1．—The Three-Body Problem is the best book I have ever read.
—I agree. I ________ it several times.
A．read B．am reading C．have read D．will read
【答案】C
【详解】句意：——《三体》是我读过的最好的书。——我同意。我已经读了好几遍了。
根据题干“several times”表示过去的经历，强调读过的次数，应用现在完成时，应填have read。
2．My father ________ to Shanghai. He will be back in three days.
A．has been B．has gone C．goes D．went
【答案】B
【详解】句意：我的父亲去上海了。他将在三天后回来。
has been去过；has gone去了；goes去；went去。根据“He will be back in three days.”可知，父亲现在还没回来，所以是“去了上海”，应用现在完成时have/has gone to结构。主语My father 是第三人称单数，助动词用 has。
3．My brother ________ to Xiamen for a meeting. He will be back in a week.
A．has been B．has gone C．went D．goes
【答案】B
【详解】句意：我哥哥去厦门开会了。他一周后回来。
has been去过 (现在完成时，已返回)；has gone去 (现在完成时，未返回)；went去了(一般过去时)；goes去(一般现在时)。根据“He will be back in a week.” (他一周后回来。)可知，哥哥去了厦门还未回来，用has gone。
4．—I don’t know ________ when we are in trouble at school.
— Our teachers and friends are always the first choice.
A．how can I face them B．who to talk about
C．who to ask for help D．what I can do

【详解】句意：——我不知道在学校遇到麻烦时该向谁求助。——我们的老师和朋友总是首选。
how can I face them我该如何面对他们（语序错误）；who to talk about该和谁谈论；who to ask for help向谁求助；what I can do我能做什么。know后接宾语，可用“疑问词 + 不定式”结构。根据答语“Our teachers and friends”可知，问句询问的是求助的对象，应用who引导。A项语序错误，宾语从句应用陈述语序；B项语义不符；D项询问做什么，与答语指人不符。C项结构正确且符合语境。
5．—In our class, students often help ________ with homework and share snacks. That’s why we’re like a big family.

other其他的；one another互相；the other另一个；another另一个。根据“students often help...with homework”及语境可知，此处指学生们之间“互相”帮助，help one another为固定搭配，意为“互相帮助”，应填one another。
6．He lost a lot of ________ in the accident. We need to send him to the hospital.
A．blood B．confidence C．life D．abilities
【答案】A
【详解】句意：他在事故中失去了很多血。我们需要把他送到医院。
blood血；confidence信心；life生命；abilities能力。根据后句“We need to send him to the hospital”可知，前句描述的是需要紧急医疗救助的情况。事故中大量失血是送医院的常见原因。故填blood。
7．The old bridge ________ in 1990, but it is still strong and beautiful.
A．built B．was built C．has built D．has been built
【答案】B
【详解】句意：这座旧桥建于1990年，但它仍然坚固且美丽。
主语“The old bridge”与动词“build”之间是被动关系，需用被动语态；时间状语“in 1990”表示过去的具体时间，需用一般过去时，因此应用一般过去时的被动语态结构（was/were + 过去分词）。应填was built。
8．We need ________ to make machines work.
A．desertification B．electricity C．seabird D．wind
【答案】B
【详解】句意：我们需要电来使机器运转。
desertification沙漠化；electricity电；seabird海鸟；wind风。根据“to make machines work”可知，机器运转需要能源，电是使机器运转的常见能源。应填electricity。
9．The disabled boy shows great ________ when he faces difficulties in daily life.
A．influence B．competition C．ability D．courage
【答案】D
【详解】句意：这个残疾男孩在面对日常生活中的困难时表现出了极大的勇气。
influence影响；competition竞争；ability能力；courage勇气。根据语境“面对困难时表现出的品质”，courage最符合句意。

A．small enough B．big enough C．too small D．too big
【答案】B
【详解】句意：看！我们的新大厅足够大，能容纳一千八百人。它是旧大厅的三倍大。
small enough足够小；big enough足够大；too small太小；too big太大。enough修饰形容词时需要放在形容词之后，结构为“adj.+enough+to do sth.”表示肯定意义，意为“足够……去做某事”；“too+adj.+to do sth.”表示否定意义，意为“太……而不能……”。根据后句“It is three times bigger than the old one.”可知新大厅很大，且语境表明能容纳一千八百人，说明新大厅“足够大”，故填big enough。

Last month, these students started a project called “Care & Share”. Their main goal was to help the homeless people living near the city park. At first, they collected old clothes, blankets, and food from their neighbors and classmates. Within two weeks, they gathered over 300 items!
But they didn’t stop there. On weekends, the team went to the park to hand out these supplies. During their visits, they noticed that many homeless people looked sad and lonely. So, the students decided to do more than just give things. They began to sit down and chat with them, listening to their stories. They learned that some of these people used to be teachers, workers, or even artists.
One student, Li Meng, said, “I used to be afraid of talking to strangers. But now, I feel happy when I see a smile on their faces. It makes me realize that everyone needs care, no matter who they are.”

Useful Shared Stations in Our City
If you walk on the streets of our city in 2026, you will find many new small stations on the sidewalks. 41 They are called “city shared stations” and they bring great convenience to people’s daily life.
42 First, they have free drinking water and disposable cups for passers-by. Second, there are charging ports for mobile phones—both wired and wireless. Third, you can find raincoats, umbrellas and small first-aid kits here for free use.
Last Saturday, I went out to play with my friend. It suddenly rained heavily and we had no umbrella. 43 We used the raincoats from the station and didn’t get wet at all. We were so thankful for this great design.
The shared stations are not only for passers-by, but also for delivery workers and cleaners. They work outside all day and often need a place to rest. 44 Some stations even have small benches and shade covers for them.
These small shared stations are like little warm lights in the city. 45 It shows that our city is becoming more and more caring and people-oriented.

【导语】本文主要介绍了城市共享服务站的外观、功能与意义，通过举例说明其为路人、快递员、清洁工等群体带来的便利，展现了城市的人文关怀。
41．前文提到“2026年走在城市街道上，会看到人行道上很多新的小站点”，后文引出“它们被称为‘城市共享服务站’”并说明其带来便利。此处需要一个过渡句描述站点的特点，衔接上下文。D项“They are not big, but they have a lot of useful things.”既承接了前文“small stations”的描述，又引出后文对功能的介绍，逻辑连贯。
42．后文以“First...Second...Third...”列举了三项免费服务，此处需要一个总起句引出下文的分类说明。B项“Each shared station has three main free services.”作为总起句，能自然衔接后文的分点介绍，结构清晰。
43．前文提到“突然下起大雨，我们没带伞”，后文说“我们用了服务站的雨衣，一点也没淋湿”。此处需要描述当时的困境，衔接前后情节。A项“We were worried and didn’t know what to do.”既对应了前文的突发状况，又引出后文服务站的帮助，符合叙事逻辑。
44． 前文提到“服务站也为快递员和清洁工服务，他们整天在户外工作，常需要休息的地方”，后文补充“有些站点甚至有长椅和遮阳棚”。此处需要说明服务站如何解决他们的需求，C项“The shared stations solve their big problem perfectly.”承接前文的“需要休息的地方”，引出后文的具体设施，逻辑通顺。
45．前文将共享服务站比作“城市里温暖的小灯”，后文提到“这表明城市正变得越来越有人文关怀”。此处需要总结服务站的意义，衔接前后情感与主旨。F项“They bring warmth and convenience to everyone in the city.”既呼应了前文“warm lights”的比喻，又点明了服务站的价值，与后文的主旨句衔接自然。
四、根据句意及所给中文提示、首字母或英文解释，写出句中所缺单词，每空限填一词。（共8小题；每小题1分，满分8分）

【答案】avoid
【详解】句意：你应该避免再次犯同样的错误。avoid“避免”是动词，情态动词should后接动词原形。
47．The town has an interesting ________ (结合) of old buildings and new shops.
【答案】mix
【详解】句意：这个城镇的老建筑和新商店有趣地结合在一起。此处“结合”是名词，对应英文为mix，前面有不定冠词an，所以用单数。
48．________ (尽管) it was raining heavily, they still went to watch the sunrise.
【答案】Although/although
【详解】句意：尽管雨下得很大，他们仍然去看日出。此处需要连词引导让步状语从句，表达“尽管”的含义，应用单词Although，故填Although。
49．When you go ________ (到国外), you should learn to respect the local traditions.
【答案】abroad
【详解】句意：当你出国时，应当学会尊重当地习俗。根据汉语提示，abroad“到国外”，地点副词。
50．The box is too heavy for me ________ (carry) upstairs.
【答案】to carry
【详解】句意：这个箱子太重了，我搬不上楼。根据空格前“too heavy”可知，此处考查结构too+adj.+for sb.+to do sth.“对某人来说太……以至于不能做某事”。应填to carry。

If you love reading books, you must know something about the book The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. The book is very successful. And it is popular among kids at home 54 abroad. Even if I am an adult now, I’m still a fan of this book. I 55 (read) the book for many times. After re-reading the book 56 (recent), I have learned an important lesson 57 Tom Sawyer.
In our daily lives, we are often given some boring or 58 (tire) tasks. Have you ever wanted to complain (抱怨) I think most people have. Tom Sawyer, however, had a different thought when he was given a boring task. One day, Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence (篱笆). Tom 59 (do) his job when his friend Ben Rogers happened to pass by. Instead of complaining, Tom introduced the task and said that he felt “excited” about it. “Only one in 60 thousand — maybe even two thousand — boys can do this!” Tom said.
Tom’s words made Ben become interested in the task. He even 61 (give) Tom his apple so that he could have a chance 62 (paint) the fence. If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining, he would have had a bad day painting the fence.
This story teaches me a valuable lesson: Complaining is 63 (use).
【答案】
54．and 55．have read 56．recently 57．from 58．tiring 59．was doing 60．a 61．gave 62．to paint 63．useless
【导语】本文主要介绍了马克·吐温的《汤姆·索亚历险记》是一本成功的书籍，深受国内外儿童喜爱。作者重读此书后，从汤姆·索亚身上学到抱怨是无用的，换个心态做事更有智慧。
54．句意：这本书在国内外的孩子中都很受欢迎。at home and abroad意为 “国内外”，用并列连词 and 连接。
55．句意：我已经读过这本书很多次了。时间状语for many times表示动作从过去持续到现在，用现在完成时；主语为I，故填have read。
56．句意：最近重读这本书后，我从汤姆 索亚身上学到了重要的一课。此处修饰动词re-reading，需用副词形式，recent的副词是recently。
57．句意：我从汤姆 索亚身上学到了重要的一课。learn a lesson from sb.意为 “从某人身上学到道理”，故填介词from。
58．句意：在日常生活中，我们经常被分配一些无聊又累人的任务。修饰名词tasks (事物) ，用-ing结尾的形容词tiring，意为 “累人的、令人疲惫的”。
59．句意：汤姆正在干活，这时他的朋友本 罗杰斯碰巧路过。sb. was doing sth. when…是固定句型，意为 “某人正在做某事，这时……”，表示过去某个时刻正在进行的动作，主语为Tom，故填was doing。
60．句意：一千个男孩里—— 至两千个里——只有一个能做这件事！one in a thousand “千分之一、极少数”，thousand以辅音音素开头，故填不定冠词a。
61．句意：他甚至把自己的苹果给了汤姆，这样他就有机会刷篱笆。全文讲述过去的故事，用一般过去时，give的过去式是gave。
62．句意：他甚至把自己的苹果给了汤姆，这样他就有机会刷篱笆。have a chance to do sth.是固定搭配，意为 “有机会做某事”，故填to paint。
63．句意：抱怨是没用的。根据全文主旨 “抱怨无用”，需用use的形容词否定形式useless“无用的”。
六、任务型阅读（共3小题，满分7分）
请认真阅读短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。
A charity in the UK is asking people not to cut down the grass in their garden. When spring arrives, many gardeners mow (修剪) their lawns. The activity is part of a project called “No Mow May”. It helps flowers grow wild and insects breed. The purpose of No Mow May is to keep nature in balance. It is from the charity Plantlife. The charity is also asking people to count the types and number of wild flowers in their garden. Plantlife considers that leaving the grass uncut creates habitats (栖息地) which will help “bees, butterflies, wildlife and us”. Bees are a basic part of nature as they pollinate flowers. Cutting the grass means there are fewer flowers for bees and other insects to live on.
A spokesperson for Plantlife said garden lawns have the possibilities to be “biodiversity hot spots”. Last year, the charity found over 250 kinds of plants on people’s lawns. These included wild strawberries and wild eggplants. Plantlife wants people to value wild lawns more. It said people would get a nice, colorful surprise if they did not cut their grass. One gardener spoke to the BBC about the joy of wild gardens. He said people care too much about having a clean garden and use too much compost. He believes not mowing the lawn lets people reconnect with the natural world. Plantlife agreed. It said a wild garden makes you have more fun in your own garden.
64．What is the purpose of No Mow May (不超过10个词)
65．What does cutting the grass in your garden mean (不超过20个词)
66．What would you get if you don’t cut the grass in your garden (不超过15个词)
【答案】64．To keep the nature in balance. 65．It means fewer flowers for insects to live on. 66．A nice, colorful surprise.
【导语】本文介绍了英国慈善机构 Plantlife 发起的“五月不剪草” 公益活动，倡导人们保留花园野草，为昆虫提供生存环境，维护自然平衡，同时让人们重新感受自然乐趣。
64． 根据第一段中 “The purpose of No Mow May is to keep the nature in balance.” 可知“to keep the nature in balance”符合题意。
65． 根据第一段中“Cutting the grass means there are fewer flowers for bees and other insects to live on.”可知“…means there are fewer flowers for bees and other insects to live on”。根据“不超过20个词”的题目要求，把“bees and other insects”概括为“insects”。
66．.根据第二段中 “It said people would get a nice, colorful surprise if they did not cut their grass.” 可知“a nice, colorful surprise”符合题意。

Last month, these students started a project called “Care & Share”. Their main goal was to help the homeless people living near the city park. At first, they collected old clothes, blankets, and food from their neighbors and classmates. Within two weeks, they gathered over 300 items!
But they didn’t stop there. On weekends, the team went to the park to hand out these supplies. During their visits, they noticed that many homeless people looked sad and lonely. So, the students decided to do more than just give things. They began to sit down and chat with them, listening to their stories. They learned that some of these people used to be teachers, workers, or even artists.
One student, Li Meng, said, “I used to be afraid of talking to strangers. But now, I feel happy when I see a smile on their faces. It makes me realize that everyone needs care, no matter who they are.”
The project not only helped the homeless but also changed the students themselves. They became more confident and responsible. Now, more students in the school want to join the project. They believe that small acts of kindness can truly make the world a better place.
