三、阅读理解
Once upon a time, there was a young farmer who planted an area of rice. After he planted the seedlings(幼苗), every day he went to the field to watch the seedlings grow. He hoped the plants would grow fast because he wanted to have a great harvest(丰收) soon. But one month later, he only saw the young shoots(嫩芽) break through the earth and after that, they grew a little taller each day, but still, he thought they were growing too slowly and got anxious with the young plants. His neighbors knew his trouble and told him the plants would grow according to their growth rules. But the young man didn’t think so. Then one morning he came up with a fantastic idea—one by one, he pulled up the young plants by half an inch(英寸). He did the work from half past seven in the morning till eight at night, feeling tired but happy. The next early morning, the young man couldn’t wait to check his “great work”, but when he saw the plants, he cried his heart out.

答案以及解析
一、单选题
1.答案：B
解析：句意：—你什么时候去看医生的？—上周末。考查动词时态。根据“Last weekend.”可知，句子是一般过去时，所以疑问句的助动词用did。故选B。
2.答案：A
解析：句意：这位作家昨天晚上遇到了一位电台经理。考查冠词用法。a一个，用于以辅音音素开头的单词；an一个，用于以元音音素开头的单词；/指不填。根据“...met...radio manager last night.”可知，空处表泛指，需不定冠词，radio是以辅音音素开头的单词，需冠词a。故选A。
3.答案：A
解析：句意：我不知道要不要去看电影。考查宾语从句引导词。whether是否；why为什么；that无意义，其连接作用。根据“...or not”可知，需whether来引导宾语从句。whether or not意为“是……还是不……”，为固定搭配。故选A。
4.答案：B
解析：考查固定短语辨析。句意：昨天弗兰克和朋友们在海滩打排球非常愉快。 have fun doing sth做某事非常快乐。结合句意，可知选B。
5.答案：A
解析：考查连词辨析。句意：尽管他尽了最大努力，但是他没有赢得比赛。but但是，连接表转折关系的并列分句；though尽管，引导让步状语从句，though和but不能在同一个句子中使用。结合句意可知选A。

13.答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据"He hoped the plants would grow fast because he wanted to have a great harvest (丰收)soon."(他希望这些植物长得快，因为他想很快获得大丰收。)可知，因为他想很快就有大丰收，故选C。
