3、be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up！” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once！” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now s

4、ee that it's done properly, and be quick about it，” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you'll have to answer for it！”So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster ex

9、whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating is completely foreign to our nature.【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文為記敘文。文中作者回憶了早年讀書(shū)期間，假期返校清除落葉的一段經(jīng)歷。1The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that “_”Athe author

10、's hands were severely injured in the cleaning upBthe author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upCthe author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning upDthe author's hands were his only tool for the cleaning解析：作者一開(kāi)始用了兩個(gè)“remember”表明他對(duì)假期返校要清除落葉一事記憶深刻。第二段提到自己在為學(xué)校清除落葉時(shí)沒(méi)有別的工具，唯一的工具就是手，

11、由此可推斷“手和指尖都記得”是因?yàn)樵诖髵叱?，作者的手作為唯一的清潔工具受了不少的罪。答案：D2The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because_Ahe was too lazyBthere were many fallen leaves on the groundCthe school yard was covered with mudDthe students didn't finish their homework解析：第一

12、段最后一句提到假期過(guò)后學(xué)校會(huì)堆滿落葉，第二段校長(zhǎng)發(fā)布了讓學(xué)生大掃除的命令，兩者之間的因果關(guān)系顯而易見(jiàn)，因此本題應(yīng)選B項(xiàng)。答案：B3The headmaster asked the older boys to_Abeat those who worked slowlyBtreat the small boys as peanutsCtake charge of the process of the cleaningDdo the cleaning all by themselves解析： 第二段最后一句，特別是其中的“see”，表明校長(zhǎng)讓大孩子們做大掃除的“監(jiān)工”，負(fù)責(zé)帶領(lǐng)其他孩子們把學(xué)校打掃干

14、big boys解析：第三段第四句中的“.the coins changed hands at once.”可理解為“錢(qián)馬上就會(huì)易主”，即錢(qián)到了大孩子們的口袋里，由此可知選A項(xiàng)。答案：A5When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of _Aslight punishmentBharsh criticismCcomplete indifference Dgood beating解析：根據(jù)題干中的complaints可定位到最后一段開(kāi)頭兩句。該段第二句表明校長(zhǎng)對(duì)大孩子們的懲罰很輕，

15、因此本題應(yīng)選A項(xiàng)。答案：APassage 2The 30 miles of steep roads that snake through the mountains of Logan Canyon in Utah are enough to make most drivers' hands sweat. But Andersen, a 46yearold father of four, wasn't expecting any trouble on the road last New Year's Eve, when he set off for a ski trip

16、to the Bear River Mountains with nineyearold daughter Mia, fouryearold son Baylor, and nineyearold neighbour Kenya. Andersen had driven through the Canyon hundreds of times over the years. The weather was fine，but the higher they drove, the more slippery the roads became. Rounding a sharp Uturn at m

17、ile marker 473, Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and immediately tapped his brakes. In an instant, the car was sliding at 25 miles per hour towards the shoulder of the highway, then rolling down a steep tenfoot dam towards the extremely cold Logan River. As it hit the water, the car

18、 tipped towards the passenger side, hesitated, and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river. There was no time to tell the kids what to do. The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the upsidedown car was filled with water. “It was frightening how fast we were completely under

20、 couldn't find her. I thought，“If I don't get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That's when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the

21、dam. One after another, they raced down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout at the father, “Who else is in the car？” Andersen says respectfully, “It_was_like_the型sight of angels_(天使). ”【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文主要介紹了Andersen開(kāi)車(chē)帶三個(gè)孩子上盤(pán)山公路時(shí)遭遇車(chē)禍并死里逃生的故事。1What might be the main

27、 is helping them learn a lot about the planet's history and climate.Curiosity landed on Mars in August 2019 after travelling through space for more than eight months. It was sent to Mars by scientists from NASA in the United States.Curiosity is about the size of a car and has six wheels. It also

28、 has a robotic arm, cameras, and instruments that allow it to examine things it finds on the surface. Then it sends the information back to the earth.Curiosity's main task is to find out if anything could live on Mars, either now or in the past. On Nov. 2, NASA scientists held a press conference

29、 (新聞發(fā)布會(huì)) to discuss what Curiosity had found in its first two months on Mars.Curiosity has found soil that is similar to the sand formed by volcanoes (火山) on the earth. Scientists say that studying the minerals in Martian soil will help them understand what conditions were like on the planet in the

30、past. Curiosity also found smooth stones like the ones found on river beds and seashores on the earth, where their rough edges have been worn down by water. Mars is very cold and dry now, but scientists say the smooth stones tell them that a river used to run through the place where they were found.

31、Curiosity has been testing the atmosphere around Mars for a type of gas called methane (甲烷), but so far it has not found any. On the earth, most methane is produced by plants or animals. Methane on Mars might indicate that some type of tiny plants or animals lived there.Curiosity is the fourth robot

32、ic vehicle to be sent to Mars. It will continue to explore the planet for about two years.【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文是一篇新聞報(bào)道，主要講述了“好奇號(hào)”機(jī)器人探索火星的最新情況。1Which of the following descriptions about Curiosity is TRUE?AIt landed on Mars in January 2019.BIt is small in size and has four arms.CIt took over eight months to arrive

35、解析：根據(jù)第五段最后一句可知答案。答案：A4We know from the sixth paragraph that_Asome tiny animals once lived on MarsBthere are no plants or animals on Mars nowCthe atmosphere around Mars is full of methaneDCuriosity is designed to test the atmosphere around the earth解析：根據(jù)第六段可知，如果有甲烷，就表示火星上有植物或動(dòng)物存在的可能。但是“好奇號(hào)”到現(xiàn)在為止都沒(méi)有在火

36、星上找到甲烷，可見(jiàn)火星上至少現(xiàn)在是沒(méi)有植物或動(dòng)物的。答案：B5What is the main idea of the passage?AHumans benefit a lot by going to Mars.BScientists will stop the research on Mars soon.CIt is possible to build an earthlike environment on Mars.DA robotic vehicle helps scientists get useful information from Mars.解析：根據(jù)文章的第一段可知答案。答案
