I have lived in China for six years, but still think the country is mysterious. So I made up my mind to go on a 3-month cycling journey to discover more.
My cycling journey was very safe in China because I never had a moment in which I felt I was in danger. Wherever I went, there was always phone signal, and even WeChat pay.
The beauty of nature was also fantastic. It simply took my breath away when I cycled on the way. With thick forests, blue lakes and green hills, there was so much to see.
The food was another highlight of my journey. I got to taste local food in every place I went. My favourite was the spicy food in Sichuan. No matter how much I ate, I never got sick of having different Chinese foods. There were so many different choices.
In addition, cycling in China cost less than I thought. I could even save some money during the trip to support a local charity (慈善).
The best part was about people. I met people from different ethnic minorities (少数民族) across China and I was even invited to attend a wedding by Tibetan girls. The wedding was amazing, full of dancing, laughter and fun. One time I met a group of Chinese men who were also travelling, but by motorcycle. They invited me to stay with them in the mountains. We cooked fish that we caught from the lake together. It felt like true freedom from the busy feeling of daily life. Another example was impressive. When I met a group of cyclists in their 60s, they cycled better than me. It really encouraged (鼓励) me to push myself and go farther every day. Also, an experienced cyclist saved me when I got a flat tire (爆胎). He helped fix my tire.
By the end of my journey, I wanted to keep going. I felt like I could do it forever. It was truly an experience I will never forget. If anyone wants to explore in China, I would highly recommend going by bicycle.
4. What does the writer talk about in Paragraph 3
A. Phone signal. B. Different foods. C. Natural beauty. D. Cheap cost.
5. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 6 refers to (指代) “ _________”.
A. Tibetan girls inviting the writer to a wedding
B. cyclists in their 60s cycling better than the writer
C. a group of Chinese men catching fish with the writer
D. an experienced cyclist helping the writer to fix a flat tire
6. What is the best title for the passage
A. What a Pleasant Picnic! B. What Great People!
C. What an Amazing Journey! D. What a Lucky Day!
C
After the haircut
It’s getting hot. You go to have your hair cut. The barber Tony cuts off part of your hair and sweeps it away, but your hair’s journey is not over after the haircut.
Have you ever thought of planting your old hair after it’s cut off Some farmers do! What comes up Not wigs (假发), but bigger and tastier crops. Hair is full of nitrogen (氮) that helps plants to grow. When cut hair is mixed into soil, the hair breaks down, slowly letting out nitrogen so it can help flowers and vegetables get big a little faster.
If you’ve got a wool sweater on, you’re wearing a sheep’s haircut. Sheep grow fine curly (弯曲的) fur called wool. All those curls make air pockets that trap heat, keeping the sheep warm. Farmers shear the sheep in summer, so the sheep don’t feel too hot. And we use the hair to make warm clothes, socks, and hats. Wool can even take in rain without feeling wet. Wool also doesn’t catch fire easily.
What does your hair say about you Even many years after it has been cut, hair can tell surprising secrets. Because hair is made from bits of old cells, it has trace (微量) of chemicals (化学物质) that were in the body when the hair grew. When people are kept in the situation of dangerous chemicals, these traces remain in the hair, even long after they have disappeared from the body itself. Testing hair can help doctors know if there are dangerous chemicals in the food and water. Hair can tell another important secret — whose hair is it This can be used to help solve crimes.
Hair does so many things for us. It keeps us warm and cool, helps farmers, shows mysteries, and provides endless styling fun. One thing is for sure, it’s not just for wigs any more.
7. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage
A. Fashion. B. Science. C. History. D. Health.
8 What does the underlined part “shear the sheep” mean
A Give enough food to the sheep. B. Wash the sheep many times.
C. Find living place for the sheep. D. Cut the wool off the sheep.
9. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. Hair helps keep warm. B. Hair testing is important.
C. Hair can tell secrets. D. Hair helps solve crimes.
10. How is the passage organized (组织) (P: Paragraph)
A. B. C. D.

He also gives some advice to students. “During your free time, you should practice more. When you’re speaking in public, take it easy. Just imagine you’re talking to nobody and speak up your ideas clearly, which helps you to be at the ____9___ (high) of your powers.” Zhou said. “That makes a fine public speech and you will enjoy ____10____ (you).”

二、单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,共10分)
1. The boy in ________ uniform is such ________ honest student that everyone trusts him.
A. the; the B. an; a C. a; an D. a; the
【答案】C
【详解】句意:那个穿制服的男孩是一个诚实的学生,大家都信任他。
考查冠词。a用于辅音音素开头的单词前;an用于元音音素开头的单词前;the表示泛指。in a uniform“穿制服的”,第一空用a;根据句意可知,第二空应填“一个”诚实的学生,honest为元音音素开头的单词,用an。故选C。
2. Don’t just believe the advertisement. That medicine doesn’t work ________ it says.
A. as better as B. as good as C. so good as D. so well as
【答案】D
【详解】句意:不要只相信广告。那药不如它说的那么有效。
考查原级比较。not as/so+副词/形容词(原级)+as...表示“不如……”,所以排除选项A,根据空前work可知,此处需用副词修饰动词。故选D。
3. The train is coming. Let’s ________ one by one.
A. get it on B. get on it C. get it off D. get off it
【答案】B
【详解】句意:火车就要来了。我们一个接一个上车吧。
考查动词短语。get on上车;get off下车。根据“the train is coming.”可知,火车就要来了,应该是要上车,get on中的on是介词,不是副词,因此代词it应放在on之后。故选B。
4. Boys and girls, the more ________ you are during the exam, the ________ mistakes you’ll make.
A. carefully; less B. carelessly; fewer C. careful; more D. careless; more
【答案】D
【详解】句意:同学们,你们在考试中越粗心,犯的错误就越多。
考查比较级的用法。carefully仔细地,副词;carelessly粗心地,副词;careful小心的,形容词;careless粗心的,形容词;less更少的,修饰不可数名词;fewer更少的,修饰可数名词复数;more更多的。此处为“the+比较级,the+比较级”的用法,表示“越……,就越……”。根据“the more...you are during the exam”可知,第一个空需填一个形容词,所以排除选项A和B;根据备选项C和D,可知,空二应用more,根据“the more mistakes you’ll make”可知,第一个空表示越粗心。故选D。
5. —Not only I but also my sister ________ good at English.
—That’s good. Learning foreign languages ________ great fun.
A. is; is B. is; are C. are; are D. are; is
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——不仅我,我妹妹也擅长英语。——那很好。学习外语很有趣。
考查主谓一致。not only...but also...连接主语时,谓语动词遵循“就近原则”。第一个空,be动词的数与其最近的主语“my sister”保持一致,因此用单数形式“is”;第二个空,动名词短语“Learning foreign languages”作主语,be动词也用单数形式“is”。故选A。
6. The boy with no ________ of time is often late for school.
A. interest B. way C. sense D. plan
【答案】C
【详解】句意:这个没有时间观念的男孩经常上学迟到。
考查名词辨析interest兴趣;way方式;sense观念;plan计划。根据“is often late for school”可知,这个男孩没有时间观念,have no sense of time指“没有时间观念”。故选C。
7. —Who taught ________ skiing
—Nobody. They learnt all by ________.
A. their; themselves B. them; themselves C. their; them D. them; them
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——谁教他们滑雪?——没有人。他们都是自学的。
考查代词用法。their他们的,形容词性物主代词;themselves他们自己,反身代词;them他们,宾格。第一空作动词taught的宾语,所以用人称代词宾格形式them;第二空中,learn by oneself表示“自学”,所以使用反身代词themselves。故选B。
8. —Do you know Shanghai is one of ________ cities in the world
—Yes, it’s bigger than ________ city in China.
A. the biggest; any other B. the biggest; any C. bigger; any other D. bigger; the other
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——你知道上海是世界上最大的城市之一吗?——是的,它比中国的任何其他城市都大。
考查形容词最高级及比较级。“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”表示“最……的……之一”,第一空填the biggest,排除C和D;第二空用“比较级+than any other+名词”结构,表示“比其余任何一个……都……”,排除B。故选A。
9. We can put the prefix “un-” before ________ to give it the opposite(相反的) meaning.
A. certain B. active C. correct D. possible
【答案】A
【详解】句意:我们可以把前缀“un-”放在certain之前,赋予它相反的含义。
考查形容词前缀。certain的反义词是uncertain;active的反义词是inactive;correct的反义词是incorrect;possible的反义词是impossible。结合选项可知,选项A符合。故选A。
10. —What do you think of your new job
—________. I am thinking of changing another job.
A. Pretty nice B. Can’t be better C. Can’t be worse D. Not too bad

I have lived in China for six years, but still think the country is mysterious. So I made up my mind to go on a 3-month cycling journey to discover more.
My cycling journey was very safe in China because I never had a moment in which I felt I was in danger. Wherever I went, there was always phone signal, and even WeChat pay.
The beauty of nature was also fantastic. It simply took my breath away when I cycled on the way. With thick forests, blue lakes and green hills, there was so much to see.
The food was another highlight of my journey. I got to taste local food in every place I went. My favourite was the spicy food in Sichuan. No matter how much I ate, I never got sick of having different Chinese foods. There were so many different choices.
In addition, cycling in China cost less than I thought. I could even save some money during the trip to support a local charity (慈善).
The best part was about people. I met people from different ethnic minorities (少数民族) across China and I was even invited to attend a wedding by Tibetan girls. The wedding was amazing, full of dancing, laughter and fun. One time I met a group of Chinese men who were also travelling, but by motorcycle. They invited me to stay with them in the mountains. We cooked fish that we caught from the lake together. It felt like true freedom from the busy feeling of daily life. Another example was impressive. When I met a group of cyclists in their 60s, they cycled better than me. It really encouraged (鼓励) me to push myself and go farther every day. Also, an experienced cyclist saved me when I got a flat tire (爆胎). He helped fix my tire.
By the end of my journey, I wanted to keep going. I felt like I could do it forever. It was truly an experience I will never forget. If anyone wants to explore in China, I would highly recommend going by bicycle.

After the haircut
It’s getting hot. You go to have your hair cut. The barber Tony cuts off part of your hair and sweeps it away, but your hair’s journey is not over after the haircut.
Have you ever thought of planting your old hair after it’s cut off Some farmers do! What comes up Not wigs (假发), but bigger and tastier crops. Hair is full of nitrogen (氮) that helps plants to grow. When cut hair is mixed into soil, the hair breaks down, slowly letting out nitrogen so it can help flowers and vegetables get big a little faster.
If you’ve got a wool sweater on, you’re wearing a sheep’s haircut. Sheep grow fine curly (弯曲的) fur called wool. All those curls make air pockets that trap heat, keeping the sheep warm. Farmers shear the sheep in summer, so the sheep don’t feel too hot. And we use the hair to make warm clothes, socks, and hats. Wool can even take in rain without feeling wet. Wool also doesn’t catch fire easily.
What does your hair say about you Even many years after it has been cut, hair can tell surprising secrets. Because hair is made from bits of old cells, it has trace (微量) of chemicals (化学物质) that were in the body when the hair grew. When people are kept in the situation of dangerous chemicals, these traces remain in the hair, even long after they have disappeared from the body itself. Testing hair can help doctors know if there are dangerous chemicals in the food and water. Hair can tell another important secret — whose hair is it This can be used to help solve crimes.
Hair does so many things for us. It keeps us warm and cool, helps farmers, shows mysteries, and provides endless styling fun. One thing is for sure, it’s not just for wigs any more.
7. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage
A. Fashion. B. Science. C. History. D. Health.

A. Hair helps keep warm. B. Hair testing is important.
C. Hair can tell secrets. D. Hair helps solve crimes.

【答案】7. B 8. D 9. C 10. A
