参考答案一、单项选择（共10小题，满分20分）1、B【解析】【详解】句意：春节期间，大多数人选择在家休息，以避开人群，而不是四处旅游。考查介词短语。Inthefaceof面对；Insteadof代替；Becauseof由于；Accordingto根据。根据空格后“travelingaroundduringtheholiday”可知四处旅游与待在家形成对比，应用insteadof，故选B。2、B【解析】【详解】句意：这篇作文写得不好。而且里面还有很多拼写错误。考查副词辨析。However然而；Moreover而且；Otherwise否则；Anyway不管怎样。根据“Thecompositionisnotwellwritten....therearemanyspellingmistakes.”可知，作文不但不好，还有拼写错误，因此Moreover符合语境。故选B。3、B【解析】【详解】句意：——汤姆，我听说你们班鲍勃跑步最快。是真的吗？——不。事实上，他不如约翰跑得快。考查副词最高级和原级。fast“快的/快速地”，形容词/副词，比较级是faster，表示“更快的/地”，最高级是fastest，表示”最快的/地”。根据比较的范围“inyourclass（在你们班）”可知，此处是三者以上相比较，应使用最高级，排除选项C和D。第二空考查短语：notas+副词原级+as，表示“前者不如后者……”，空格处用原级。故选B。4、A【解析】【详解】句意：——对不起，先生，这里不允许吸烟。看那个禁止吸烟的标志。——对不起。我没有看到。考查一般现在时的被动语态。主语You“你”和动词allow“允许”之间为被动关系；根据语境可知，此处表示当下的状态，时态为一般现在时，且为否定形式。所以此处结构应为“aren’tdone”。故选A。5、B【解析】【详解】句意：——非常感谢你，琳达。你使我们能够按时完成这项工作。——小事一桩。考查代词辨析。one一个；it它；this这个；that那个。根据“Youmake…possibleforustofinishtheworkintime.”可知，makeitpossibletodosth.“使做某事成为可能”，it作形式宾语。故选B。6、B【解析】【详解】句意：——Judy，你能告诉我你在哪儿买的玩具吗？——当然了。在我家附近的一家商店里。考查宾语从句。宾语从句用陈述语序，故排除AC项；根据答语中“Inastorenearmyhouse.”可知是问地点，应用where引导的宾语从句。故选B。7、B【解析】【详解】句意：请远离垃圾食品。这对我们很不利，尤其是对孩子。考查副词辨析。recently最近；especially尤其；probably可能；suddenly突然。根据“It’sbadforus...forchildren”可知垃圾食品尤其对孩子不好。故选B。8、C【解析】【详解】句意：——莉莉，你能告诉我时装秀什么时候开始吗？——当然。明天上午十点开始。考查宾语从句。宾语从句为陈述语序，故排除选项B；又因为答语“Itwillstartattentomorrowmorning.”为时间，所以此处应为询问时装秀时间，故选C。9、C【解析】【详解】句意：当Jenny到达他的办公室时，他正在和他妈妈讲电话。考查动词时态。根据“WhenJennygottohisoffice”可知，时态为过去进行时，结构是“was/weredoing”。故选C。10、B【解析】【详解】句意：在我们的生活中的这些人之中，有些人教导我们，有些人分享，有些人去爱。考查介词辨析。Except除……外；Among在……当中；By通过；With和。根据“somearetoteachus,sometoshareandsometolove”可知此处指在三者以上之中，用Among。故选B。二、完成句子（共5小题，满分10分）11、Therearemanyinterestingactivities【解析】【详解】根据所给标点符号可知，本句是陈述句。此处是therebe句型；manyinteresting是限定词修饰主语activities。故填Therearemanyinterestingactivities“有许多有趣的活动”。12、WhatisMrs.Wangdoingnow【解析】【详解】根据所给标点符号可知，本句是疑问句。what是疑问词，位于句首，后加be动词is；Mrs.Wang作主语；doing和前面的is构成现在进行时；now作状语，放置于句末。故填WhatisMrs.Wangdoingnow“王太太现在在做什么”。13、Ihaveneverbeentoasciencemuseum【解析】【详解】根据所给标点符号可知应用陈述句的形式，分析所给单词，I作主语，时态为过去完成时，haveneverbeento为谓语动词，amuseum名词作表语。故填Ihaveneverbeentoasciencemuseum“我从来没有去过科学博物馆”。14、avoid【解析】【详解】句意：政府修建了绿墙以防止土壤被冲走。根据英语解释“preventorstop”可推出此处用avoid表示“避免，防止”，to后用动词原形构成动词不定式。故填avoid。15、achieve【解析】【详解】句意：我们相信通过我们的努力，我们可以在未来实现我们的梦想。根据音标提示可知，该单词为achieve“实现”，情态动词can后跟动词原形。故填achieve。三、补全对话（10分）16、1.B2.F3.A4.E5.D【解析】【导语】本文是关于年轻人生病去看医生，和医生之间进行的一则对话。【1题详解】根据“What’sthematterwithyou?”可知，此处是回答医生自己怎么样，选项B“我觉得很难受。”符合语境。故选B。【2题详解】根据“Itookacoldshowerafterabasketballgameyesterdayafternoon.”可知，此处是讲病情是如何发展的，选项F“然后我开始咳嗽。”符合语境。故选F。【3题详解】根据“Letmegiveyouanexamination.Openyourmouthandsay‘ah’.”可知，此处是医生检查后的结果，选项A“你感冒了。”符合语境。故选A。【4题详解】根据“Isitserious?”及“No”可知，此处是说病情不严重，应该采取的措施，选项E“只是休息一下并多喝热水。”符合语境。故选E。【5题详解】根据“DoIneedtotakesomemedicine?”及“No”可知，此处是提醒病人一些注意事项，选项D“但是记住不要在运动后洗冷水澡。”符合语境。故选D。四、阅读理解（40分）17、1.tomeet2.wasgiving3.a4.teach5.them6.realized7.Luckily8.stories9.easier10.for【解析】【导语】本文讲述了作者参加孔商学院汉语课的事情，并从这件事情中明白了：只要用心去做，没有什么是难的。【1题详解】句意：搬到一个新城市后，我想在空闲时间做点什么来结识新朋友。空处表示目的，应用不定式作目的状语，故填tomeet。【2题详解】句意：我发现孔商学院正在开设汉语夜校。根据“IfoundthattheBusinessConfuciusInstitute...Chineseeveningclasses.”可知，此处表达的动作是正在进行的，且发生在过去，应用过去进行时，主语是单数名词，be动词用was，故填wasgiving。【3题详解】句意：每周上一节课。结合“onelesson...week”可知，此处表示频率，指的是“一周一次课”，应用不定冠词修饰名词，week是辅音音素开头的单词，应用a修饰，故填a。【4题详解】句意：每节课他都会教我们很多新单词。would后接动词原形，故填teach。【5题详解】句意：然后让我们把它们表演成短剧。空处作宾语，应用宾格，故填them。【6题详解】句意：几天后，我意识到下课后我的头越疼，我吸收的信息就越多。陈述过去的事情，动词用过去式，故填realized。【7题详解】句意：幸运的是，我的新中国朋友经常帮我复习课堂上学到的东西。空处修饰整个句子，应用副词，故填Luckily。【8题详解】句意：他们还给我讲了一些有趣的故事，比如花木兰和孙悟空的故事。空前有some修饰，名词应用复数形式，故填stories。【9题详解】句意：我认为汉语语法比英语语法容易（至少在初级班）。结合“than”可知，此处用比较级形式，故填easier。【10题详解】句意：阅读和写作目前对我来说仍然很困难。behardforsb“对某人来说有困难”，是固定短语，故填for。18、1.C2.A3.D4.B【解析】【导语】本文介绍了手机占据了我们大部分的时间，很多人都想远离手机，由此介绍了一款监测用户使用手机次数及限制用户使用其他软件的时长的App，这个App可能对一些人有用，而真正能使人远离手机的还是我们的意志力。【1题详解】词义猜测题。根据“...theywanttogetawayfromtheinternetandstayawayfrommobilephones.However,itisaverytallorderespeciallynowinChinabecauseweuseourphonestopayforeverythingweboughteveryday.”可知，人们想远离互联网和手机，然而这是一个难以实现的要求，尤其是在现在的中国，因为我们每天都用手机支付我们买的所有东西。划线词汇tallorder应意为“困难的事情，难以实现的要求”，与“difficultthing”近义。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Forexample,userscanseehowmanytimesthey’veunlockedtheirphones,howmanytimesthey’vecheckedtheirsocialmediaapps,andhowmuchtimetheyspendoneachappeveryday.”可知，新的应用程序的功能包括“检查用户在应用程序上花费了多少时间”、“列出用户解锁手机的次数”和“显示用户查看社交媒体应用程序的次数”，但不包括“阻止手机用户使用意志力”。故选A。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据“Andwithanotherfunction,theappgetsincomingcallssilentwhentheuserputsthephonefacedown.”可知，用户把手机正面朝下，该应用程序会将来电静音。故选D。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Afterall,whoneedstouseanapptostopyoufromusingotherapps?Theeasiestanswerwouldbejusttouseyourwillpower(毅力).”及通读全文可知，本文讲述了手机占据了我们大部分的时间，很多人都想远离手机，由此介绍了一款监测用户使用手机次数及限制用户使用其他软件的时长的App，这个App可能对一些人有用，而真正能使人远离手机的还是我们的意志力。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是想告诉我们，不管使用什么App，阻止我们使用手机的最简单的办法是我们的意志力。故选B。19、1.B2.C3.A4.A5.D【解析】【导语】本文主要介绍了新加坡的中学学生艰苦却有趣的学校生活。【1题详解】细节理解题。根据“Goodeducationisoftenregardedasatickettosuccessintheirfuture.”可知良好的教育往往被视为他们未来成功的门票。故选B。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“someofthemareevenmadetogotoremedial(补习的)classesafterschool.”可知他们中的一些人甚至被要求去补习班，即不是所有学生。故选C。【3题详解】
