5．（8分）You can see kudzu almost everywhere in the southern United States.Many people think southern United States is the home to this plant，but it is not.People brought kudzu to the United States from Japan in 1876.Many Americans thought it was beautiful，so they began to plant it.They didn't know it could grow up to a foot a day during the summer months.Nor did they know it would grow up and over anything around it.
In Japan，kudzu experienced cold winters and a short growing season.But in the United States，it has a very long growing season with warm and wet southern weather.It is fine weather for the plant to grow fast.
In the 1920s，people used it to feed farm animals.Ten years later，the government allowed planting kudzu because it stopped rain from washing away soil（土壤）.However，by the 1950s，the government no longer wanted people to plant the plant.Twenty years after that，the government said it was a bad plant.
The plant grows up over trees and buildings，making some beautiful shapes.However，trees die after kudzu covers them because of the lack of（缺乏） light.Scientists are looking for ways to kill the plant.They used poisons（毒药） to kill kudzu.However，some of the poisons made it grow even better.Scientists also find it difficult to dig up kudzu.
Because kudzu is so hard to kill，some people are making the best of it.So they try to find different uses for the plant.They find it can be used to make paper and baskets，it can be used to feed the goats，and it can even be eaten by people.Scientists hope that they can use it as a medicine in the future.I think it is the right thing to do with this special plant.
（1）Why did Americans begin to plant kudzu？
A.Because it was beautiful .
B.Because they wanted to eat it.
C.Because it grew so fast.
D.Because it was easy to plant.
（2）Why do some trees die after kudzu covers them？
A.Because they grow more slowly.
B.Because kudzu has poison.
C.Because they can't get enough light.
D.Because kudzu is too strong.
（3）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？
A.There used to be no kudzu in the United States.
B.Kudzu can grow in cold and warm weather.
C.America has ever allowed planting kudzu.
D.Americans are now using kudzu as a medicine.
（4）Which is the writer's opinion about kudzu？
A.Planting more.
B.Trying to kill it.

5．（8分）You can see kudzu almost everywhere in the southern United States.Many people think southern United States is the home to this plant，but it is not.People brought kudzu to the United States from Japan in 1876.Many Americans thought it was beautiful，so they began to plant it.They didn't know it could grow up to a foot a day during the summer months.Nor did they know it would grow up and over anything around it.

In the 1920s，people used it to feed farm animals.Ten years later，the government allowed planting kudzu because it stopped rain from washing away soil（土壤）.However，by the 1950s，the government no longer wanted people to plant the plant.Twenty years after that，the government said it was a bad plant.

【分析】这篇短文主要介绍了葛藤在美国南部几乎无处不在。1876年，人们从日本将葛藤带到美国。许多美国人认为它很美丽，所以开始种植。在20世纪20年代，人们用它来喂养农场动物。十年后，政府允许种植葛藤，因为它可以防止雨水冲走土壤。然而，到了20世纪50年代，政府不再希望人们种植这种植物。再过20年，政府称其为有害植物。树木在被葛藤覆盖后会死亡，因为缺乏光照。由于葛藤很难被消灭，一些人正在充分利用它，他们试图找到不同的用途。他们发现它可以用来制造纸张和篮子，可以用来喂养山羊，甚至可以被人类食用。科学家希望将来可以将其用作药物。

【解答】（1）考查名词。句意：我和几个朋友去过那里。friend"朋友"，可数名词单数。several"几个"，修饰可数名词复数，所以此处填名词复数形式。故填friends。
（2）考查形容词最高级。句意：我们都很兴奋去爬最长的城墙——中国的长城。long"长的"，形容词。根据the Great Wall in China（中国的长城）可知，是最长的，所以应填形容词最高级longest，最高级前面加定冠词the。故填the longest。

（6）考查名词。句意：成就感是如此强烈。achieve"获得"，动词。分析句中可知，此处应填名词，achievement"成就"，the feeling of achievement"成就感"。故填achievement。
（7）考查连词。句意：我们在山顶呆了一个小时，拍了很多照片。根据句意可知，前后句是并列关系，所以用and连接。故填and。
（8）考查形容词。句意：导游给我们讲了许多关于古代中国的神奇故事。amaze"使大为惊奇"，动词。空格处在句中修饰名词stories，所以应填形容词，amazing"令人惊奇的"符合题意。故填amazing。
（9）考查现在完成时态。句意：到目前为止，我已经读了三遍《明史》。read"读"，动词。根据So far（到目前为止）可知，该句为现在完成时态，结构为：have/has+动词过去分词，主语是I，所以助动词用have，read的过去分词是read。故填have read。
（10）考查冠词。句意：虽然我们觉得累，但我们很高兴，因为我们玩得很开心。have a good time"玩得开心"，固定短语，且really是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以此处填不定冠词a。故填a。

5．（8分）You can see kudzu almost everywhere in the southern United States.Many people think southern United States is the home to this plant，but it is not.People brought kudzu to the United States from Japan in 1876.Many Americans thought it was beautiful，so they began to plant it.They didn't know it could grow up to a foot a day during the summer months.Nor did they know it would grow up and over anything around it.
In Japan，kudzu experienced cold winters and a short growing season.But in the United States，it has a very long growing season with warm and wet southern weather.It is fine weather for the plant to grow fast.
In the 1920s，people used it to feed farm animals.Ten years later，the government allowed planting kudzu because it stopped rain from washing away soil（土壤）.However，by the 1950s，the government no longer wanted people to plant the plant.Twenty years after that，the government said it was a bad plant.
The plant grows up over trees and buildings，making some beautiful shapes.However，trees die after kudzu covers them because of the lack of（缺乏） light.Scientists are looking for ways to kill the plant.They used poisons（毒药） to kill kudzu.However，some of the poisons made it grow even better.Scientists also find it difficult to dig up kudzu.
Because kudzu is so hard to kill，some people are making the best of it.So they try to find different uses for the plant.They find it can be used to make paper and baskets，it can be used to feed the goats，and it can even be eaten by people.Scientists hope that they can use it as a medicine in the future.I think it is the right thing to do with this special plant.

【分析】这篇短文主要介绍了葛藤在美国南部几乎无处不在。1876年，人们从日本将葛藤带到美国。许多美国人认为它很美丽，所以开始种植。在20世纪20年代，人们用它来喂养农场动物。十年后，政府允许种植葛藤，因为它可以防止雨水冲走土壤。然而，到了20世纪50年代，政府不再希望人们种植这种植物。再过20年，政府称其为有害植物。树木在被葛藤覆盖后会死亡，因为缺乏光照。由于葛藤很难被消灭，一些人正在充分利用它，他们试图找到不同的用途。他们发现它可以用来制造纸张和篮子，可以用来喂养山羊，甚至可以被人类食用。科学家希望将来可以将其用作药物。

【分析】这篇短文主要写了作者和朋友们去北京旅游的经历。他们一起去爬长城，开始时很兴奋。爬到一半时开始下雨，但他们没有放弃，最终成功爬到了山顶。他们在山顶上停留了一个小时，拍了很多照片。下山时，他们还参观了故宫博物院，导游给他们讲了许多关于古代中国的令人惊奇的故事。作者对中国历史很感兴趣，已经读了《明史》三遍。回程途中他们休息了一下，晚上十点才回到酒店，虽然感到疲倦，但他们很开心，因为度过了一个非常愉快的时光。
【解答】（1）考查名词。句意：我和几个朋友去过那里。friend"朋友"，可数名词单数。several"几个"，修饰可数名词复数，所以此处填名词复数形式。故填friends。
（2）考查形容词最高级。句意：我们都很兴奋去爬最长的城墙——中国的长城。long"长的"，形容词。根据the Great Wall in China（中国的长城）可知，是最长的，所以应填形容词最高级longest，最高级前面加定冠词the。故填the longest。
（3）考查介词。句意：我们很难继续下去。it's+形容词+for sb.to do sth."对某人来说做某事是怎样的"，固定句型。故填for。
（4）考查动名词。句意：然而，我们谁也没有放弃攀登。climb"攀登"，动词。give up doing sth."放弃做某事"，固定短语，所以此处填动名词climbing。故填climbing。
（5）考查副词。句意：大约五个小时后，我们成功地到达了山顶。success"成功"，名词。空格处在句中修饰动词got，所以应填副词，successfully"成功地"符合题意。故填successfully。
（6）考查名词。句意：成就感是如此强烈。achieve"获得"，动词。分析句中可知，此处应填名词，achievement"成就"，the feeling of achievement"成就感"。故填achievement。
（7）考查连词。句意：我们在山顶呆了一个小时，拍了很多照片。根据句意可知，前后句是并列关系，所以用and连接。故填and。
（8）考查形容词。句意：导游给我们讲了许多关于古代中国的神奇故事。amaze"使大为惊奇"，动词。空格处在句中修饰名词stories，所以应填形容词，amazing"令人惊奇的"符合题意。故填amazing。
（9）考查现在完成时态。句意：到目前为止，我已经读了三遍《明史》。read"读"，动词。根据So far（到目前为止）可知，该句为现在完成时态，结构为：have/has+动词过去分词，主语是I，所以助动词用have，read的过去分词是read。故填have read。
（10）考查冠词。句意：虽然我们觉得累，但我们很高兴，因为我们玩得很开心。have a good time"玩得开心"，固定短语，且really是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以此处填不定冠词a。故填a。
