C。
2. There are thirty desks ___________ my classroom.
A. in B. on C. of D. from
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：在我的教室里有30张桌子。
的
考查介词辨析。in 在…里；on在…上，of… ；from 从。根据句意，这些桌子是在我的教室里，用

触），如on the chair。
3. I tried to stop him, _________ he didn't listen.
A. and B. but C. or D. so
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：我尝试去阻止他，但是他不听。
考查连词辨析。and 和；but 但是；or 或者；so 所以。根据句意，上文“我尝试阻止他”，和下文“他
不听”是表示转折关系，所以用转折连词but。故选B。
【点睛】and/but/or/so都属于并列连词，区别是：and表示“和”，是并列关系的连词；but表示“但是”，
是转折关系的连词；or表示“或者”，是选择关系的连词；so表示“所以”，是因果关系的连词。
4. —I heard you had a basketball match. ____________ did you play?—Very well. We won the game.
A. When B. Where C. How D. Why

说法语吗，表示某种能力用情态动词can。故选A。
6. Tina runs __________ than anyone else in her class.
A. fast B. faster C. fastest D. the fastest
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：蒂娜在她班级里比其他人跑的快。
考查副词比较级辨析。fast 快；faster 更快；fastest最快，the fastest 最快。run是实义动词，空格处用副
的
词修饰动词。根据句中than，可知用副词 比较级。所以空格处是faster。故选B。

A. does B. has done C. did D. is doing
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：大卫现在不能跟我们一起走，因为他正在做学校的项目。
考查动词时态辨析。does 一般现在时；has done 现在完成时；did 一般过去时；is doing 现在进行时。根
据句中now可知，句子表示现在正在进行的动作，所以用现在进行时，结构为be doing，主语he是第三人
称，所以be用is。故选D。

【解析】
【详解】当我到那的时候，杰克正在跟他的朋友们讨论一个数学问题。
考查动词时态辨析。discusses 一般现在时；discussed 一般过去时；is discussing现在进行时；was
discussing 过去进行时。when是引导的时间状语从句，根据句意，当我到那的时候，他正在跟他的朋友们
讨论一个数学问题，所以主句用进行时。从句中got是一般过去时，所以主句用过去进行时。故选D。
9. My dad is good at painting and he often _________ in his free time.
A. paints B. is painting C. will paint D. has painted
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：我的爸爸擅长绘画，并且他经常在闲暇时间画画。
考查动词时态辨析。paints 一般现在时；is painting 现在进行时；will paint 一般将来时；has painted 现在
完成时。often经常，句子用一般现在时，主语he是第三人称，所以动词用三单形式。故选A。
10. I am tired. I ___________ basketball for three hours.
A. play B. played C. have played D. will play
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：我很累。我已经打了三个小时的篮球。
考查动词时态辨析。play 一般现在时；played 一般过去时；have played 现在完成时；will play 一般将来

A. cancels B. cancelled
C. is cancelled D. was cancelled
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意：因为昨天的坏天气，运动会被取消了。
考查被动语态辨析。cancels 一般现在时；cancelled 一般过去时；is cancelled 一般现在时的被动语态；
was cancelled 一般过去时的被动语态。根据时间性状语yesterday判断，句子用一般过去时。主语sports
meeting和cancel之间是被动的关系，所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故选D。
12. —Mum, do you know ____________________?
—Next week.
A. when will Dad come back B. when Dad will come backC. when did Dad come back D. when Dad came back
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：——妈妈，你知道爸爸什么时候回来吗？——下周。
考查宾语从句。根据句子结构，空格处是一个宾语从句。从句要用陈述句语序，结构为主语+动词+其它。
A和C选项都是疑问句语序，所以排除A和C选项。根据下文回复的是下周，可知从句表达的是将来要发
生的动作，用一般将来时，D选项中came是一般过去时，所以排除D选项。故选B。
【点睛】宾语从句要注意的两点：从句语序和时态。从句要用陈述句语序，除了what’s wrong with
you/what’s the matter语序不变。时态：主句用一般现在时，从句可以用任何时态；主句用一般过去时，从
句用过去某种时态；从句表达客观事实或自然现象时，从句用一般现在时。

I started middle school this year, and this caused some painful changes for me. All of my closest friends go to
different middle schools in the area. The only classmate I know from my old school is Jake, who's talented in math,
but since it's not my favorite subject, we never became friends.
,
Another big change is that my new teachers set a lot of homework especially in math. So you can
imagine why my heart wasn't exactly dancing when I started middle school.
By the end of October, Jake and I had become good friends. It happened because I was so hopeless trying to
do my math homework. One day, I came to Jake after school.
“Hey, Jake, ”I began, "I was wondering if you could."
“Help you with the math homework, right?" he said, completing my sentence. "Sure, I'd be happy to help you,
Miguel.” I was surprised because, to be truthful, I wasn't sure until that moment if Jake even knew my name. And
yet here he was happy to save me from drowning in my sea of math problems.
That night, Jake and I studied together, and it was time well spent. I must say that Jake is an excellent math
teacher.
The next day in class, I was even able to answer one of the math problems. Our teacher was surprised when I
raised my hand, and guess what-so was I!
They say time flies when you're having fun, and I guess it's really true. I can't believe winter vacation is almost
here! The school days have been flying by like a jet plane. I suppose it's because I'm a much more focused
student-especially in math-than I ever was before.
Jake and I plan to hang out together during winter break. He promised to show me the Math Museumdowntown. I believe it will be an unforgettable experience for us.
24. How did the writer feel when he started middle school?

Most adults show less interest in climate（气候）change than young people. Yet it's adults who have the
power to influence the policies（政策）causing climate change. Now a new study shows that teenagers may be
able to raise their parents' interest in human effects on climate.
In the study, a new curriculum（课程）was used in some schools in coastal North Carolina. The students
worked on four activities centered on the connections between climate change and local wildlife. They also tookpart in a community-based project and interviewed their parents about the changes in weather they had noticed in
their lifetimes. To see how attitudes changed as a result of the program, the researchers surveyed both students and
parents at the beginning and the end of the study.
The study shows the students who completed the climate change module cared more about the issue（问题）.
The effect was even stronger among parents. Experts say the program's success had a lot to do with how teachers
dealt with climate change in the classroom.
"Reading a textbook and completing a worksheet are unlikely to lead students to talk about their day at the
dinner table, ”says Martha Monroe, an expert on environmental education at the University of Florida. Instead, the
researchers designed hands-on lessons focused on local issues. For example, one task involved monitoring the
weather outside the school and comparing it with historical information about the area.
Those activities may have helped increase parental involvement. "If you can get kids so excited and talking
with their parents about what they are learning in schools, parents will want to learn, ”says Danielle Lawson, a
social scientist and leading researcher of the study. However, she adds, “We are not telling the students what to
think or what to say. That way, kids didn't feel that there was all this responsibility put on them to change their
parents' minds about anything.”
Lawson is hopeful that kids can boost their parents' understanding of climate science. "I know how powerful
kids can be, ”Lawson says. "Kids don't need a special curriculum to discuss climate change at home. They just need
to talk to their parents about what they see going on.”
27. The second paragraph is mainly about
A. how the study was carried out
B. how the activities were designed
C. why a new curriculum was introduced
D. why both students and parents were surveyed
28. What can we learn about the new curriculum from the passage?
A. It developed students' communication skills.
B. It focused on lessons about climate change in textbooks.
C. It helped students feel responsible to change their parents.
D. It created more chances for families to talk about climate change.
29. The word "boost" in the last paragraph probably means “_____________”.
A. check B. express C. improve D. share
【答案】27. A 28. D 29. C
【解析】【分析】本文讲述了大多数成年人对气候变化的兴趣不如年轻人。通过一个研究来证明可以通过青少年来
提高他们的父母对气候方面的兴趣。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Now a new study shows that teenagers may be able to raise their parents'
interest in human effects on climate”可知，第二段是要介绍这个研究的整个过程，即如何实施这个研究的。
故选A。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中 “Those activities may have helped increase parental involvement. "If you can get kids so
excited and talking with their parents about what they are learning in schools, parents will want to learn,”可知，
通过这个新的课程，孩子们可以增加更多的与父母交流气候等问题的机会。故选D。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。check 检查；express 表达；improve 提升；share 分享。根据 “I know how powerful kids can
be…They just need to talk to their parents about what they see going on.”，可知，劳森是希望通过青少年与父
母对气候等知识的交流来提升父母对气候科学的理解。所以boost意思是“提升”。故选C。
D
I recently watched a TV program Real Sports where the presenter looked into the culture of handing out
participation（参与）trophies to children. There's no doubt that today's kids live in a world of scoreless games and
everyone gets a trophy. Sometimes when a league decides to award（奖励）just the winners instead of all
participants, the parents buy their own trophies for the whole team!
However, when we try to protect children from losing at the early ages, are they less prepared when real
competition kicks in? People who support giving trophies say they want to make each child feel special, but how
does this make them feel special? Stanford University looked at this recently and found that although kids react
positively to praise-they enjoy hearing that they're talented, smart and so on, they break down at the first experience
of difficulty. Discouraged by their failure, they say they'd rather cheat than risk failing again.
There are also endless social-science studies showing the harmful effects of easy competition, not just on the
psyche（精神）but more surprisingly on achievement. If children know they will get an award simply by showing
up, what is the reason for improvement? Jean Twenge, writer of Generation Me, warns that when living rooms arefilled with participation trophies, it's part of a larger cultural message: to succeed, you just have to show up. In
college, those who've grown up receiving these endless awards do the required work, but don't see the need to do it
well. In the office, they still believe that attendance is all it takes to get a promotion（晋升）.
When I was a child, I earned my fair share of trophies but none of them was for just showing up. I also missed
out on even more and had to watch my friends collect them while I stood by and clapped. I realized that in life, I'm
going to lose more often than I win, even if I'm good at something, and I've got to get used to that to keep going.
When children make mistakes, our job should not be to turn those losses into decorated（装饰性的）
victories. Instead, our job is to help kids overcome difficulties, to help them see that progress over time is more
important than a certain win or loss, and to help them politely congratulate those who succeed when they fail. To do
that, we need to refuse all the meaningless trophies.
30. The writer mentions Stanford University's study to show that
A. kids should be awarded for their special talents
B. necessary protection helps kids deal with failure
C. parents should try their best to keep kids out of competition
D. overpraise is likely to reduce kids' ability to face difficulties
31. The writer probably agrees that
A. attendance is the key to making progress
B. participation is more important than victory
C. getting awards easily stops kids from working hard
D. participation trophies give kids a sense of achievement
32. From his childhood experience, the writer has learned that
A. it's difficult to accept friends' victories
B. it's beneficial to learn from teammates
C. it's important to face winning or losing properly
D. it's necessary to be excellent at something to succeed
33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Participation Trophies: Do They Really Matter?
B. Participation Trophies: Why Are They Special?
C. Participation Trophies: How Do They Help Kids?
D. Participation Trophies: Who Should Award Them?
【答案】30. D 31. C 32. C 33. A
【解析】
【分析】本文讲述了作者因为看了一个电视节目而引发的关于当今社会孩子们总是成长在一个不断被表扬被称赞的环境中的深思。在这样的环境下，孩子们如果遇到了挫折他们会逃避而不会想着如何去克服困难。
而我们要告诉孩子们，进步比短暂的失败和胜利都重要。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“Stanford University looked at this recently and found that…,they break down at the first
experience of difficulty. Discouraged by their failure, they say they'd rather cheat than risk failing again”，可知，
过度的表扬会导致降低孩子们面对困难的能力，他们宁愿欺骗也不愿意再承受失败的风险。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中“If children know they will get an award simply by showing up, what is the reason for
improvement?”，如果孩子们知道他们很容易的得到奖励，那改进的理由是什么呢？可知，作者认为轻易
的得到奖励会阻止孩子们更加的努力。故选C。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“I realized that in life, I'm going to lose more often than I win, even if I'm good at something,
and I've got to get used to that to keep going”，我意识到在我的生活里，我失去的比我得到的多。可知，从
作者的童年生活，作者明白要积极面对得与失。故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文中第一段“I recently watched a TV program Real Sports where the presenter looked into the
culture of handing out participation trophies to children…”，作者通过看了一个电视节目对于每个参与的小朋
友都颁发奖品而引发的关于当今社会的现象感悟。由此可知，本文最合适的题目是：在孩子的生活中，这
些参与奖对孩子们真的重要吗？故选A。

Young Inventor Creates Plastic from Fish Scales
Lucy Hughes, a 24-year-old English inventor, has used fish skin and scales(鳞）to create a new kind of plastic
that will break down in about six weeks. Her invention won 2019 James Dyson Award, which was created by the
famous English inventor James Dyson to encourage students to try to use their creativity to solve problems in the
real world.
Lucy Hughes studied how to design products at the University of Sussex in England. As a designer, she knew
a lot about how wasteful many products are. Plastic bags, for example, are often used once for a short time and then
thrown away. She decided to challenge herself to make something out of waste instead
The University of Sussex isn't far from the coast. Ms. Hughes spent some time studying the fishing business
and the waste from fish that were thrown away. After some tests, she decided that the fish skin and scales seemed
like the most likely parts for her product. She tried more than 100 different experiments before getting things just
right. Ms. Hughes called her finished product "MarinaTex". It solves two problems: the single-use plastic and fishwaste.
MarinaTex is clear and feels like plastic, but it's stronger than normal plastic that is of the same thickness. It is
also cheap to make since it's made from fish waste. The process of making MarinaTex also doesn't use much
energy. Most importantly, MarinaTex doesn't take hundreds of years to break down. On its own, it breaks down in
four to six weeks.
For winning the contest, Ms. Hughes will earn f,30, 000. Her school will get f,5, 000. She is looking forward
to moving ahead with her idea. She hopes the award money will help her with the process of getting MarinaTex
into use as quickly as possible. She thinks that one of the best uses for MarinaTex will be in some kinds of food
packaging.

school. I work on just one task at a time. I also limit my time on mobile phone or TV. At weekend, I make a plan for

relax.
