BOn December 14, 2017, we were sorry to hear that Yu Guangzhong, a famous poet died of illness in Taiwan. He was born in Nanjing in 1928. His mothers hometown is in Wujin, Changzhou. So he called himself a southern person. Later, he went to Taiwan. In 1952 he graduated from Taiwan University. Then he graduated from University of LOWA in 1959. He taught at Soochow University, Normal University, Taiwan University, and Chengchi University. He got a lot of prizes in literature(文学)，such as Wu San lien Literature Prize, China Times Award, Golden Tripod, National Arts Award and all the major Awards in Taiwan. He is famous both in Taiwan and in Mainland. He was in Taiwan, but he always missed his hometown in Mainland. In one of his poems Nostalgia(乡愁), showed his feeling of homesickness. Lets enjoy his famous poem Nostalgia.Nostalgia When I was young, But later on, Nostalgia was a tiny, tiny stamp. Nostalgia was a low, low grave. Me on this side, Me on this side, Mother on the other side. And my mother inside. When I grew up, And at present, Nostalgia was a narrow boat ticket. Nostalgia becomes a shallow strait. Me on this side, Me on this side, Bride on the other side. Mainland on the other side.29. Yu wrote the poem Nostalgia because he . A. wanted to find his boat ticket B. wanted to show his love to his bride C. missed his mother in Wujin D. missed his hometown in Mainland30. From the second paragraph, we can learn about . A. Yus achievements B. Yus school life C. Yus homesickness D. Yus working time31.In the poem, stamp, ticket, grave and strait represent the poets . A. wishes for Taiwan and the Mainland B. favourite things in different times C. different feelings about homesickness D. good ideas for coming back homeC The idea of being fashionable is not a modern phenomenon(现象).Rather, it has been around for centuries, but it has only been in the modern age that fashion trends(趋势)really took off. There are many reasons for this happening, and when the reasons are all put together, it is easy to see why high fashion has become a serious industry. Many centuries ago, cloth-making was a time-consuming(耗时的)process. Once cloth was made by machine, a large amount of cloth could be produced in a short time, this brought the price of clothing down. As the price dropped, it became easier for people to buy more than a few suits of clothes. With these changes, it didnt take long for designers to begin to experiment with styles, and these styles could be sold not only to the wealthy, but to those in the middle class as well. In effect, this combination(结合)of dropping prices and the spreading out of moderate(适度的) wealth gave birth to the fashion industry we know today. Women especially were interested in trying new styles, and designers were willing to experiment with clothing to find out what would sell. In addition to this, fashion magazines began to highlight trends and spread the message about high fashion. Finally once the fashion industry became settled(稳定的)，there was no turning back. Clothing today will continue to change, and new fashion trends will be born. Quite simply, fashion is here to stay.32. When did fashion trends take off the most? A. In ancient times. B. In the modern age. C. In the last few centuries. D. None of the above.33. Which statement is true according to this article? A. High fashion is not a serious industry. B. Cloth was always made cheaply. C. The price of clothing went up with the help of the machine. D. Moderate wealth began to spread.34. Whats the main idea of this passage? A. High fashion came about when people needed more suits. B. Women try new styles only because they have more money. C. The fashion industry was born because of dropping prices and greater wealth. D. Designers today experiment much less than they did in the past.D What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt(收据)?Or is it the look on the recipients face when they receive it that decides the true value? What gift is worth the most? This Christmas I was thinking about what to give to my father: My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion(蒲公英) standing against the bright blue sky, inspired(赋予灵感)me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father. I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe. My dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that influenced my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate. Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dads face as he unwrapped those swirling(卷曲的)black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.35. The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was . A. doing shopping B. having a debate C. leaving for Wyoming D. reading a message36. The underlined word it in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by . A. the father B. the author C. Edgar Allan Poe D. William Blake37. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To show how to design images for gifts. B. To suggest making gifts from ones heart. C. To explain how computers help create gifts. D. To describe the gifts the author has received.第四部分 词汇检测(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。每空只写一词。38.

But this is not true at all. As a study shows, parents make a greater difference to their childrens school performance than the school does. Most of a childs ability is formed from home. Many of the parents dont realize how they can help their children at home. Things are as simple as making a cake. An example of helping young children with their Maths is simply planning a birthday party. They have to decide how many people to invite, how many invitations they will need, how many flowers, balloons need to be bought, and so on. Children often find that real life experiences help them to do their Maths more easily. Another way that parents can help their children with their Maths is to give them pocket money. This not only teaches them about the value of money, but they may need to use basic Maths to work out how long they will have to save to buy the special toy that they want. Reading to children at an early age can give them a good start when they start school. But parents should not stop reading to children when they do start going to school. It can help to increase their vocabulary. Providing children with the right environment can help with their education. Giving them a quiet place where they can work, read and do homework, with a good reading light and a comfortable chair and desk, is just some of these things. Parents can also help their children by providing them with some reference books(参考书)，and any other useful learning materials they might need. In a word, parents do need to take an active role in the education of their children. If parents want their children to do well at school, they must be prepared to help educate their children at home.53. Who is more important in educating children? 54. How can parents help with their childrens Maths according to the passage? 55. Do you agree with the writer? Why or why not? 第七部分 书面表达(共1题;满分20分) 同学们三年寒窗苦读，终于迎来了中考。我们该如何应对这样重要的考试呢?我校英文报刊将开展“How to Face Senior High School Entrance Examination”的征文比赛，请你根据提示内容，用英语简要描述并适当表达自己的观点。内容要点如下表:现状概述课业繁重，压力较大能力不够，容易灰心解决方法勤奋努力，改进方法认真规划，劳逸结合你的建议注意事项:1.征文须包含表格中所有要点。要求语句通顺，意思连贯; 2.表格中“你的建议”一栏须用1-2点做适当发挥; 3.词数90左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数。 How to Face Senior High School Entrance Examination The Senior High School Entrance Examination is coming.
