阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。Good afternoon and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws. The first one is about drinking. Now, you may not buy alcohol (酒) in this country if you are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you. Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don't make unnecessary noise, particularly at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet. Thirdly, crossing the road. Be careful! The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this country. Use pedestrian crossings (人行横道) and do not take any chances when crossing the road. My next point is about litter (throwing away waste material in a public place). It is an offence (违法行为) to drop litter in the street. When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home, or put it in a litter bin. Finally, as regards something, it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco (烟草) if you are under 16 years of age. I'd like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help or assistance, you should contact your local police station, who will be pleased to help you. Now are there any questions?

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。Several different stories are told about the origin of Saint Valentine's Day. One legend (传奇) dates as far back as the days of the Roman Empire. According to the story, Claudius, the Emperor of Rome, wanted to increase the size of his army. He knew that it would be easier to get young men who were not married to join. Therefore he made a rule that no young man could marry until he had served a certain number of years in the army. A priest (牧师) named Valentine broke the rule and secretly married a great many young people. Finally, Claudius found out about Valentine and put the priest in prison, where he remained until his death on February 14. After his death, Valentine was made a saint (圣人), and the day of his death was named Saint Valentine's Day. It became the custom for lovers to send each other message on this day. Now Saint Valentine's Day is a time for people to send one another greeting of many kinds. February 14, Valentine's Day, is a sweethearts' day, on which people in love with each other express their tender (温柔的) emotions. People sometimes put their love message in a heart-shaped box of chocolates, or a bunch of flowers tied with red ribbons (带子). Words of letters may be written on the flower covered card, or something else. Whatever the form may be, the message is almost the same: "Will you be my Valentine?"

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。One Saturday last November, I stepped into my local library. I was about to read a book when I heard an elderly man speak to a lady. "This library will soon become a café. Everyone is reading with electronic devices," he said. Hearing this, I wanted to shout, "I still read library books!" But my words stuck in my throat and I found teenagers around me were talking to friends or staring at their phones. Reading online feels robotic to me. It's like I stare at a screen and click "next" for the following page to appear until the very end of the e-book, and at the end of all of that, I just think, "That's it?" But when I read a printed book, it's like I'm holding on to the characters. I can imagine the plot better, as I can picture the scenes of each moment in my head with more accuracy and imagination. Besides, some online books miss components (组成部分) that are in the printed novels. For instance, the physical copy of a fantasy novel I have read contains a map, but the e-book version does not. That is an injustice to e-book users; after reading and understanding the map, the story made a lot more sense for me, in terms of the setting and plot. And personally, physically turning to the next page is better than clicking "next". When reading online, I sometimes worry that I click "next" too quickly. It feels more like a race; I want to finish it because the pages just keep making that "flipping" sound and I wonder how long the book really is. Some printed books have a special smell that makes the novel feel special to me. It's hard to describe but I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks so. I know I cannot convince every teen to switch from the digital book to the printed one, but maybe my writing about the difference will at least get some of them to think about it.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。For a bird, to fly hundreds or thousands of miles each spring and fall is a difficult and dangerous journey, one that not all birds can survive. There is more than one single reason for different birds to migrate(迁徙), but it all comes down to survival. Birds are migrating for a meal. For all birds, one of the main driving forces behind migration is food. If all birds were to stay in the same places year-round, food there would become not enough. But as the food supplies decrease in the fall, they return to the southern areas. . Over millions of years, birds have developed different migration patterns, times and destinations. This helps birds take advantage of a wide variety of suitable conditions to raise their young, which increases the survival chances of the young birds. Birds are migrating because of climate changes. Changes in climate can affect migration. Many birds leave the Arctic for example, when temperatures begin to fall. They need warmer habitats. Similarly, the hottest regions can be an unpleasant environment for raising young birds. . Birds are migrating because of predators. Habitats that have rich food sources also attract a greater number of predators who may kill birds. Many birds even migrate to specialized habitats that are nearly inaccessible to predators, such as coastal cliffs or rocky offshore islands. A. So why do birds migrate? B. Birds are migrating for their young. C. So how do young birds migrate? D. Birds are migrating because of diseases. E. It is beneficial to lay eggs further north in cooler areas. F. Birds that migrate to different habitats can avoid being eaten by predators. G. As food sources are rich in the north each spring, millions of birds migrate from south to those areas. |

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 father asked me to chat with him for a while. Actually, I was unwilling to listen to his talking endlessly as he always did. My father was a lawyer, but I never wanted to go to law school or follow his path through life. As was expected, he cleared his throat and started to say, "Er... What... What do you really want to do in the gorgeous(灿烂的) future?" I was silent for a moment playing with the cell phone. I kept thinking "Should I tell him my true thoughts? What if he gets angry? What if I let him down?" later I replied, "Well, I want to be a writer." I guessed this may be not the answer he would expect. But surprisingly, "Interesting idea!" he answered. I was shocked, speaking in a low voice with hesitation. "Are you serious, dad?" "Well, you need confidence and good preparations, and you still have plenty of time. You need to find out what you really enjoy now. Look, it's late. Let's take the boat out tomorrow morning, just you and me. Maybe we can catch some crabs (螃蟹) for dinner, and we can talk more." Early next morning we packed up the equipment and set off for the coast. We didn't talk much, but enjoyed the sound of the seabirds and the sight of the coastline. There were no big waves and blinding sunlight at that time. "Let's see if we are lucky" he said, picked up a web basket with a rope tied and threw it into the sea. We waited a while, then my father stood up and said, "Give me a hand with this," and we pulled up the crab cage onto the deck. To our joy, the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs. Squatting (蹲) down, we watched them for a moment. At first they fought against each other to climb out hard, trying to escape. Many were pulled back into the cage. Later, some gave up, but there were still some crabs trying to escape again and again. 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。 At that moment, my father pointed to the cage, "Look at that crab, there!" From that day on, I was determined to make my dream come true |
