三、完形填空(共20小题, 计20分)
AThere are many differences between Chinese eating habits and Western eating habits. In
the West, everyone has their own ________21 of food. But in China the dishes are
________22 on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, there
must be ________23 food prepared for you. Chinese are very ________24 of their
culture and will try their best to show their hospitality (好客).
Sometimes the Chinese host uses their ________25 to put food in your bowl or plate.
This is a sign of politeness. The proper thing to do is to eat whatever it is and say how
________26 it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say “Thanks” and leave
the food there. Don't ________27 your chopsticks upright into the rice bowl. Instead,
lay( 放 置 ) them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody has
________28, the shrine(神龛)to him has a bowl of sand or rice with two chopsticks
which are stuck upright in it. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout(壶
嘴) is facing ________29 somebody. The spout should always be directed to the place
where nobody is sitting, usually just outward(向外) from the table.
Don't hit on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars(乞丐) hit on their bowls, so
it is not polite. Also, when the food is coming too ________30 in a restaurant, people
will tap their bowls. If you are in someone's home, it is like offending the cook.

At many Thanksgiving dinners, everyone around the table shares something they are
thankful for with each other. As we know, most can do this _________31. It's very important to
know how to be people who are thankful for something all the time.
Be positive. No matter what happens, it's best to _________32 the good things in
your life. Find the bright side in a bad _________33, and push back against negative
(消极的) opinions. Also, do your best not to compare yourself with others. And when
you're around others, give _________34 to what you like about them. By keeping good in
mind, you'll give thanks for it even more than before.
_________35 the negative things. At the same time, we can't pay no attention to bad things
that have happened. We should learn from the mistake. It makes us become _________36.
Before we know it, we're thankful for the negative thing, too. Our mistakes can also make us
humble (谦逊的), which is not all bad. Humble people have _________37 relationships
and see life's blessings (幸事)much more clearly!
Enjoy the time. By spending time with others, you _________38 them how much they
mean to you. And being thankful is also better realized by spending time alone. When you're

四、阅读理解(共15小题, 计20分)
阅读下面短文, 选出最佳答案。(共10小题, 计15分)
A
People use languages to communicate. Any language has its ways to express people's
minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms. An idiom is a group of words. It has a
special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is
an idiom meaning ill. So when people say “I'm under the weather, ” they are
saying that they're not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all
kinds of weather. So, “There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all
weathers” tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot.
Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are
learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless
headaches. On the other hand, if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking
into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk.
Metaphor (比喻) is often used in idioms. Let's read the following two examples:
● It makes my blood boil (沸腾) when people litter.
● The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange
noise outside at dark night.
In neither situation above, our blood can reach the point so high or so low in
temperature. Yet, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to work out theunhappy feelings of really angry in the first example and very afraid in the second.
Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a
foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested.
41. This passage tells us something about ____ in the English language.
A. grammar
B. writing
C. reading
D. idioms
42. If your brother breaks your computer, you can say to him, “____.”
A. I'm under the weather
B. I'm there in all weathers
C. You've made my blood boil
D. My blood runs cold
43. What is the writer's advice when you come to an expression like under the weather?
A. We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary.
B. We should try to express our minds with it.
C. We should find an interesting way to learn it.
D. We should create situations to guess its meaning.
B
This is a tale of two friends—one is blind, and the other has no arms. On their own, the
two are “disabled”. But together, they are a powerful team that has changed part of their village
in North China's Hebei Province into a rich, green forest. Meet Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi!
Their story began in 2002. Haixia, who was already blind in his right eye, lost
his left one after an illness. Wenqi lost his arms in an accident when he was just
three. Neither could find a job, so the two decided to team up. They rented some
poor land and began to plant trees. Haixia and Wenqi never imagined that they would
end up creating an environmental paradise. Their forest now has over 10, 000 trees,
with hundreds of birds and many other wild animals. In addition, it saves the village
from river flooding during the rainy season. When the friends work together, they
focus on their strength not their disabilities. Their day begins at 7 am, when Wenqi
leads the sightless Haixia across the river to get to their worksite. Since they cannot
afford to buy young trees to plant, the two use branches from existing trees. Haixia climbs tothe treetop and with Wenqi's direction, selects the perfect branch. He then digs a hole and
carefully plants it. Finally Wenqi waters the area.
Though hardworking, the men don't make much money. But as Wenqi puts it, “We stand
on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter.”
Neither Haixia nor Wenqi cares about money. Together, they already have everything
they need—a perfect pair of eyes, two strong hands, and the best friendship in the world!
44. Why did Haixia and Wenqi start working together?
A. Haixia needed someone to help him.
B. They both needed a way to make money.
C. They wanted to improve the environment.
D. They were required to do so by local officials.
45. Haixia and Wenqi's forest has helped the village by ____.
A. stopping floods in the rainy season
B. increasing the number of tourists
C. making the villagers richer
D. providing more farmland
46. Why do Haixia and Wenqi plant tree branches?
A. They are easy to get.
B. They do not cost money.
C. They can grow very quickly.
D. They are preferred by animals.
47. What can we learn from this story?
A. Be sure not to give up.
B. We should help the disabled to work.
C. Believe in yourself when facing difficulties.
D. We can achieve more with teamwork.
C
James is an English college student. He wants to study Chinese culture. He says whenforeigners talk about China, they often talk about the Great Wall, Beijing Opera, Chinese tea
and so on. But he wants to learn more about China and Chinese people's life.

can make many kinds of delicious dumplings. And people eat jiaozi when they celebrate
special festivals. Today you can buy dumplings everywhere and eat them all year round. More
and more foreigners like to eat dumplings now. Jiaozi also means “gettogether” in China.
Peonies (牡丹)are regarded as China's national flower. In ancient times, people
planted peonies because they stand for happiness and good luck. Luoyang, Henan, and
Heze, Shandong are famous for peonies. There are many kinds of peonies all around
China now. The flower period often comes in April. Tourists all over the world come to these
places to enjoy peonies every year.
China's national ball game is pingpong. In 1959, Rong Guotuan, a Chinese pingpong
player, got the first gold medal for China. Since then, pingpong has become known to Chinese
people. We also show our friendship by playing pingpong with others. Deng Yaping, another
Chinese pingpong player, got gold medals for many times. Nowadays pingpong is becoming
more and more popular in China.

七、任务型阅读(共5小题, 计10分)
Reading an English newspaper is a good way to improve a student's language
ability, as there are many useful and common words in an English newspaper. It may
help students increase their vocabulary(词汇量) as well as improve their reading skills.
They can learn new knowledge from newspapers. But what is the proper way to read
an English newspaper? Do students need to look over all the contents (内容) of the
newspaper?
The first step is to choose a right newspaper with a good language. Then turn to the front
page and read the headlines(to know what has happened). As the most important things are put
on the front page, it's easy to find out what you're interested in and then turn to the page to read
it completely. There is no need to look through all the articles.
Secondly, read newspapers every day. Remember words through context(上下文),
in which these words may appear repeatedly. Once they appear several times, you will
remember them easily. Don't look up every unknown word in your dictionary. You can
try to guess the meaning between sentences. If your guess is wrong, don't give up. Keep
reading, and you will become familiar with the words after reading them several times in
different texts.
Reading English newspapers makes us knowledgeable. It can not only help us know
what is happening in the world but also improve our language.

The first step is ____________________________________________________.
72. Is it necessary for students to look over all the contents of the newspaper?

Hello, I am Mark. Let me tell you something about the three different countries I
have lived in.
I grew up in a small town in the north of England. Only about 8, 000
people live there, so it's a very quiet place. I can go walking in the countryside.
But I could not do much except that.
When I was 22, I moved to Singapore, which was a huge change. Singapore is a
modern and great place to live in. I met people from so many different countries and I
had a really great time.
I lived in Singapore for ten years, and then in 2016, I moved to Hangzhou, China,
which is where I live now.
Hangzhou is a wonderful place. I live in a quiet neighbourhood not too far from the
city. There are a lot of parks near where I live, and it's a pretty peaceful place. There's so
much to do in Hangzhou, so I never get bored.
I've got no plans to move again in the future. I'm really happy where I am now.

Dear David,
I'm glad to hear that you'll be an exchange student and come to Xi'an to learn Chinese.
Chinese is very useful and many foreigners are learning it now. It may be difficult for you
because it's quite different from English. You have to remember as many Chinese words
as possible. It's also important to do some reading and writing. You can watch TV and
listen to the radio to practice your listening. Try your best to talk with people in Chinese.
You can learn Chinese not only from books but also from people around you. If you have
any question, please ask me. I'm sure you'll learn Chinese well.
Hope to see you soon in Xi'an.
Yours,
Chen Jun
