I waved goodbye to my senior high school life just six months ago and now I am a college freshman. However, my memory of high school life is so fresh that I feel as if it were only yesterday.
My senior high school is called Yantai No. 1 Middle School with a long history, which can date back to 1931. When I recall my memorable high school life, I feel blissful and impressed.
To be honest, my senior high school life was very tiring but I really enjoyed it. I was asked to put study in the first place all the time by both my parents and my teachers. At that time, I got up at 5:30 a.m. and went to bed late in order to have more study time to review what I had learned in the day. In addition to study, I also took part in some activities like English speech contests, calligraphy competitions and so on.
Our class was like a big family. I got along well with my classmates. We always discussed issues of all kinds after class. I made many friends in the family and we still keep in touch with each other after we graduated. Luckily, my teachers were also very enthusiastic and friendly. We were seen as their children. They not only taught us knowledge but told us how to do better.
What’s more, dormitory life is also worth mentioning. Living far away from my home, I became quite independent by the end of the first semester at senior high. My roommates and I worked as a team to do some cleaning every day. We had a good time living as a family together, and my social skills were gradually improved.
This is my high school life, busy but fulfilling. I will never forget it.

6. Which of the following is NOT the benefit of the author’s dormitory life

At that time, I got up at 5:30 a.m. and went to bed late in order to have more study time to review what I had learned in the day. In addition to study, I also took part in some activities like English speech contests, calligraphy competitions and so on.(我的父母和老师一直要求我把学习放在第一位。在那个时候，我早上5:30起床，很晚才睡觉，以便有更多的学习时间来复习我在一天中学到的东西。除了学习，我还参加了一些活动，如英语演讲比赛，书法比赛等。)”可知，作者一直将学习放在第一位，每天五点半起床，很晚才睡，除了学习还要参加英语演讲比赛、书法比赛等活动，说明作者在高中是一个很勤奋的学生。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“What’s more, dormitory life is also worth mentioning. Living far away from my home, I became quite independent by the end of the first semester at senior high. My roommates and I worked as a team to do some cleaning every day. We had a good time living as a family together, and my social skills were gradually improved.(更重要的是，宿舍生活也值得一提。由于住在离家很远的地方，我在高中第一学期结束时变得相当独立。我的室友和我作为一个团队每天做一些清洁。我们如同家人一样，在一起生活得很愉快，我的社交能力也逐渐提高了。)”可知，宿舍生活让作者变得独立，团队协作和社交能力也提高了，而住得离家远不是宿舍生活带来的好处。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I waved goodbye to my senior high school life just six months ago and now I am a college freshman. However, my memory of high school life is so fresh that I feel as if it were only yesterday.(就在六个月前，我告别了高中生活，现在我是一名大学新生。然而，我的高中生活的记忆是如此的新鲜，我觉得好像就在昨天。)”以及全文内容可知，本文作者是一名大学生，在介绍自己刚刚过去的高三生活，文章最有可能出现在一个大学作文网站上。故选C项。
C
When we talk about English, we often think of it as a single language but like most languages, English has evolved through years of speakers, going through major changes overtime. By looking at these changes, we can have a deeper understanding of the language, from the present day back to its ancient roots.
While modern English shares many similar words with romance languages(罗曼斯语), like French and Spanish, most of those words were not originally part of it. Instead, they started coming into the language with the Norman invasion of England in 1066. When the French-speaking Normans conquered(征服) England and became its ruling class, they brought their speech with them, adding a large number of French and Latin words to the English language formerly spoken there. The English used in Beowulf(《贝奥武夫》) probably doesn’t look very familiar, but it might be more recognizable if you know some German. That’s because Old English belongs to the Germanic language family, first brought to the British Isles(不列颠群岛) in the 5th and 6th centuries by the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. The language they spoke would become known as Anglo-Saxon. Viking invaders(维京侵略者) in the 8th to 11th centuries added more borrowings from Old Norse(古斯堪的那维亚语) into the mix.
It may be hard to see the roots of modern English underneath all the words borrowed from French, Latin, Old Norse and other languages. But the amazing fact is that nearly 3 billion people around the world, many of whom cannot understand each other, are speaking the same words shaped by 6000 years of history.
8. What’s the passage mainly about
A. The introduction of modem English. B. The study of Old English.H1x
C. The origin of modern English. D. The discussion of the usage of English words.
9. Why does English share many similar words with French
A. The words were part of English at first and then were borrowed into French.
B. The Normans brought those, words to the English language.
C. The words were brought to the British Isles in the 5th and 6th centuries.
D. Viking invaders added those words to English.
10. What do the underlined words “has evolved” probably mean
A. has been passed down B. has been invented
C. has gradually developed D. has changed completely
11. Which of the following is correct according to the passage
A. English is a single language. B. English has its only root in romance languages.
C. English is actually a mixture of several languages. D. There are 3 billion English speakers in the world.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代英语的起源和演变过程。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“When we talk about English, we often think of it as a single language but like most languages, English has evolved through years of speakers, going through major changes overtime. By looking at these changes, we can have a deeper understanding of the language, from the present day back to its ancient roots.(当我们谈论英语时，我们通常认为它是一门单一的语言，但像大多数语言一样，英语是经过多年的使用者发展而来的，经历了不断的重大变化。通过观察这些变化，我们可以更深入地了解这门语言，从现在追溯到它的古老根源)”可知，这篇文章主要讲了现代英语的起源。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When the French-speaking Normans conquered(征服) England and became its ruling class, they brought their speech with them, adding a large number of French and Latin words to the English language formerly spoken there.(当讲法语的诺曼人征服英国并成为其统治阶级时，他们把自己的语言也带来了，给那里以前使用的英语增加了大量的法语和拉丁语单词)”可知，英语和法语有很多相似的单词是因为诺曼人把这些单词带进了英语。故选B。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“By looking at these changes, we can have a deeper understanding of the language, from the present day back to its ancient roots.(通过观察这些变化，我们可以更深入地了解这门语言，从现在追溯到它的古老根源)”以及划线词后文“through years of speakers, going through major changes overtime”可知，英语经历了不断的重大变化，即英语是经过多年的使用逐渐发展而来的，故划线词意思是“逐渐发展”。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When the French-speaking Normans conquered(征服) England and became its ruling class, they brought their speech with them, adding a large number of French and Latin words to the English language formerly spoken there.(当讲法语的诺曼人征服英国并成为其统治阶级时，他们把自己的语言也带来了，给那里以前使用的英语增加了大量的法语和拉丁语单词)”以及“Viking invaders(维京侵略者) in the 8th to 11th centuries added more borrowings from Old Norse(古斯堪的那维亚语) into the mix.(8世纪到11世纪的维京入侵者从古斯堪的纳维亚语中借用了更多的词汇)”可知，C选项“英语实际上是几种语言的混合体”正确。故选C。
D
The arts, especially music, should be part of every school’s lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.
Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music programme, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children’s music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.
Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practise performing in front of the audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.
Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music lessons should be offered in every single grade in every school.
12. According to the passage, music could make students smarter by________.
A. improving their classroom skills and paying attention
B. improving their classroom skills and imagination
C. improving their attention and imagination
D. letting them make music and try out their own ideas
13. What does the underlined phrase “glued to” in the second paragraph mean
A. Unwilling to turn on.
B. Always looking at.
C. Unwilling to move.
D. Always playing with.
14. The third paragraph mainly tells us that music could________.
A. make children express themselves
B. bring children success
C. give children something to be proud of
D. develop children’s self-confidence
15. What’s the best title of this passage
A. Music Is a Must as a Course at School
B. Music Builds Children’s Self-confidence
C. Music Makes Students Much Smarter
D. Learning Music and Making Music Build Children’s Character
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要叙述音乐对孩子的发展的很多好处，建议在学校里要把音乐当成一门学科对孩子进行教育。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions.(如果学生有一些音乐经验，他们会聪明得多。他们可以提高课堂技能，比如集中注意力和听从指示)”和“Making music also lets children use their imagination.(创作音乐也让孩子们发挥他们的想象力)”可知，音乐可以提高学生的课堂技能和想象力，使他们更聪明。故选B。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线短语上文“Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do.(音乐不仅使孩子成为更好的学生，而且给他们一些积极的事情做)”及常识可知，音乐能够让孩子们做一些积极的事情，而不是目不转睛地盯着电脑或电视屏幕。由此推知，划线短语glued to与unwilling to move(不愿移动)意思接近。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中心句“Music builds self-confidence, too.(音乐也能建立自信)”可知，第三段主要告诉我们音乐可以培养孩子的自信心。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“The arts, especially music, should be part of every school’s lessons at every grade level.(艺术，尤其是音乐，应该成为每个学校各个年级课程的一部分)”和文章最后一句“That is why music lessons should be offered in every single grade in every school.(这就是为什么每个学校的每个年级都应该开设音乐课)”可知，作者建议所有学校的所有年级都开设音乐课程。由此可知，Music Is a Must as a Course at School(音乐是学校的必修课)适合作本文最佳标题。故选A。

Dear Peter,
Learning that you are having a hard time learning Chinese, I’m writing...
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Peter,
Learning that you are having a hard time learning Chinese, I’m writing to offer some suggestions.
To begin with, don’t worry too much about it and trust yourself. As we know, Chinese is one of the most complex languages in the world, so it’s normal for learners to find it difficult in the beginning. What’s more, you are supposed to take every opportunity to practise speaking Chinese. A proverb goes that practice makes perfect. Besides, read books and watch TV programs in Chinese and make friends with Chinese native speakers, which provide you more chances to use Chinese.
If you follow my advice, I am sure you will find pleasure in learning Chinese.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

I waved goodbye to my senior high school life just six months ago and now I am a college freshman. However, my memory of high school life is so fresh that I feel as if it were only yesterday.
My senior high school is called Yantai No. 1 Middle School with a long history, which can date back to 1931. When I recall my memorable high school life, I feel blissful and impressed.
To be honest, my senior high school life was very tiring but I really enjoyed it. I was asked to put study in the first place all the time by both my parents and my teachers. At that time, I got up at 5:30 a.m. and went to bed late in order to have more study time to review what I had learned in the day. In addition to study, I also took part in some activities like English speech contests, calligraphy competitions and so on.
Our class was like a big family. I got along well with my classmates. We always discussed issues of all kinds after class. I made many friends in the family and we still keep in touch with each other after we graduated. Luckily, my teachers were also very enthusiastic and friendly. We were seen as their children. They not only taught us knowledge but told us how to do better.
What’s more, dormitory life is also worth mentioning. Living far away from my home, I became quite independent by the end of the first semester at senior high. My roommates and I worked as a team to do some cleaning every day. We had a good time living as a family together, and my social skills were gradually improved.
This is my high school life, busy but fulfilling. I will never forget it.

When we talk about English, we often think of it as a single language but like most languages, English has evolved through years of speakers, going through major changes overtime. By looking at these changes, we can have a deeper understanding of the language, from the present day back to its ancient roots.
While modern English shares many similar words with romance languages(罗曼斯语), like French and Spanish, most of those words were not originally part of it. Instead, they started coming into the language with the Norman invasion of England in 1066. When the French-speaking Normans conquered(征服) England and became its ruling class, they brought their speech with them, adding a large number of French and Latin words to the English language formerly spoken there. The English used in Beowulf(《贝奥武夫》) probably doesn’t look very familiar, but it might be more recognizable if you know some German. That’s because Old English belongs to the Germanic language family, first brought to the British Isles(不列颠群岛) in the 5th and 6th centuries by the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. The language they spoke would become known as Anglo-Saxon. Viking invaders(维京侵略者) in the 8th to 11th centuries added more borrowings from Old Norse(古斯堪的那维亚语) into the mix.
It may be hard to see the roots of modern English underneath all the words borrowed from French, Latin, Old Norse and other languages. But the amazing fact is that nearly 3 billion people around the world, many of whom cannot understand each other, are speaking the same words shaped by 6000 years of history.
8. What’s the passage mainly about
A. The introduction of modem English. B. The study of Old English.H1x
C. The origin of modern English. D. The discussion of the usage of English words.
9. Why does English share many similar words with French
A. The words were part of English at first and then were borrowed into French.
B. The Normans brought those, words to the English language.
C. The words were brought to the British Isles in the 5th and 6th centuries.
D. Viking invaders added those words to English.
10. What do the underlined words “has evolved” probably mean
A. has been passed down B. has been invented
C has gradually developed D. has changed completely
11. Which of the following is correct according to the passage
A. English is a single language. B. English has its only root in romance languages.
C. English is actually a mixture of several languages. D. There are 3 billion English speakers in the world.
D
The arts, especially music, should be part of every school’s lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.
Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music programme, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children’s music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.
Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practise performing in front of the audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.
Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music lessons should be offered in every single grade in every school.
12. According to the passage, music could make students smarter by________.
A. improving their classroom skills and paying attention
B. improving their classroom skills and imagination
C. improving their attention and imagination
D. letting them make music and try out their own ideas
13. What does the underlined phrase “glued to” in the second paragraph mean
A. Unwilling to turn on.
B. Always looking at.
C. Unwilling to move.
D. Always playing with.
14. The third paragraph mainly tells us that music could________.
A. make children express themselves
B. bring children success
C. give children something to be proud of
D. develop children’s self-confidence
15. What’s the best title of this passage
A. Music Is a Must as a Course at School
B. Music Builds Children’s Self-confidence
C. Music Makes Students Much Smarter
D. Learning Music and Making Music Build Children’s Character
