A．a; the B．an; a C．the; the D．an; the
【答案】D
【详解】句意：——电影《浪浪山小妖怪》是一部优秀的影片。——我同意。它是今年最有意义的电影之一。
第一空泛指“一部”优秀的电影，excellent是以元音音素开头的单词，用不定冠词an；第二空处于“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”结构中，形容词最高级前需加定冠词the。
2．Because of the development of science and technology, we have a ________ of chances to learn new things now.
A．little B．wealth C．few D．many
【答案】B
【详解】句意：由于科学技术的发展，我们现在有大量的机会学习新事物。
little少的；wealth财富；大量；few少的；many许多。根据“Because of the development of science and technology”可知，科技发展使我们学习新事物的机会变多，且空处需满足“a...of”结构。“a wealth of”意为“大量的，丰富的”，后接可数名词复数，符合语境。
3．—I want to spend my free time reading some new books. Could you advise me ________
—How about some popular novels They are interesting and easy to read.
A．what to read B．when to read C．where to read D．how to read
【答案】A
【详解】句意：——我想在空闲时间读一些新书。你能建议我读什么吗？——一些流行的小说怎么样？它们有趣且容易读。
what to read读什么；when to read什么时候读；where to read在哪里读；how to read怎么读。结合上下文语境，答语推荐了具体的读物类型，由此可知问句是询问“读什么”，应用what to read。
4．Our school is calling on students to ________ the“Love for the Elderly” volunteer project.
A．pay attention to B．look forward to C．take care of D．sign up for
【答案】D
【详解】句意：我们学校正在号召学生报名参加“关爱老年”志愿活动。

— It tells us ________.
A．why we must work hard every day

C．When should we buy a new pen

【答案】D
【详解】句意：——露西，“亡羊补牢”是什么意思？——它告诉我们当我们犯错时应该做什么。
why we must work hard every day我们为什么必须每天努力工作；what can we do to keep the sheep safe我们能做些什么来保证羊的安全；When should we buy a new pen我们什么时候应该买一支新钢笔；what we should do when we make mistakes当我们犯错时，我们应该做什么。“Mend the pen after the sheep are lost”对应中文谚语“亡羊补牢”，寓意出了问题后及时补救。宾语从句需用陈述语序，B项和C项均为疑问语序，排除；A项强调努力工作，与谚语寓意不符；D项涉及犯错后的做法，既符合陈述语序，又契合“及时补救”的含义。

—________. Let’s plant more trees.
A．Never mind B．Good luck C．I agree D．With pleasure
【答案】C
【详解】句意：——我们应该采取行动保护我们的环境。——我同意。让我们种更多的树吧。
Never mind没关系，用于回答道歉或安慰；Good luck祝你好运；I agree我同意；With pleasure很乐意，用于答应请求。根据“We should take action to protect our environment.”和“Let’s plant more trees.”，上文提出保护环境的建议，下文提议种更多的树，说明回答者“赞同”对方的观点。应填I agree。
7．Playing computer games takes too much time. He is warned to________ playing them.
A．carry on B．give up C．cut down D．push in
【答案】B
【详解】句意：玩电脑游戏花费太多时间。他被警告要放弃玩它们。
carry on继续；give up放弃；cut down削减；push in插队。根据前句“Playing computer games takes too much time.”可知，因为花费时间太多，所以他被警告应该“放弃/戒除”玩电脑游戏，故填give up。
8．Tengwang Pavilion is one of ________ buildings. Every year many people visit it.
A．famous B．more famous C．the more famous D．the most famous
【答案】D
【详解】句意：滕王阁是最著名的建筑之一。每年都有许多人参观它。

A．making their way B．looking up
C．signing up D．counting down
【答案】D
【详解】句意：——青年仪式就要到了。学生们准备得怎么样？——他们很兴奋，正在快乐地倒计时迎接这一天。
making their way前进；looking up查阅；signing up报名；counting down倒计时。根据“The Youth Ceremony is coming”可知仪式即将到来，结合“excited”可知学生们很期待。只有“倒计时”符合迎接即将到来的日子的语境。所以选D。
10．—I don’t know ________ when we are in trouble at school.

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。
11．________ volunteers will help the old people in the nursing home next week.
A．Two hundreds B．Hundreds of C．Hundred of D．Two hundreds of
【答案】B
【详解】句意：下周将有数百名志愿者去敬老院帮助老人。
hundred前面有具体数字时，hundred不加s，也不加of；表示概数时，hundred后加s，再加of，hundreds of意为“数以百计的；成百上千的”。
12．She looks upset. She _________ failed the English exam, but I’m not sure.
A．may have B．must have C．can have D．should have
【答案】A
【详解】句意：她看起来很沮丧。她可能英语考试没及格，但我不确定。
may have failed可能不及格；must have failed一定不及格；can have failed一般用于否定句或疑问句中，表示对过去的推测；should have failed本应该不及格 (实际及格了)。句尾“but I’m not sure”说明，说话人对“她没及格”这件事是不确定的推测，语气较弱，“may have”符合语境。
13．Which sentence is grammatically correct
A．Could you please to take out the rubbish
B．I think teenagers should learn to do housework.
C．He doesn’t like help his mother with housework.
D．My mother ask me to tidy up my room every day.
【答案】B

Could you please to take out the rubbish 语法错误，Could you please后接动词原形；I think teenagers should learn to do housework.语法正确，情态动词should后接动词原形；He doesn’t like help his mother with housework.语法错误，like后接to do或doing；My mother ask me to tidy up my room every day.语法错误，my mother为第三人称单数，后接ask的第三人称单数形式asks。应填I think teenagers should learn to do housework.
14．—Being a volunteer sometimes is difficult, but it can improve our social skills.

Not exactly并非如此；You got the point你说到点子上了；You are kidding me你在跟我开玩笑吧；That’s all right没关系。根据“The more we practise, the better we will be.”可知，答者认同说话者的观点，认为练习能带来进步。应填You got the point。

frightened感到害怕的（修饰人）；frightening令人害怕的（修饰物）。根据第一空前的主语“The little girl”（小女孩）可知，此处表示人“感到害怕的”，应填frightened；根据第二空后的名词“snake”（蛇）可知，此处表示蛇“令人害怕的”，应填frightening。

【详解】16．句意：但我的叔叔在前一天晚上给我打了电话。
根据后文叔叔告诉Maria关于表妹Nina要来参加比赛的事情，可知叔叔是“打电话”给Maria，故选called。“helped”帮助，“showed”展示，均不符合。
17．句意：我叔叔担心Nina会紧张，所以他让我和Nina一起去参加比赛。
根据常识，参加演讲比赛前选手通常会感到“紧张/焦虑”，故选nervous。“crazy”疯狂的，“ill”生病的，均不符合。
18．句意：所以我给Jenny留言：“Jenny，我的表妹要来了，所以我这周六不能和你一起去购物了。”
前后是因果关系，“我表妹要来”是原因，“不能去购物”是结果，用“so”表示所以。
19．句意：Jenny没有回复我的消息。
“reply to”是固定搭配，意为“回复”，符合语境。“offer”提供，“push”推，均不符合。
20．句意：作为我们的朋友，你能帮帮我们吗？

根据前文“Jenny is a kind girl” (Jenny是个善良的女孩)，以及Danny安慰Maria，可知他认为Jenny会“理解”，故选understand。“change”改变，“imagine”想象，均不符合。
24．句意：我们放学后为什么不一起去我们最喜欢的餐厅，边吃边好好聊一聊呢？
结合“have a good...during the meal after school”可知，这里是指一边吃饭一边聊天，“have a good talk”意为“好好聊一聊/好好谈谈”，符合语境。“dream”梦想，“decision”决定，均不符合。
25．句意：别告诉我你的表妹又要来了。
根据开头Maria就是因为表妹要来而爽约，Danny在信末开玩笑说“别告诉我你表妹又要来了”，用“cousin”符合。“friend”朋友，“uncle”叔叔，均不符合。

A
Exercise isn’t just good for our bodies. It can also benefit brains (大脑). In a new study, scientists found that exercise can improve students’ focus at school.
Scientists from the University of North Carolina did the study with 25 students aged 9 to 12. The children did simple but high-intensity (高强度的) exercises like jumping jacks and squats. Each exercise lasted 30 seconds, with a 30-second rest in between. They exercised for 9 minutes in total.
After the exercises, the scientists asked the students to take tests on the computer. Many of these tests focused on reading or other language skills. The scientists wanted to see if the high-intensity exercises would affect (影响) the test results. So, they also had the students take tests after doing low-intensity exercises (like riding a bike) and after watching a video. The result was interesting. The students did best in the language tests right after the high-intensity exercises.
The scientists watched the students’ brain activity, too. They found that the high-intensity exercises changed a type of brain response (反应). Usually, negative (消极的) response happens when people realized they made a mistake. In the tests after the exercises, the students noticed their mistakes but didn’t spend too much time thinking about them. Instead (相反), they moved on quickly and focused on the rest of the tests.
“Physical activity is great for kids’ brain health and schoolwork,” one scientist said. It’s good that students can do these exercises in the classroom. So a short exercise rest might be just what students need to do better in class!
根据材料内容，选择正确答案。
26．How long did the students do high-intensity exercises in the study
A．For 25 seconds. B．For 30 seconds. C．For 9 minutes. D．For 12 minutes.
27．Which activity helped the students do best in the language tests
A．Reading short stories. B．Riding a bike.
C．Watching a funny video. D．Doing jumping jacks and squats.

A．They did the tests a little slower.
B．They began worrying more about the tests.
C．They spent a lot of time finding out the reasons.
D．They quickly turned their attention back to the tests.
29．What’s the right structure of the passage
A．①②/③④/⑤. B．①/②③④/⑤.
C．①②/③/④⑤. D．①/②③④⑤.
30．Why did the writer write the text
A．To encourage students to exercise more.
B．To explain changes in brain activity during exercise.
C．To compare different ways of improving language skills.
D．To tell that exercise is good for students’ physical health.
【答案】26．C 27．D 28．D 29．B 30．A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍一项科学研究，说明高强度短时运动能提升学生的注意力和课堂表现，对大脑和学业有积极帮助。
【详解】26．第二段指出，“They exercised for 9 minutes in total.”本次高强度运动合计时长为9分钟。
27．根据第二段中“The children did simple but high-intensity exercises like jumping jacks and squats.”和第三段最后一句话“The students did best in the language tests right after the high-intensity exercises.”可知，开合跳和深蹲是本次的高强度运动项目，做完该运动后学生语言测试发挥最好。
28．原文指出“In the tests after the exercises, the students noticed their mistakes but didn’t spend too much time thinking about them. Instead, they moved on quickly and focused on the rest of the tests.” 说明学生发现错误后不会过度纠结、放慢速度、反复焦虑，而是快速跳过问题，重新将注意力投入到剩下的考试题目中。
29．第1段：总述观点，引出本次科学研究，第2-4段：具体介绍实验过程、实验结果、大脑科学原理，第5段：总结研究结论，发出课堂短时运动的倡议，对应划分 ①/②③④/⑤。
30．根据最后一段“Physical activity is great for kids’ brain health and schoolwork... So a short exercise rest might be just what students need to do better in class!”，可知，文章通篇用科学实验证明运动的好处，最终目的是呼吁并鼓励学生多进行短时锻炼，提升课堂和学业表现。

阅读A、B、C三篇短文、从每小题所给的四个选项中，选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。
A
Exercise isn’t just good for our bodies. It can also benefit brains (大脑). In a new study, scientists found that exercise can improve students’ focus at school.
Scientists from the University of North Carolina did the study with 25 students aged 9 to 12. The children did simple but high-intensity (高强度的) exercises like jumping jacks and squats. Each exercise lasted 30 seconds, with a 30-second rest in between. They exercised for 9 minutes in total.
After the exercises, the scientists asked the students to take tests on the computer. Many of these tests focused on reading or other language skills. The scientists wanted to see if the high-intensity exercises would affect (影响) the test results. So, they also had the students take tests after doing low-intensity exercises (like riding a bike) and after watching a video. The result was interesting. The students did best in the language tests right after the high-intensity exercises.
The scientists watched the students’ brain activity, too. They found that the high-intensity exercises changed a type of brain response (反应). Usually, negative (消极的) response happens when people realized they made a mistake. In the tests after the exercises, the students noticed their mistakes but didn’t spend too much time thinking about them. Instead (相反), they moved on quickly and focused on the rest of the tests.
“Physical activity is great for kids’ brain health and schoolwork,” one scientist said. It’s good that students can do these exercises in the classroom. So a short exercise rest might be just what students need to do better in class!

26．How long did the students do high-intensity exercises in the study
A．For 25 seconds. B．For 30 seconds. C．For 9 minutes. D．For 12 minutes.
