　　1．______ big fire broke out in my neighbor’s house last night，and it took the firefighters about an hour to put out ______ fire.

　　A．The；a B．A；the

　　C．The；the

　　D．A；a

　　解析：考查冠詞。第一個空泛指“一場火災”；而第二個空是特指上文已提及的火災，所以答案為B項。句意：昨夜我的鄰居家里發生了一場火災，消防員花了大概一個小時才將它撲滅。

　　答案：B

　　2．Ashley，______such cases，is sure instantly to come up with a brilliant idea.

　　A．experiencing

　　B．having experienced

　　C．to experience

　　D．experienced

　　解析：考查非謂語動詞作狀語的用法。由后半句的“一定能想出一個出色的辦法”可以看出，那個年輕人一定經歷過類似的情況。所以要用分詞的完成式，強調動作的結果。

　　答案：B

　　3．I wonder ______ of you is ______ such an accident.

　　A．who；to be blamed on

　　B．whom；blaming to

　　C．which；to blame for

　　4．He is said ______ by a famous university，for which he has worked hard for three years.

　　A．being admitted

　　B．to being admitted

　　C．to be admitted

　　—Then，where was I?

　　—Oh.You ______ you didn’t adapt to the way that the people lived there.

　　A．were saying

　　答案：A

　　6．I think he must have a dictionary you need，______ he?

　　A．mustn’t

　　B．doesn’t

　　C．don’t

　　D．hasn’t

　　解析：考查反意疑問句的構成。情態動詞表示推測時，其后的反義疑問句沒有表示過去的時間狀語時，由動詞決定，動詞have是行為動詞，由主語he可知用doesn’t。

　　答案：B

　　7．One of the requirements for a fire is that the material ______ to its burning temperature.

　　A．is heated

　　B．will be heated

　　C．be heated

　　D．could be heated

　　解析：考查虛擬語氣。that引導的從句作requirements的表語從句，因此要用虛擬語氣“(should)＋動詞原形”，should可以省略。

　　答案：C

　　8．We’ll continue to learn by ourselves when we have graduated.We must ______ learn how to study in the university now.

　　A．in all

　　B．after all

　　B．merely

　　C．barely

　　D．hardly

　　解析：考查副詞辨析。句意：在泥石流中受傷的那個男孩在醫院里得到了如此好的照顧以至于他幾乎不需要別人幫助就能下床了。nearly“幾乎”；can hardly和can barely都表示“幾乎不能”，表示否定，不合題意；merely“僅僅”。

　　答案：A

　　11．Is there a bookshop around ______ I can buy an EnglishChinese dictionary?

　　A．which

　　B．where

　　C．that

　　D．what

　　解析：where引導的是定語從句，修飾先行詞bookshop，around在此處是副詞“這附近”。

　　答案：B

　　12．In no country ______ Britain，as is often said，______ experience four seasons in a day.

　　A．rather than；can one

　　B．rather than；one can

　　C．other than；one can

　　A．If

　　—If your brother does，______.

　　A．so do I

　　B．so I do

　　C．so will I

　　答案：B

　　二、閱讀理解

　　A

　　Living organisms must feed so that they can grow and remain healthy，including the biggest organisms on Earth，plants.They need to feed but they do not feed in the same way as animals.They do not have a mouth or a digestive system and they do not move much to find or catch their food.

　　Plants are made of three things.Water is the most important part.Often more than 90% of the plant is made of water.If we dry a plant out by removing all of its water content，we can find out what is left over.Two things are found in the solid parts of plants：minerals and organic matter.We can separate these two parts if we burn the dried plant until only the ashes are left.If we analyze these ashes we find that they are made of the minerals that the plant needs to grow.The part that burns away is called organic matter.

　　It is true that plants need a lot of water to stay healthy and plants are mostly made of water.A pumpkin，for example，is 94% water.If we do not water plants they will wilt and eventually they will die.Most of the water we give to a plant does not stay in its body.The water passes through the plant and evaporates(蒸發)into the air.

　　Plants absorb most of their water through their roots.The roots of a plant can be very extensive(廣泛的)，as much as 50 kilometers of roots can be found in one square meter of soil.A single wheat plant has a total of 70 km of roots!

　　From the roots the water travels up the stem in very thin pipe，then moves towards the leaves.The water travelling through a plant with the things that the plant needs to grow is the blood of the plant.Eventually the water arrives in the leaf where it escapes into the air.

　　本文講述了水對植物的重要性。

　　1．From the first paragraph，we can know______.

　　A．plants can only move a little

　　B．plants do not need to feed

　　C．plants can not get minerals by themselves

　　D．plants are the most developed organisms on Earth

　　解析：細節理解題。根據第一段They do not have a mouth or a digestive system and they do not move much to find or catch their food可知，植物不能移動很多去尋找或是捕食它們的食物，即可以移動一點點。

　　答案：A

　　2．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?

　　A．What organic matter is.

　　B．Water is very important to a plant.

　　C．Why minerals exist in a plant.

　　D．What a plant is made of.

　　解析：段落大意題。第二段主要介紹了植物的三種成分：水、礦物質和有機物。

　　答案：D

　　3．What does the underlined word“wilt”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

　　A．Be cut off.

　　B．Be broken.

　　C．Dry out.

　　D．Turn red.

　　解析：詞義猜測題。根據上文It is true that plants need a lot of water to stay healthy and plants are mostly made of water可知，植物需要很多的水來保持健康，植物主要由水組成。再根據If we do not water plants they will...and eventually they will die可知，沒有水，植物將會枯萎，最終死亡。由此可推知，畫線詞含義為“枯萎，干枯”。

　　答案：C

　　B

　　Anaconda

　　This South American creature appears in films or your nightmares.They have weighed over 230 kilograms.It is often regarded as the biggest snake in the world.It is clearly a totally different brand of snake type as it coils(纏繞)all over its target，increasing the pressure until eventually its victim dies.Its jaws are powered by muscle tissue that produces enough power for its more than 100 sharp teeth to pass through the thick skin of a crocodile.They don’t have poison.Sometimes they prefer to camouflage themselves so that they look like their surroundings and swiftly draw back when someone approaches.

　　Poisonous Frog

　　The Golden Poison Frog is protected by means of a strong poison.This very small frog，less than 55 mm in length，has enough poison to take down a couple of African Bull Elephants.This frog has been known to be a killer of men and women who’ve touched it.It is also confirmed that dogs have died by contacting a tissue on which a Golden Poison Frog had wandered！While the Golden Poison Frog might be the most harmful South American animal，it also has poison frog neighborhood friends.In intense colors，they absolutely look appealing to capture and touch，but humans should stay far away from them.

　　Piranha

　　Despite the fact that only a small number of many kinds of piranhas are thought to be dangerous to humans，the red-bellied piranha is one of those.The myths show that a large group of piranhas can absolutely eat a herd of large animals crossing the river，leaving only bones.Piranhas live in the freshwater streams of South America，and they can smell blood from far away and launch attacks swiftly.It is reported that they are only dangerous to human beings if the water of the river becomes less or they are short of food.Take good care，though，in entering the waters.The piranha in reality is one of the most dangerous animals.

　　本文介紹了南美洲的三種最危險的動物。

　　5．What is special about the anaconda?

　　A．It kills its victim quickly with its poison.

　　B．It kills its victim with its strength.

　　C．It kills its victim with its sharp teeth.

　　D．It gets its victim trapped and frightens it.

　　解析：細節理解題。根據第一段．..it coils all over its target，increasing the pressure until eventually its victim dies可知，答案為B項。

　　答案：B

　　6．The underlined word“camouflage”in Paragraph 1 is the closest in meaning to“______”．

　　A．move about to find food

　　B．eat all kinds of animals

　　C．make loud noise to threaten others

　　D．hide itself by using the environment

　　解析：詞義猜測題。根據句中．..so that they look like their surroundings and swiftly draw back...可推斷，camouflage意為“偽裝”，故答案為D項。

　　答案：D

　　7．The author mentioned the death of the dogs in Paragraph 2 to show that______.

　　A．the poison of the Golden Poison Frog is deadly

　　B．it had nothing to do with the Golden Poison Frog

　　C．no animals can survive the poison of the Golden Poison Frog

　　D．animals should keep away from the Golden Poison Frog
