I sat with my friend in a well-knowncoffee shop. As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat down beside us. Hecalled the waiter and ordered, “Two[if !vml]
[endif]cups of coffee,15 of them there on the wall.” We heard
this with great 16 and saw that he was
served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he left, the
waiter 17 put a piece of paper on the
wall, saying “A Cup of Coffee”. While we were still there, two other men had
two cups of coffee but paid for three. 18 , the
waiter did the same thing. It seemed that this was usual at this place.
However, it was something strange for us. Since we had nothing to do with the 19 , we finished our coffee, paid and left.
After a few days, we again had a 20 to go to this coffee shop. While we were enjoying our
coffee, a man entered. The way this man was dressed did not match the 21 of this coffee shop. As he seated himself, he looked
at the wall and said, “One cup of coffee from the wall.” The waiter served
coffee to this man with the same 22 . The man
had his coffee and left without paying. The waiter took off a piece of paper
from the [if !vml]

【语篇解读】作者在一家咖啡店发现经常有人多付一杯咖啡的钱,并将这杯咖啡记账挂在墙上。后来才得知,原来这些咖啡都是为有需要的人准备的。
【答案及解析】
15.C 句意:要两杯咖啡。其中一杯放在墙上。后文说到他只喝了一杯咖啡,另一杯则被服务员写在纸上然后挂在了墙上。由此可知,此处为“one of them”,意为“其中一杯”C项正确。
16.B 句意:我们听到这儿都感到很好奇,然后看到服务员给他端上了一杯咖啡,但他付了两杯的钱。作者听到“把咖啡挂到墙上”应该是好奇的。joy欢乐。interest兴趣。effort努力。fear害怕。B项符合上下文意思。
17.A 句意:他一离开,服务员就立即将一张纸放在了墙上,上面写着“一杯咖啡”。quickly迅速地。Suddenly突然地。Wisely明智地。Properly适当地;正确地。由“as soon as”可推断,后文应接“立即……”,故A项符合文章逻辑。
18.B 句意:服务员再次做了同样的事情。前文已经提到过一次服务员相同的举动,因此选择again,表示“再次”。instead反而。indeed的确。anyway无论如何。均不符合文章逻辑。B项正确。
19.C 句意:鉴于我们和这件事一点关系都没有,我们喝完咖啡就付钱离开了。作者虽然对大家的举动感到奇怪,但并不打算探究。空格处指代的应该是整件事。故选择matter,意为“事件”。C项正确。
20.D 句意:几天后,我们再次有机会去了这家咖啡店。本题考查固定搭配“have a chance to do sth.”意为“有机会做某事”。其它三项均搭配不当。答案为D项。
21.B 句意:这个男人的衣着打扮配不上这家咖啡店的档次。style风格。standard水准;标准。furniture家具。colour颜色。D项符合文章逻辑。
22.A 句意:服务员同样尊敬地给这个男人端上了咖啡。前文说到男人的衣着打扮并不符合这家店的档次,但根据上下文,这里表达的应该是:尽管如此,服务员还是以同样的态度招待了他。respect尊敬。courage勇气。result结果。custom习俗。“with respect”为常用搭配,意为“尊敬地;有礼貌地”。A项符合句意。
23.D 句意:服务员从墙上取下了一张纸,扔进了垃圾箱。由上下文可知,挂在墙上的一张张纸表示的是顾客为有需要的人提前预付的一杯杯咖啡。而每当有人喝掉一杯,就从墙上拿下一张纸。board木板。bill账单。table桌子。文章均未提及。D项符合上下文。
24.C 句意:现在我们没有一点疑问了。前文提到作者对大家的举动感到不解,但并未探究,此时才终于得知原因,打消了疑惑。choice选择。clue线索。doubt疑问。hope希望。C项符合题意。

CHANDLERHow much money are you and I paid each week, Jeff?
WHITEEighteen dollars. Why?
CHANDLERAnd how much of that eighteen dollars do you spend each week?

【语篇解读】本篇为对话类短文。Chandler希望每隔一段时间就攒钱去体验一下富人的生活,他的朋友表示不解,并且他因此而拖欠了房租。
【答案及解析】
28.A 本题是推理判断题。文章标题“scene one”,意为“第一幕”,经常运用在剧本中,由此可以推断,文章为剧本选段。play剧本。novel小说。poem诗歌。speech演讲。答案为A项。
29.B 本题是推理判断题。上文说到Chandler时不时攒钱去感受一下有钱人的生活,对此,White应该是感到出乎意料的,才会接着询问“Why?”。excited兴奋的。surprised.惊讶的;出乎意料的。bored无聊的。scared害怕的。C项符合对话语境。
30.C 本题是推理判断题。上文说到Chandler时不时攒钱去感受一下有钱人的生活。对此,他的朋友White的回应是“You’re crazy(你一定是疯了)”。而房东太太也认为,花钱去装富人还不如踏实过日子,按时把房租交了。可见,两者对Chandler的评价都是偏负面的。因此,答案为C项。practical意为“实际的;务实的”。
C
“Well, just take a look at that wheel
(航轮)!” Earl Cooper said to Candy, his wife. “It must beolder than anything we have back home.”
Earl was looking at the wall outside
the pub (酒馆). The pub’s name, The Old Swan, was on thewall. Next to the name was a wooden ship’s wheel and in the middle of the wheelwas the name of a ship, HMS Swan. The wheel was old, Earl could tell.
The next morning, Earl asked to seeTony Thatcher. The Old Swan was Tony’s pub. He took Earl to his office whileCandy had a coffee outside by the river. Earl said he could give Tony a lot ofmoney for the ship’s wheel. He told Tony that Benjamin Cooper, his grandfather,went to America on the ship HMS Swan. But Tony said no at first. After all, thewheel was very old and it was part of the pub’s past.
“You can think of the past, Mr.Thatcher—can I call you Ton[if !vml]
[endif]y?—or you can think of today. Andwith the money, Tony, you can buy a good car. Maybe a new Jaguar? And, as I’vetold you, the wheel is part of my family’s past too. So you could say it’sgoing back home, in a way. So, what do you say?”
A month[if !vml]
[endif]later, Earl and Candy were smilingas they looked at the wall of their house in Houston, Texas. Earl thought tohimself that, at last, he had a piece of his family’s past. He was happy.
In Portsmouth, Tony Thatcher was
happy, too. He was putting his new Jaguar into his large garage (车库). He was careful not to drive into any of the six ship’s wheels inthe garage. A friend of his made the wheels for him. They were just like theone that Earl bought. And there was another wheel on the outside wall of TheOld Swan now. Old or new—Tony thought there was no way that a tourist couldever know which was which. Never in a hundred years.
31. Why did Tony refuse to sell thewheel at first?
A. Because he thought it was old andpart of the pub’s past.
B. Because he wanted to show it wasimportant to his pub.
C. Because he tried to sell it tosomeone else at a higher price.
D. Because he did not really believewhat Earl had told him.
32.What can we infer (椎断) from the story?
A. Earl had looked for such a wheelfor a long time before that.
B. Earl would soon find out the truthand become rather angry.
C. Tony had sold quite a few wheelslike that and got wealthy.
D. Tony would play the same trickagain to make more money.
33. Which of the following can be thebest title of the story?
A. The Wheel on the Wall
B. An Excellent Buy
C. Old or New - Who Knows
D. the Family’s Past
【语篇解读】文章主要讲述了酒吧老板Tony囤积了很多航轮,并欺骗游客说每一个航轮都历史悠久,值得珍藏,从而将普通航轮卖得高价的故事。
【答案及解析】
31.B 本题是细节题。由题干关键词refuse to sell和at first可定位到第三段。由“After all, the wheel was very old and it was part of the pub’s
past”可知,Tony认为这个航轮已经历史悠久,并且成为了这个酒吧不可分割的一部分。但由后文可知,Tony是故意这么说以期卖得高价。故B项正确。
32.D 本题是推理判断题。由上下文可知,Tony囤积了很多航轮,并欺骗游客,每一个航轮都历史悠久,值得珍藏,从而将普通的航轮卖得高价。文章最后一段提到“six ship’s wheels in the garage”,即Tony还有很多航轮,并提到他打算继续这笔买卖,欺骗游客。A、B两项不符合文意。C项表述正确,但仅仅是列举文中所给事实,而题目要求是在所给事实的基础上做出推断。D项为合理推断。
33.A 本题是主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了酒吧老板Tony囤积了很多航轮,并欺骗游客说每一个航轮都历史悠久,值得珍藏,从而将普通航轮卖得高价的故事。整个故事都是围绕挂在墙上的航轮展开的,故A项符合文章大意。其他几个选项均是对文章部分内容的总结,不能作为大标题。
D
An early form of a game in which a
ball was kicked around a field is recorded in 1004 B.C. Japan. Some sports
historians believe that the game of soccer began in England in the third
century, however. They say that early English warriors (武士) kicked around the head of a[if !vml]
[endif]killed enemy. This may or may notbe true, but it is certain that soccer is an ancient sport.
Without doubt, the English playedsoccer during the times of King Edward I in the 1300s. In fact, the king passeda law against playing it. The law said, “There is great noise...caused bykicking large balls from which many ghosts may appear.” Anyone caught playingsoccer at that time was put into prison. Two hundred years later, QueenElizabeth I still had people put into prison for playing this “vulgar” sport.
Although there were such laws, soccer grew
more popular. In 1681, it became an official (正式的)sport in England. By the 1800s, people throughout the country played soccer. Bythe 18th century, upper-class boys played it at schools. Its popularity grewamong all English people.
At a meeting held in an English schoolin 1843, the first rules were suggested. In 1863 the heads of English soccerteams met in London to agree on some[if !vml]
[endif]official rules. They organized anEnglish football association (协会). By 1871 all of theEnglish clubs were following these rules. Today all soccer teams play by them.
Soccer is called “football” everywhere
but in the United States. The game is played mostly with feet. No players
except the goalie (守门员) may touch the ball with theirhands. They may control the ball with any part of the body except their hands.
Soccer is by far the world’s mostpopular sport. Every four years, nearly every country in the world fights forthe World Cup. Tens of billions of soccer fans from around the world watch theWorld Cup on television.
34. According to the passage, a“vulgar” sport probably _____.
A. appears to be rude
B. appears to be old
C. requires lots of energy
D. requires good teamwork
35. Which of the following shows t[if !vml]
[endif]he right order of the developmentof the game?
a. Upper-class boy students played itat schools.
b. An English football association wasorganized.
c. It became a popular sportthroughout England.
d. The rules were accepted by allEnglish clubs.
e. Playing the game was considered tobe guilty.
A. e-c-a-b-d.
B. e-c-a-d-b.
C. e-a-c-b-d.
D. e-a-c-d-b.
36.What can we learn from the passage?
A. It is certain[if !vml]
[endif]that soccer has a history of overl, 800 years.
B. The English had to play soccer insecret for two centuries.
C. Football is called"soccer" in the US because of the rules.
D. The king passed the law against thegame for a stupid reason.
37.This passage is mainly about _____.
A. why the game is so popular
B. how the game has developed
C. what the game is like
D. where the game first began
【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了足球运动的发展史。
【答案及解析】
34.A 本题是细节题。由题干关键词vulgar可定位到第二段。由“There is great noise”和“Queen Elizabeth I still had people put into prison for playing this
vulgar sport”可知,一方面踢足球噪音很大,另一方面这是违法的。B、D两项文中并未提及。C项“需要很多能量”与被法律禁止并无直接联系,可排除。故A项正确,即这项运动在当时被认为“太粗鲁”。
35.C 本题是细节题。a出现在第三段。b出现在第四段。c出现在第三段最后一句。d出现在第四段最后一句。e出现在第二段。文章按时间顺序组织,因此可以按各选项在文中出现的前后顺序排列。故C项正确。
36.D 本题是细节题。第二段提到:“Without doubt, the English played soccer during the times of King
Edward I in the 1300”,由此可知,确定出现足球的时间大概是14世纪,故A项错误。由第二段中“Two hundred years later, Queen
Elizabeth I still had people put into prison…”可知,两百年后,这一行为仍是违法的。但不能由此推断踢足球只在这两百年是违法的。B项过于绝对,可排除。文章主要介绍了“soccer”在英国的发展史,因此这应该是英式称呼,故C项错误。D项为正确选项。
37.B 本题是主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了足球运动的发展史。故B项正确。
笫Ⅱ卷(主观题共40分)
四、词汇运用(本大题共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)

3. Hey! Relax! No one will _____ (强迫) you to do that if you’re not willing to.
4. Many countries speak _____ (高度地) of China’s high-speed railway technologies.
【答案及解析】
1.race
句意:生命如同一场赛跑。你要么领先要么落后。空格处应填入名词单数形式“race”。
2.awake
句意:我想着她说的话,整晚都没睡着。stay awake为固定搭配,表示“醒着的”。
3.force
句意:嘿,放轻松!如果你不想做,没人会强迫你。此处考查固定搭配“force
sb. to do sth.”,意为“强迫某人做某事”。“will”表一般将来时,后接动词原形。故应填入force的原形。
4.highly
句意:很多国家高度评价中国的高铁技术。此处考查固定搭配“speak
highly of sth.”,意为“高度评价……”。故应填入highly。
(B) 根据句意,在答题卡对应题号的横线上,写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。
5. Don’t look at me like that! I’m
telling you the _____(true).
6. It is not polite to ask a stranger questions

5.truth
句意:别这么看着我,我跟你说的是实话。空格处应填入true的名词形式truth,表示“事实,真理”。
6.personal
句意:向陌生人询问他的私生活是不礼貌的。此处考查常用短语“personal
life”,意为“私生活”。故应填入person的形容词形式personal。
7.hung
句意:春节之前,沿街常常挂着红灯笼。red lanterns与hang为被动关系,应使用被动语态,即“be+动词过去式”。故应填入hang的过去式hung。另外要注意区分hang的两个过去式。hanged意为“绞死;上吊”;hung意为“悬挂”。
8.widely
句意:这个新系统现在被全球的信息技术公司广泛运用。此处考查常用短语“be
widely used by”,意为“被广泛应用于……”。故应填入wide的副词形式widely,表“广泛地”。
五、动词填空
用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空,并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。(本大题共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)

【答案及解析】
1.will keep
句意:相信我,我保证只有我们两个知道。现在,告诉我吧。由句意可知,说话人现在还没有被告知,因此,保守秘密也是将来的事。主句应使用一般将来时,即“will+动词原形”。故应填入keep的一般将来时形式will keep。
2.did not understand
句意:我很抱歉以前不理解你,但现在我理解了。由后半句可知,不理解是以前的事情,应使用一般过去时。故应填入not understand的过去式did not understand。
3.explains
句意:—Sally爱吃巧克力。—这可以解释为什么对她来说减肥那么困难。此处考查主谓一致。应填入explain的单数第三人称形式explains。
4.using
句意:如果你上网出现故障,就点一下这个图标求助。此处考查固定句型“have
problem/trouble (in) doing sth.”,意为“做某事有困难/障碍”,其中“in”可省略。故应填入use的现在分词形式using。
5.was talking
句意:—你为什么不接我电话?—我当时正在洗澡。但我一出来就给你回电话了。根据句意,主句应使用过去进行时,即“was/were+动词-ing”形式,表示过去某个时间点正在发生的事情。故应填入talk的过去进行时was talking。
6.to remember
句意:红场句型了一场大型阅兵游行以纪念二战中的死者。动词不定式“to do”可做目的状语,表示“为了”。故根据题意,此处应填入remember的不定式to remember。
7.are given
句意:聪明是天赋,善良是选择。天赋很简单,毕竟,它们是上天给予的。但选择可能会十分艰难。gift与give之间为被动关系,应使用被动语态,即“be+动词过去式”。故应填入be
give的过去式are given。注意主谓一致。
8.have grown
句意:—爸爸,这张照片里的小孩是我吗?—是呀,现在你已经成长为一个男人了,时间都去哪儿了啊?由时间状语now可推测,主句应使用现在完成时,即“have+动词过去分词”形式,强调对现在的影响。故应填入grow的现在完成时形式have grown。

【答案及解析】
1.short
由题干关键词“web log”可定位到第一句“A ‘blog’ is a shortened name for a ‘web log’”,即“日志(即博客)是网络日志的简称”。此处考查固定短语“be short for”,意为“是……的简称”。故此处应填入short。
2.diary
第一段提到,人们在博客中记录各种各样的事情,有些人用它们来记录自己的日常生活。可见,对一些人来说,博客的功能等同于日记。第二段中的“these features make blogs much more useful than traditional diaries(这些特质使博客比传统的日记更为实用)”进一步支持了这一点。故应填入diary。
3.increasing
由“‘Blogging’ has become very popular”可知,博客变得很流行,也就是说,使用博客的人越来越多。故填空处应填入increasing,表示“增长的”。
4.How
第三个副标题下的两个论点分别是:现在,信息、图片和视频都可以通过手机直传上网;在不远的将来,博客将成为寻找和分享信息的最重要的途径。由此可知,这里描述的主要是博客是如何发展的。因此,空格处填入“How”,表示“如何”。注意开头大写。
5.soon
由题干关键词“find and share information”可定位到最后一句“blogs are going to become one of the most important ways to find
and share information in the near future”,即“在不远的将来,博客将成为寻找和分享信息的最重要途径”。故此处应填入soon,意为“即将,马上”。

strict with me。
2.are not/aren’t worth replying to
“值得做某事”常表述为“be worth doing sth.”。“回复某人/事”可译为“reply to
sb./sth.”。故应填入aren’t worth replying to。注意主谓一致。
3.depend on who you are
“取决于”可译为“depend on”。后接宾语从句应使用陈述语序。故应填入depend on who
you are。
4.have been in love

“以……的方式”可译为“in a+adj.+way”。主语“《新天鹅湖》”与动词“编曲”之间为被动关系,应使用被动语态,即“be+动词过去式”。因此,空格处应填入一个完整的句子:it’s made up in a modern
way。

在写作时应采用倒叙形式,首先介绍小镇概况。其次,描绘过去的情况并并讲述发生改变的原因。最后,在实例的基础上对中国发生的类似情况提出建议,发出呼吁。
【参考范文】
Dear Editor,
I’m a student of Sydney University. Iam living in small town called Hartwell whose population is around 5,000. It isone of the “Australia’s Nicest Towns”. But things were very different in thepast. The local people used to burn wood to keep warm in the winter. A lot oftrees were cut down, which caused serious air pollution. Laws were soon made toprohibit this and people were encouraged to use clean energy. I think we can dosomething similar in China. Perhaps we can start with using less oil. I believewe can make our world a more and more beautiful if we keep trying.
Yours sincerely,
Jason Wu
