoy the delicious honey and at the same time they know that they (help) to look after some of the most important (insect) on the planet.

14、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项
In English, the object on your face that smells things is called "nose", and you can describe it as "big". The popular belief among language scientists had been that sounds used to form those words were arbitrary. But new work led by Damian Blasi, a professor from the University of Zurich, suggests that may not be true — and that the same sounds may be used in words for the same concepts across many different languages.
The research team focused on words for 100 basic concepts in 85% of the world's living languages, including the names of body parts, such as "bone" and "ear", and natural phenomena, like "leaf" and "star". Verbs, including "bite", the pronouns "I", "you" and "we", and descriptive words such as "red", were also studied.
The researchers understood that some words would be similar because they have a common history. Others, including "sugar", "tea" and "coffee", have similar-sounding names in different languages because they are traded goods. The people exchanging them were thus exposed to each other and strongly motivated to make themselves understood. But even when keeping these in mind, the team found a lot more consistency across languages than they had expected. For example, the words for "nose" often involve either an "n" sound or an "oo" sound in almost any language. Employing an "s" sound in the words for "sand" is similarly common. There must be some deeper reasons.
The research team made several assumptions. One is that some objects have names whose sounds bring them to mind, a sort of "sound symbolism". Employing an "n" sound to name a nose would be one example. Another is that sensory associations play a role. Studies have found that people routinely associate darker colors with lower sounds and lighter colors with higher ones. But there might be a clearer possibility — expediency. "Huh" is a word that has been found to be remarkably similar across languages. "It's cheap, short and understandable," says Dr Blasi — convenient for something you might say hundreds of times a day.
(1)、What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A、The research purpose. B、The research subject. C、The research result. D、The research problem.(2)、What does "these" refer to in Paragraph 3?A、The similar-sounding names. B、The traded goods. C、The recognized factors. D、The deep reasons.(3)、What does the underlined word "expediency" mean in the last paragraph?A、Annoyance. B、Convenience. C、Accuracy. D、Fluency.(4)、Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A、Why words have different sounds B、How sounds change in language C、Are sounds arbitrary in language D、Do words have sound symbolism -
15、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项
People only contact their insurers when things go wrong and they need to make a claim. This generally means losses for the insurer. It also means stress and troubles for the customer. In order to relieve both problems, insurers increasingly offer extra services alongside their traditional policies.
Aviva, a British insurer, for instance, installs sensors on customers' water pipes to detect very small leaks, so that these can be repaired before causing greater damage. This spares Aviva the cost of a bigger claim, and the customer the misfortune of a flooded basement.
Life insurers have so far been slower to catch on. But this is changing. Often extra services help people to live more healthily. AXA, a French insurer, gives its customers access to check-ups. Union Life, a Chinese one, guarantees customers a place in an old people's home and advises them on activities in retirement.
Last month, Haven Life, an American life-insurance agency, announced it would include a set of extra services for its customers. That makes it a pioneer on its home market as its new policy fits neatly into the global trend. Its extra services centre on health. For instance, customers also get discounts on family-health services at some clinics, and access to a genetic health test. Now more and more American life insurers have joined it. Ladder, a life-insurance startup, offers some help on financial planning through an online tool. State Farm, a large American insurer, gives customers a discount on in-home sensors that monitor old people's health.
These services are not in short of demand. A survey by Bain & Company finds that American consumers have very similar preferences to other parts of the world on the sorts of services they want from life insurers. But America is not a friendly place for innovative insurers. New policies must be approved by each of its 50 state authorities. Some states' laws are too inflexible, and do not allow for such extra benefits. Even when an offering suits insurers and their customers, it can still take time to spread.
(1)、Why do more and more insurers provide customers with extra services?A、To help with the repair work. B、To earn a greater reputation. C、To prevent greater losses. D、To make customers relaxed.(2)、Why does the writer mention "AXA" and "Union Life" in Paragraph 3?A、To draw people's attention to keeping healthy. B、To urge life insurers to provide more services. C、To explain why life insurers develop slowly. D、To show the changes in life insurers' services.(3)、What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about concerning American life insurance?A、The new trend on its market. B、The new leader of its industry. C、The quality of its new services. D、The future of its new policy.(4)、What is preventing life insurers' new policies from spreading in America?A、Consumers' preferences. B、Customers' demands. C、Some states' rigid laws. D、Extra services' quality. -
16、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项
Phil Wise's heart raced as he opened one of the transport tubes. He and a team of scientists stepped back as a young Tasmanian devil(袋獾) named Oddity came out. Oddity took a cautious look around and then ran into the forest on Maria Island.
Wise is a wildlife biologist from the Save the Tasmanian Devil Program. The scientists working with this program study Tasmanian devils, monitor their health, and track the devils found in the wild. Because a rare disease is reducing the number of devils, Oddity and 14 others were raised on a preserve and then brought to Maria Island to be released into the wild.
Though they are raised in zoos all over the world, devils live wild only in Tasmania. They are important to the ecosystem because they eat dead animals they find, which helps clean up the environment. But a cancer called Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD) is killing devils on mainland Tasmania, endangering the species. The goal of the scientists who released Oddity and the others was to create a population of disease-free Tasmanian devils on Maria Island. Oddity is a part of this "insurance population" of devils raised in zoos and wildlife preserves.
The scientists chose Maria Island for the release because there is no DFTD there. It is separated from mainland Tasmania by the ocean. Devils from the rest of Tasmania can't get there, which prevents the facial disease from spreading.
Wise and his fellow scientists monitored Oddity and the 14 other Tasmanian devils. The animals did so well that 13 more devils were released. The 28 original Tasmanian devils have reproduced; there are now around 80 devils. Scientists are now figuring out their next move. According to Wise, the focus will soon shift to moving some of the healthy devils back to mainland Tasmania.
Wise says he is "extremely happy to know that animals are getting a chance to be free in the wild in an area that is free of DFTD. It is the ultimate aim of all who work to conserve threatened species."
(1)、Why did Wise and his team release the Tasmanian devils like Oddity?A、To prevent DFTD killing them out. B、To find out a treatment for DFTD. C、To control the DFTD spread in zoos. D、To protect Maria Island from DFTD.(2)、What probably made Maria Island chosen for the release?A、Its wildlife diversity. B、Its geographic location. C、Its natural resources. D、Its improved ecosystem.(3)、How was the released Tasmanian devils' life?A、Their safety was uncertain. B、Their number was going up. C、They hardly enjoyed freedom. D、They recovered from DFTD.(4)、What does the text mainly talk about?A、A program studying Tasmanian devils. B、A disease threatening Tasmanian devils. C、A measure to save Tasmanian devils. D、A habitat of wild Tasmanian devils. -

20、 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个答案中,选出最佳选项,并标在试卷的相应位置。
If you have to describe yourself to someone else, what will you say? It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside, but knowing who you are, namely self-awareness, can help you understand feelings and make friendships closer.
Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own character, that is, having the ability to see ourselves clearly. If you're self-aware, you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it, and music makes you happy, or that you prefer watching TV on your own because it helps you relax.
Knowing what you like and dislike, what you do well in and what you find difficult allows you to make better decisions about friendships, schoolwork and so on. You learn to trust your own feelings more, which builds confidence (信心). The World Health Organization says self-awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live happier, healthier lives. Being self-aware doesn't mean only thinking of yourself. By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too.
How do you learn to be self-aware? It's a good way to ask questions. But ask yourself questions that start with "What" instead of "Why". So if you don't understand why you keep arguing with a friend, ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you're arguing.
Learning to be more self-aware is a skill, which means you learn it as you grow. So be bold and try out new things, like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music. Don't be afraid to dislike something - discovering what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself.
(1)、The second paragraph mainly about ____.A、what self-awareness is B、what true happiness is C、how to find true happiness D、how to develop self-awareness(2)、Knowing yourself is important because ____.A、it'll make you think more of yourself B、it'll make you perform better at school C、it'll help you learn how to ask proper questions D、it'll help you have a better understanding of others(3)、What does the underlined word "bold" in the last paragraph probably mean in Chinese?A、努力的 B、自豪的 C、大胆的 D、耐心的(4)、What's one of the keys to becoming more self-aware?A、Being in high spirits. B、Discovering your weak points. C、Having a taste for pleasant music. D、Learning to get along well with others.
