Camila lived in Belize City, Belize, a country in Central America. One day, her father said to her, “I’m going to Glover’s Reef this weekend. Would you like to join me ”
“Of course!” Camila replied excitedly.
While they were flying to the town of Dangriga, Camila’s father explained that Glover’s Reef was one of the largest coral reef systems (珊瑚礁系统) in the world. Hundreds of fish and coral species (物种) lived in these reefs. However, many coral reefs were dying from pollution.
After they arrived at the park where Glover’s Reef was, Camila and her father put on their goggles (游泳镜) and entered the blue waters. The beauty of the underwater world astonished Camila. She had never seen so many fish swim around her. She also watched the colorful coral. Camila saw how the plants and animals of the reef lived together perfectly. She took many pictures with her father’s underwater camera. It was the most exciting experience of her life.
As they left the water, Camila and her father heard a loud noise. Then they saw a large speedboat filled with tourists racing towards the reef area.
“They’ll scare the fish!” shouted Camila.
“There’s nothing we can do,” said her father. “They’re just outside of the park.”
Hearing that, Camila was angry and upset.
Back in Belize City, Camila spoke to her class about coral reefs. At home, Camila created a petition (请愿书) online. It read: Governments of the world, please help the ocean’s coral reefs. Keep our coral reefs safe and healthy for everyone.
In three weeks, 20,000 people in 38 countries signed (签署) Camila’s petition. Within one year, three countries passed laws to protect their coral reefs.
“You have made a difference, Camila,” said her father. “Thank you! The coral reefs of the world thank you, too.”

In Singapore, primary and high school students take outdoor-skills courses as part of their studies. They are usually three to five days long and include rope and rock climbing, going to sea in a small boat, sleeping in a tent at night, taking long walks in the forest, and learning to make a fire. It’s real life. One careless mistake could make someone really get hurt. Are those outdoor skills really important
Minister of Education Ng Chee Meng says that the outdoor courses help students develop skills like critical thinking (批判性思维), teamwork, and good communication — abilities that are necessary for work and life. He believes that these skills are as important as traditional subjects. Students need to learn from books, but for some lessons, reading isn’t as useful as doing.
What do the students think Angelique, a student from Singapore, went for a boat trip in the sea. “It helped me to grow stronger,” she says. The trip was stressful because it was stormy that day. There were moments (片刻) when she felt afraid and hopeless. But she remembered that “smooth seas never made a skilled sailor (水手)” and felt brave enough to continue against the storm. “I am thankful for this amazing chance,” she says.
Right now, students attend the courses with groups from their own school. After 2020, however, all students will do the course in groups from several different schools. Why does this matter Good communication skills are more important now than ever. Working closely with students from other backgrounds is a great way to learn this useful lesson.
One student said it this way, “There is nothing to be afraid of and nothing’s impossible.” And that’s a great lesson to learn.
28. What do we know about the outdoor-skills courses from Paragraph 1
A. They are similar to P.E.
B. They are usually one week long.
C. Students may get hurt in the courses.
29. According to Ng Chee Meng, the outdoor courses _______.
A. are less useful than reading
B. teach students necessary work and life skills
C. can help with students’ other subjects
30. The writer uses Angelique’s example to show _______.
A. why the courses are popular
B. what the courses are really like
C. what students think of the courses
31. What can be the best title of the passage
A. Outdoor classroom
B. Education in Singapore
C. Important outdoor skills

Are you scared of moving up to senior high school It can be a worrying experience, but you shouldn't worry about it. We've put together a guide on how to get through the first week.
You're not alone! 32 They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Moving up to senior high school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different. 33
Teachers are ready to help! If you are unsure of what to do or worrying about anything, then ask teachers for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they're experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student who will look out for you and help you.
Changes. There are many differences between junior high school and senior high school. 34 You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable so you know which rooms your classes will be in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points. If you've got an older brother or sister at school, then ask him or her for advice. Be yourself! 35 Also you must go to bed early and get up early to get ready for school.
A. It sounds simple, but people will know you better and get close to you if you act naturally.B. You will get surprisedC. All you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.D. So make sure you get organized.E. Remember everybody in your class is in the same boat.

Can you cook by yourself Do you like the homework of making a meal These days, primary and middle school students are required to take the Practical Activity Class (实践活动课) at least one class hour every week. The topic of cooking was discussed mostly by parents and students. Learning practical skills plays an important role in shaping a person’s character for sure.
Some schools and students have already practiced their practical activities. Gu Quan, 13 years old, from No.18 Middle School, used to be a lazy boy. In his own words, he hardly ever did any housework. But things have changed since No.18 Middle School made housework part of its students’ homework. Doing the dishes, cooking and making the bed... All of these tasks have become part of Gu Quan’s daily life.
At the beginning of each month, every student gets a list of housework to do every weekend. Their parents help them keep a record of their performance. The tasks are common and simple in daily life, such as sweeping the floor, washing cups and cooking food. On holidays like Mother’s Day, students should prepare presents for their mothers. Huang Yixi, 14, has learned several life kills, including cooking. “I used to be afraid of fire.” she said. But she managed to overcome ear and complete her cooking tasks. At the same time, she also learned how tired her mother gets after doing housework every day. On Mother’s Day, she made a cake for her mother to show her thanks. “I’ve begun to better understand my parents and want to help them more.” she said.

Dear Mike,
I’m very happy to receive your e-mail. From it, I have learned that you are having trouble with deciding if you should tell a lie or tell the truth.
Yes, it’s not always bad to tell a lie. Sometimes it’s necessary for us to do so. For example, if you don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings by telling the truth, you can lie.
I have lied to my best friend before. Once, during an English test when she wanted to copy my paper, I told a lie. I said I hadn’t finished it. She got very angry and didn’t talk to me after the test. A few days later when I was going to have a talk with her, she said she had realized what she did wrong. She said sorry to me. We became friends again.
I hope my advice helps you. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

As they left the water, Camila and her father heard a loud noise. Then they saw a large speedboat filled with tourists racing towards the reef area.
“They’ll scare the fish!” shouted Camila.
“There’s nothing we can do,” said her father. “They’re just outside of the park.”
Hearing that, Camila was angry and upset.
Back in Belize City, Camila spoke to her class about coral reefs. At home, Camila created a petition (请愿书) online. It read: Governments of the world, please help the ocean’s coral reefs. Keep our coral reefs safe and healthy for everyone.
In three weeks, 20,000 people in 38 countries signed (签署) Camila’s petition. Within one year, three countries passed laws to protect their coral reefs.
“You have made a difference, Camila,” said her father. “Thank you! The coral reefs of the world thank you, too.”

24. A。本小题考查学生根据上下文猜测词义的能力。由本句后文所用的一些表达：She had never seen, the colorful coral, perfectly, took many pictures, the most exciting experience都可看出那个地方的美及Camila被震惊的感受，故划线单词意思为A。
25. C。本小题考查学生查找细节信息的能力。由倒数第四段可知Camila was angry and upset，原因是倒数第五、六段所说的内容：快艇吓跑了鱼，Camila和父亲对这一切无能为力，故答案为C。
26. B。本小题考查学生理解具体信息的能力。由倒数第二段可知人们对Camila请愿书的反应：时间短，参与人数众多，并有三个国家为此立法，选项B与此内容吻合。
27. B。本小题考查学生推理判断的能力。由Camila对快艇吓跑鱼的反应及写关于保护珊瑚礁的请愿书的举动，可知Camila很关注珊瑚礁。

In Singapore, primary and high school students take outdoor-skills courses as part of their studies. They are usually three to five days long and include rope and rock climbing, going to sea in a small boat, sleeping in a tent at night, taking long walks in the forest, and learning to make a fire. It’s real life. One careless mistake could make someone really get hurt. Are those outdoor skills really important
Minister of Education Ng Chee Meng says that the outdoor courses help students develop skills like critical thinking (批判性思维), teamwork, and good communication — abilities that are necessary for work and life. He believes that these skills are as important as traditional subjects. Students need to learn from books, but for some lessons, reading isn’t as useful as doing.
What do the students think Angelique, a student from Singapore, went for a boat trip in the sea. “It helped me to grow stronger,” she says. The trip was stressful because it was stormy that day. There were moments (片刻) when she felt afraid and hopeless. But she remembered that “smooth seas never made a skilled sailor (水手)” and felt brave enough to continue against the storm. “I am thankful for this amazing chance,” she says.
Right now, students attend the courses with groups from their own school. After 2020, however, all students will do the course in groups from several different schools. Why does this matter Good communication skills are more important now than ever. Working closely with students from other backgrounds is a great way to learn this useful lesson.
One student said it this way, “There is nothing to be afraid of and nothing’s impossible.” And that’s a great lesson to learn.
28. What do we know about the outdoor-skills courses from Paragraph 1
A. They are similar to P.E.
B. They are usually one week long.
C. Students may get hurt in the courses.
29. According to Ng Chee Meng, the outdoor courses _______.
A. are less useful than reading
B. teach students necessary work and life skills
C. can help with students’ other subjects
30. The writer uses Angelique’s example to show _______.
A. why the courses are popular
B. what the courses are really like
C. what students think of the courses
31. What can be the best title of the passage
A. Outdoor classroom
B. Education in Singapore
C. Important outdoor skills
参考答案：
材料介绍了新加坡中小学生的户外技能课程。
28. C。本小题考查学生查找细节信息的能力。由第一段倒数第二句One careless mistake could make someone really get hurt. Are those outdoor skills really important 可知答案。
29. B。本小题考查学生查找细节信息的能力。由第二段第一句破折号后边的内容abilities that are necessary for work and life. He believes that these skills are as important as traditional subjects可知答案为B。
30. C。本小题考查学生推理判断的能力。第三段用一个问题What do the students think 开头，紧接着用学生Angelique的例子就是为了以实例来回答这个问题，即介绍学生对户外技能课程的体会，故选C。
31. A。本小题考查学生归纳文章标题的能力。材料首先介绍了户外技能课程的内容，然后分别从理论和实践上谈了户外技能课程的好处，最后谈了它的发展，主题都是围绕outdoor-skills courses，故A项作标题最能概括材料大意。

Are you scared of moving up to senior high school It can be a worrying experience, but you shouldn't worry about it. We've put together a guide on how to get through the first week.
You're not alone! 32 They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Moving up to senior high school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different. 33
Teachers are ready to help! If you are unsure of what to do or worrying about anything, then ask teachers for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they're experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student who will look out for you and help you.
Changes. There are many differences between junior high school and senior high school. 34 You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable so you know which rooms your classes will be in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points. If you've got an older brother or sister at school, then ask him or her for advice. Be yourself! 35 Also you must go to bed early and get up early to get ready for school.
A. It sounds simple, but people will know you better and get close to you if you act naturally.B. You will get surprisedC. All you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.D. So make sure you get organized.E. Remember everybody in your class is in the same boat.

第二节 （共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Sitting in my classroom I was watching my teacher. As she called the 46 （student）names, they went to receive their report cards. I watched their faces with envy (羡慕), remembering my poor result last year. Since then I had 47 （work）hard but I was not sure if I had made any progress.
I was so 48 （worry）that I didn’t hear my teacher call my name, and a nudge (轻推) from my friend startled (使吓一跳) me. I tried my best to keep 49 （I）cool and walked towards the teacher’s desk. The desk was only two meters away, but it seemed much 50 （far）to me.
Time seemed to stop. My heart was beating fast and my hands were 51 （shake） badly when I received my report card. My teacher was saying something, 52 I was so nervous that I couldn’t hear her.
Soon, thunderous applause (雷鸣般的掌声) brought me out of the darkness of my fears, and I heard my teacher say, “ 53 （wonder） job!”
When I opened my report card, I discovered an A+ on it. I couldn’t believe my eyes until I gave it a(n) 54 （two）look. Then all my fears disappeared. I felt like I was flying in the air. I heard birds singing. Perhaps, they were also 55 （congratulate）me on my success. I was so glad that my hard work paid off.
参考答案：
材料描述了作者在等待老师发成绩单时的忐忑心情以及看到自己成绩单上的好成绩时的激动之情。
46. students’。老师叫“学生们的”名字，他们去拿自己的成绩单。“学生”和“成绩单”之间为所属关系，并且report cards为复数，所以此处首先将student变为复数，然后再填其名词所有格形式。
47. worked。从那时起，“我”就努力“学习”，但是“我”并不确定自己有没有取得进步。空前有had，说明此处时态为过去完成时，该空应填work的过去分词形式。
48. worried。 “我”特别“担心”，连老师叫“我”名字都没有听到。根据空前的be动词was及副词so可知，该空应填worry的形容词形式。
49. my。 “我”尽力保持冷静，朝老师的桌子走去。keep one’s cool为固定搭配，意为“保持冷静”。
50. farther / further。老师的桌子只有两米远，但对“我”来说，似乎“远得多”。由于该空前有副词much，much被用来修饰比较级，所以此处填far的比较级形式。
51. shaking。当“我”拿到自己的成绩单时，“我”的心跳得很快，手也“抖”得厉害。“手”和“颤抖”是主动关系，并且根据My heart was beating以及空前的were可知，该处时态为过去进行时，故该空填shaking。
52. but。老师正在说着什么，“但是”“我”太紧张了，根本听不到她说什么。
53. wonderful。Wonderful job! 常常用来表达对某人的表扬和赞赏。Wonder变形容词wonderful修饰job
54. second。 “我”不敢相信自己的眼睛，又看了成绩单一眼。give sth. a second look意为“再看某物一眼”。
55. congratulating。或许它们也在“祝贺”“我”的成功。they指代的是上文中提到的birds，和“祝贺”是主动关系，由空前的were可知，此处应填congratulate的-ing形式。

Can you cook by yourself Do you like the homework of making a meal These days, primary and middle school students are required to take the Practical Activity Class (实践活动课) at least one class hour every week. The topic of cooking was discussed mostly by parents and students. Learning practical skills plays an important role in shaping a person’s character for sure.
Some schools and students have already practiced their practical activities. Gu Quan, 13 years old, from No.18 Middle School, used to be a lazy boy. In his own words, he hardly ever did any housework. But things have changed since No.18 Middle School made housework part of its students’ homework. Doing the dishes, cooking and making the bed...

The tasks are common and simple in daily life, such as sweeping the floor, washing cups and cooking food. On holidays like Mother’s Day, students should prepare presents for their mothers. Huang Yixi, 14, has learned several life kills, including cooking. “I used to be afraid of fire.” she said. But she managed to overcome ear and complete her cooking tasks. At the same time, she also learned how tired her mother gets after doing housework every day.

参考答案：
Dear Mike,
I’m very happy to receive your e-mail. From it, I have learned that you are having trouble with deciding if you should tell a lie or tell the truth.
Yes, it’s not always bad to tell a lie. Sometimes it’s necessary for us to do so. For example, if you don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings by telling the truth, you can lie.
I have lied to my best friend before. Once, during an English test when she wanted to copy my paper, I told a lie. I said I hadn’t finished it. She got very angry and didn’t talk to me after the test. A few days later when I was going to have a talk with her, she said she had realized what she did wrong. She said sorry to me. We became friends again.
I hope my advice helps you. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
