二、短文选词填空(共6分)

Did you know that a new blog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their feelings, or shared their problems with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatters(唠叨), 15． a few have become Internet success.

For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her 16． liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason why her blog has so many visitors is that she gives 17． and tips for the popular pet site.

Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, 18． photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out 19． clothes or see things in a different way.

Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites are linked to them or they get noticed by the media. For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight 20． after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.

So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!

三、阅读单选(共10分)

    As an old Chinese saying goes, food is No. 1 need. What do astronauts eat on the space station and where does their food come from?

On October 16th, 2021, China launched a rocket and sent three taikonauts(Chinese astronauts)—two men and a woman—to China’s space station core module Tianhe. There are more than 120 kinds of food and drinks inside. They are rich in nutrition, taste good and are easy to keep for a long time. The taikonauts can also have a bite of their favorite specials.

These years, some countries have even started to grow food in space. Back in 2016, taikonauts grew some plants in space, such as lettuce and rice. Now some astronauts are even growing chile peppers in space for the first time. Their seeds(种子) need a long time before they start to come up. Then it takes them a long time to grow. There’s one thing the astronauts will have to do in caring for the plants. They will have to transfer pollen(花粉) to the flowers. In this way, astronauts will get seeds that can grow new plants. It’s also how the peppers form. The seeds grow inside of the chile peppers.

The environment on the space station is quite different from that on the earth. Astronauts don’t feel good and food also tastes different. So chile peppers help them to eat more. The peppers are red. That might help astronauts feel better.

Space plants are also important for a trip to other planets like Mars. Astronauts would need food for staying there and for the long trip to Mars and back.

21．The food and drinks for taikonauts in Tianhe ________.

A．have much nutrition B．have a bad taste C．are less than 120 kinds D．are hard to keep for long

22．The underlined word “transfer” in the third paragraph probably means ________.

A．cut B．feed C．move D．water

23．The peppers make astronauts feel better because they ________.

A．keep the astronauts busy with things to do B．make the astronauts think of their homes

C．are the first vegetables growing in space D．are red and make the astronauts happier

24．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Taikonauts grew food in space 4 years ago. B．The environment in space is bad for astronauts.

C．Food tastes the same for astronauts anywhere. D．Plants can grow better on other planets.

25．Which can be the best title for this passage?

A．Food for Chinese Astronauts B．A Big Business in Space

C．Traveling to the Space Station D．Growing Plants in Space

四、阅读回答问题(共10分)

    Guangdong has a long tradition of making flowers into food because of its warm and humid climate (潮湿的天气). “Sanfu” (三伏天) is the hottest days of the year in China. Locals therefore often cook flower soups during the Sanfu days to clear the heat. Here are two simple recipes for flower soups.

Frangipani and Pork Ribs Soup (鸡蛋花排骨汤)

Ingredients (材料): 20g dried Frangipani, 500g pork ribs, a candied date (蜜枣), ginger (姜), salt

* Wash the frangipani.

* Cut the pork ribs into pieces and wash them to remove blood stains (血迹).

* Put some cold water, ginger, a candied date, and the Frangipani into a pot.

* Bring the water to the boil and then cook it for one hour

* Add a little salt.

Chrysanthemums and Wax Gourd Soup (菊花冬瓜汤)（Sweet）

Ingredients: 500g wax gourd, 40g brown sugar, 3 to 5 white chrysanthemums

* Peel the wax gourd.

* Put the wax gourd into a pot, add some brown sugar. Mix well with a spoon or your hand and let it lie in the pot for one hour.

* Put some hot water into the pot and then cook it for 20 minutes.

* Add some chrysanthemums. Chrysanthemums are not put inside until the soup is ready, so that they keep their fragrance (香味).

* Add more sugar if you have a sweet tooth.

26．Why does Guangdong have a long tradition of making flowers into food?

参考答案

1．B

【详解】

句意：Betty经常练习口语以提高她的汉语水平。

考查非谓语动词。improve“提高”，根据空前的“Betty practises speaking more often”和空后的“her Chinese”可知，应该是练习口语以提高她的汉语水平，用动词不定式作目的状语，故选B。

2．A

【详解】

句意：彼得昨天晚上八点钟在体育场为运动员加油。

考查过去进行时。cheer加油，欢呼。根据题干中的“at eight o’clock yesterday evening”以及句意可知，句子为过去进行时。过去进行时结构为“was/were + doing”。题干主语为“Peter”，所以be动词为was。故选A。

3．B

【详解】

句意：——蒂姆告诉你他明天会来吗？——不，他没有。但如果他来，我会打电话给你。

考查宾语从句、条件状语从句。空格1是if引导的宾语从句，遵循“主现从不限”的原则，根据tomorrow可知用一般将来时，排除C和D；空格2是if引导条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”的原则，可知用一般现在时，排除A。故选B。

4．C

【详解】

句意：——这是一个多么重要的会议啊！——是的，我们不会错过的。
考查what感叹句。what感叹句结构：what+a/an+形容词+单数可数名词+主语+谓语。meeting是一个单数可数名词，故选C。

5．A

【详解】

句意：这些苹果比以前便宜多了。我想买一些。
考查比较级用法。cheap“便宜的”，是形容词；cheaply“便宜地”，是副词；much“非常”，可修饰比较级；less“较少的”，是否定的含义。根据“These apples are...than before. I’d like to buy some.”可知此处是指比以前便宜多了，要用形容词比较级，故选A。

6．A

【详解】

句意：——你多久锻炼一次？——一天一次。
考查特殊疑问词。How often do you take exercise你多久锻炼一次；How long do you exercise every time你每次锻炼多长时间；Where do you often take exercise你经常在哪里锻炼；Who do you often take exercise with你经常和谁一起锻炼。根据“Once a day.”可知问的是频率，how often“多久一次”，符合语境，故选A。

7．B

【详解】

句意：——你能告诉我我怎样才能成为一个更环保的人吗？——从小事做起，比如离开房间时关灯。

考查宾语从句。tell后跟双宾语，所以空处是宾语从句，从句用陈述句语序，排除A、D；根据答语“Just do it from small things, such as turning off the light when you leave the room.”可知，空处应是询问方式方法，且与环保有关，应用how引导。故选B。

8．B

【详解】

句意：选出含有画线部分发音为/u:/的单词。
考查语音知识。nervous[’nɜːvəs]紧张的；soup[suːp]汤；loud[laʊd]大声的；touch[tʌtʃ]触摸。根据所给单词音标可知只有B选项符合，故选B。

9．A

【详解】

句意：有多少学生要参加运动会？

考查一般将来时和短语辨析。take part in参加；take part错误搭配；join加入（组织）；to join in参加。根据“will do sth.”可知，此空用动词原形；再者根据“the sports meeting”可知，是参加运动会，因此“take part in”符合句意。故选A。

10．C

【详解】

句意：——你猜怎么着？就连我们班的尖子生露西也在考试中出错了。——她的确是出错了。但没有人是完美的。

考查形容词辨析。possible可能的；natural自然的；perfect完美的；normal正常的。根据前句“So she did.”语境可知，后句应是说：没有人是完美的。故选C。

11．D

【详解】

句意：去年他的哥哥入党了。

考查动词。take part in参加，表示参加某种活动；join加入，表示加入某种组织，成为其中一员。根据宾语“the Party”可知，此处表示入党，成为一名党员，用动词join，根据“last year”可知，此处用一般过去时，故选D。

12．D

【详解】

句意：——你最近生意怎么样？病毒爆发后，许多商店关闭了。——对。情况越来越糟。但我们仍然希望事情会变得更好。
考查名词辨析。resolution决心；promise承诺；fact事实；hope希望。根据“Yes. It is getting worse. But we still live in...that things might be better.”可知此处是指希望事情会变得更好。故选D。

考查副词辨析。usually通常；never从不；sometimes有时；hardly几乎不。根据答句“No. I get up early...”可知，我起得早，通常准时到学校。故选A。

14．C

【详解】

句意：——你认为比尔会喜欢这个礼物吗？——他当然会喜欢。这是他最喜欢的书。
