参考答案一、单项选择（共10小题，满分20分）1、D【解析】【详解】句意：丹尼尔想知道南通是否属于江苏省。考查宾语从句。根据主句“wanted”，可知从句要用过去的时态，所以A选项错误；B选项“that”不与“ornot”连用，所以B选项错误；从句要求为陈述句语序，C选项为疑问句语序，不符合；D选项遵循陈述句语序，南通属于江苏为客观真理，用一般现在时。故选D。2、D【解析】【详解】句意：不要拿你的孩子和别人比较，父母不应该把他们逼得太紧。考查动词辨析。consider考虑；regard认为；remind提醒；compare比较。comparesb.withsb.“把某人与某人作比较”。故选D。3、C【解析】【详解】句意：——你什么时候去上海？——我不知道新冠还严不严重。考查宾语从句。because因为；if是否；whether是否。whether...ornot为固定结构，表示“是否……”，放在know后引导宾语从句。故选C。4、A【解析】【详解】句意：——你能告诉我你什么时候到那里吗？——我不确定。但我明天一到那儿就给你打电话。考查动词时态。assoonas引导的时间状语从句表将来的事时，这时主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在，即：主将从现。本句主句是一般将来时，从句用一般现在时，主语是I，动词用原形。故选A。5、D【解析】【详解】句意：——医生们成功地挽救了病人吗？——是的。6月2日早晨他动了手术，现在他已脱离危险。考查一般过去时的被动语态。he与动词operate之间是被动的关系，因此要用被动语态，排除BC；operateonsb“为某人做手术”，on不能省略；而题干的on是时间介词。故选D。6、D【解析】【详解】句意：他等待着并且看着他的爸爸直到他消失在人群中。考查介词辨析。over在……上；behind在……后；towards朝；into到……里。disappearinto“消失在……中”，符合语境，故选D。7、D【解析】【详解】句意：——刚才的雨可真大啊！——我正在做饭，那时雨开始猛烈地打在窗户上。考查介词辨析。across穿过（表面）；through穿过（内部）；out外面；against碰撞。beatagainstthewindow表示“敲打窗户”。故选D。8、B【解析】【详解】句意：这段文章中的新词太多了，所以我不得不求助于词典。考查动词短语。turnon打开；turnto求助于；turnoff关掉。根据“Therearetoomanynewwordsinthepassage”可推断，遇到新词应该是“求助”词典。故选B。9、B【解析】【详解】句意：——妈妈，我长大后一定要像你一样当老师吗？——不，你不需要。你可以自己做决定。考查名词辨析。development发展；decision决定；difference差异；achievement成就。根据“mustIbeateacherlikeyouwhenIgrowup?”可知，此处在讨论长大后做什么，是对未来的决定，此处考查短语makeone’sowndecision“某人自己做决定”。故选B。10、A【解析】【详解】句意：——你叔叔有多么有用的知识！——是的。他曾经是一家国际公司的领导。考查感叹句。What引导感叹句的结构是：What+(a/an)+形容词+可数名词+主谓或What+形容词+不可数名词+主谓；How引导感叹句的结构是：How+形容词/副词+主谓。根据“…usefulknowledgeyourunclehas!”可知应是感叹句，且中心词“knowledge”是不可数名词，故要用What引导，故选A。二、完成句子（共5小题，满分10分）11、Itisdifficulttogiveaspeechinpublic【解析】【详解】Itisdifficulttodosth“做某事有困难”；giveaspeech“做演讲”；inpublic“当众”。故填Itisdifficulttogiveaspeechinpublic。12、decidetohandlethesecases【解析】【详解】decidetodo“决定做”；handle“处理”；thesecases“这些案例”。故填decidetohandlethesecases。13、Howoftendothey/theboysplaybasketball【解析】【详解】根据答语和图片可知，此处应询问“多久打一次篮球”。howoften“多久一次”，为疑问词；主语可用they或theboys；playbasketball“打篮球”；时态为一般现在时。故填Howoftendothey/theboysplaybasketball。14、Doyoulikemygarden【解析】【详解】根据所给的标点可知应用疑问句形式，分析所给的单词，此句为助动词do开头的一般疑问句，且为一般现在时态。you是主语；谓语动词是like，mygarden作like的宾语。故填Doyoulikemygarden“你喜欢我的花园吗”。15、Thousands【解析】【详解】句意：自去年向公众开放以来，已有成千上万的人参观了周遥昆虫博物馆。“千”thousand，结合“of”可知用thousandsof表示“数以千计的，成千上万的”，句子开头首字母大写。故填Thousands。三、补全对话（10分）16、1.HowlongdidyoustayinSanya2.Howwasyourtrip3.Whatwastheweatherlike4.Yes,Idid【解析】【导语】本文主要是Lucy和Tina的对话。对话的主要内容是：Tina上个月去三亚旅行，介绍了在三亚的体会，最后Lucy希望自己有一天也能去三亚旅行。【1题详解】根据下文“Ihavebeentherefortwoweeks.”可知，此处在询问在那待了多久。故填HowlongdidyoustayinSanya。【2题详解】根据“Itwasexcellent.”可知，此处在询问旅行怎么样。故填Howwasyourtrip。【3题详解】根据“Itwashotandsunnyallthetime.”可知，此处在询问那里的天气。故填Whatwastheweatherlike。【4题详解】根据“Didyoubringyourcameraandtakeanyphotos?”以及“ItookmanyphotosandI’llshowthemtoyoulater.”可知，Tina带相机拍了很多照片，因此此处用一般疑问句的肯定回答。故填Yes,Idid。四、阅读理解（40分）17、1.A2.A3.B4.C【解析】【导语】本文主要介绍了一些食物能够帮助你提高记忆力。【1题详解】细节理解题。根据表格内容可知提到了牛奶、深绿色蔬菜、香蕉、鱼、鸡蛋、全谷物六种食物。故选A。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“Youcanaddabananatoyourbreakfast.Itwillbeeasierforyoutofocusonwhattheteacherssay.”及“Tryacupoftea.Notonlydoesitkeepyourbrainworkingright,italsohelpstorelaxandfightagainstmentaltiredness.”可知香蕉能让人集中精力听老师说，一杯茶能帮助人对抗困倦。由此可知感到瞌睡的话可以喝茶或吃香蕉。故选A。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据“Ifyou’rereallyseriousaboutimprovingyourmemory,don’tforgettomaketimeforagoodbreakfast.Astudyfoundbreakfasthelpedpeoplescorebetteronmemorytests.”可知早餐也非常重要。故选B。【4题详解】主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一些食物能够帮助你提高记忆力，“向学生们介绍健康食物”是文章的写作目的。故选C。18、1.C2.B3.C4.D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇寓言故事。讲述了一只小鸟被商人困在笼子里，它用自己的聪明智慧，最终获得了自由。【1题详解】细节理解题。根据“HewasgoingtoIndia,thelandfromwherethebirdcame；Thenheaskedthebusinessmantovisitajungle(丛林)inIndia...there”可知，这只鸟来自印度的丛林。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“Thenheaskedthebusinessmantovisitajungle(丛林)inIndiaandannouncehiscaptivity(囚禁)tothefreebirdswhowerethere”可知，这是小鸟的诉求。“didso”指代上文提到的事，表示商人照小鸟的诉求做了。故选B。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据“Assoonasthesewordswerespoken,thebusinessman’sbirdcollapsedandfelltothebottomofthecage.‘Thenewsofhisfriend’sdeathhaskilledhim,too’；Atoncethebirdgotupandflewtoanearbytree.”可知，小鸟在装死。故选C。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据“Themessageyoubroughtbackwasactuallytellingmehowtofreemyself.”可知，商人带回来的消息教会了小鸟救自己，因此对小鸟来说是好消息。故选D。19、1.B2.A3.C4.A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了元宵节的习俗和活动。【1题详解】细节理解题。根据“Apartfromtheround-shapedyuanxiao,anotherbelovedpartofthecelebrationisthelanterns,whichcomeinalmosteverypossiblesizeandshape”可知除了吃元宵，猜灯谜也是元宵节的一个传统。故选B。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“LanternFestivalwasatitsheightintheTangandSongdynasties.”可知唐宋时期，元宵节最受欢迎。故选A。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据“Thefestivalalsoprovidedachanceforunmarriedyounggirlstogooutfreelyinsearchoftheirtruelove,sincetheyweren’tnormallyallowedtodoso.”可知这个节日还为未婚的年轻女孩提供了一个自由外出寻找真爱的机会。故选C。【4题详解】词句猜测题。willowtree“柳树”；hangs“悬挂”；themoon“月亮”；mydate“我的约会对象”；comes“来”；intheevening“傍晚”。结合选项可知此句的意思是“月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后”。故选A。20、1.C2.A3.C4.D5.C【解析】【导语】本文介绍了世界上各种语言中“爸爸”与“妈妈”的发音相似的原因。【1题详解】推理判断题。根据“Andasyouknow,inAmerica,kidscalltheirmother‘Mom’or‘Mommy’.InFrench,thewordis‘Maman’,andinArabic(阿拉伯语),it’s‘Ummi’.”可知，此处列举了一些语言中“妈妈”的叫法，由此可知此处是通过举例子来说明不同国家“妈妈”一词的发音相似。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“Butwhyarethewordsfor‘mother’and‘father’sosimilar?Theanswerliesinhowbabiesstarttotalk.”可知，如果我们想要理解各国的“妈妈”和“爸爸”听起来相似的原因，我们应该知道婴儿开始说话的方式。故选A
