The first week of September was a week that I had been expecting all summer. I didn’t want summer to end. But I was excited about going to high school for my first week.
When I got to school in the morning on the first day I realized how large the school was, and how many students went there. I ended up in the wrong classroom because of the size of the school. Luckily, a kind senior showed up and guided me to my homeroom before I was late. I was happy to see that in a class of unfamiliar (不熟悉的) faces, the only open seat was next to my good friend, Casey. My science teacher seemed like a good teacher. She was exciting and fun.
After finishing four periods without too much of a challenge, I didn’t feel too bad about ninth grade.
However, the fifth period changed everything. I didn’t feel ready after all. My teacher’s name is Mr. Valassidis but he told us to call him Mr. V. Mr V told us that we would have to write 40 essays (文章) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. I love reading and writing, but come on, 40 ESSAYS AP-level books Now I was afraid.
The courses in high school seem like they’re going to get much harder, but they haven’t yet. Even though my classes look hard, they look really exciting too.
The first week passed quickly. Although a lot of things left me at a loss: the size of the campus, the crowds (人群) and the seniors, having a totally different experience than I had ever had before was really exciting. Now, I’m really happy about high school. I have lots of friends in my classes, I really like my teachers and I’m glad to meet new people.

I worked in a small company with about thirty-five employees (雇员). We had a good-sized kitchen with a fridge that several employees used. But people would often go to the fridge to surprisingly find either their whole lunch missing, or in my case, my can of Cherry Coke gone. I usually kept it in my lunch bag. At times when I bought takeaway food, I would get two—one for lunch and one for dinner—so I didn’t have my lunch bag. Even so, I often couldn’t find the food. It was a shock to everyone.
We doubted who was stealing, but could never prove (证明) it. One day, a good idea came to my mind, and I couldn’t wait to try it.
It was break time at noon. I headed down to the kitchen about five minutes early and gave my Coke such a hard shake that I feared it may actually go off in my hands. I placed it back in the fridge. Then, I hid into a cupboard in the kitchen, waiting for the right moment.
BINGO! A lady came in and took the Coke. I put my hand over my mouth for her to open it, but she took it with her and left. I thought she would open it in the hall. No!
As I left the kitchen, I heard her yell (叫喊). I passed her office, and Coke was everywhere: the walls, the floor, all over her desk, computer, her work, and all over her—everywhere!
Well, food has never gone missing again since then because the lady got fired.
13. Why did the employees feel surprised
A. Their lunch was often lost.
B. The fridge was full of free food.
C. The kitchen was never clean.
D. The company was small-sized.
14. Why did the author hide in the kitchen
A. To play a joke on the lady.
B. To carry out some repairs inside.
C. To find out who was stealing.
D. To prove who was the best worker.
15. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to

Have a chat in the lap pool, join a swimming club or get involved in social water sports to get to know people in your community. Besides, the great thing about swimming is that you can do it — rain or shine. Although your backyard pool, the river or beach cools down over winter, most inside swimming pools run heated pools year round, so you’ve got no excuse to stop swimming.
A Benefit your body.
B. Meet new people.
C. These chemicals can control your thought and action.
D. Swimming also works your abs (腹肌) and will reduce your waist line.

Swimming also works your abs (腹肌)and will reduce your waist line.(游泳也能锻炼你的腹肌，还能缩小你的腰围)补充说明了游泳还能锻炼腹肌，缩小腰围，承接上文；下一句“So along with building fitness, it is a wonderful full body exercise.(所以除了健身，它还是一种很好的全身锻炼)”对游泳的锻炼功效给出了总结，语意衔接合理。故选D。

【38题详解】

【45题详解】
考查强调句。句意：是她的努力带来了她的成功。去掉It is和空处，本句结构和意思均完整，所以这里是It is...that/who...强调句型。被强调部分是指物的主语her hard work，所以应用that。故填that。

第二节（满分 10 分）
48. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和段落开头续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。（注意： 至少写 5 句话）
One day, a hare(野兔) and a tortoise(乌龟) decided to have a race to see who was faster than the other. They agreed that the one who first got to the bid tree in the distance was the winner. So they started at the same time.
The hare thought, “My legs are much longer than the tortoise’s. I’m sure to be the winner.” Of course the tortoise was much slower than the hare, but he never gave up and kept moving forward as fast as he could.
As the hare ran a few kilometers, he found the tortoise far behind him.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 As the hare ran a few kilometers he found the tortoise far behind him. There was a long distance between the hare and the tortoise. The hare was confident that he would win the game easily even if he took a nap. Then the hare stopped and sat beside a tree to rest. At the same time, the tortoise insisted on crawling. When the hare woke up, he could only watch the tortoise nearly reach the destination ahead of him. No matter how fast he ran, he couldn’t make it. In the end, the tortoise won.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇寓言故事。野兔和乌龟比赛谁跑得快，兔子因为腿长，觉得自己肯定跑得比乌龟快，于是决定打个盹，结果一直不放弃的乌龟率先到了终点。
【详解】1. 续写线索：
根据续写首句“当兔子跑了几公里时，他发现乌龟远远地在他身后。”可知，本段可描写兔子有自信自己能赢得比赛，于是决定打个盹继续跑，而乌龟一直努力往前爬，最终乌龟赢得了比赛。
2. 段落续写：
兔子发现乌龟落在后面——兔子决定打个盹——乌龟一直坚持爬——兔子醒来后发现已经来不及赶上乌龟——乌龟赢得比赛
3. 词汇激活
对……有把握：feel confident that/be sure that
休息：rest/have a rest/break
同时：at the same time/in the meanwhile
坚持做：insist on/stick to
【点睛】【高分句型1】The hare was confident that he would win the game easily even if he took a nap.(使用了that引导宾语从句、even if引导让步状语从句)
【高分句型2】When the hare woke up, he could only watch the tortoise nearly reach the destination ahead of him. (使用了When引导时间状语从句、省略to的不定式作宾补)
