It is popular with women and men. Tai-chi is a good kind of exercise for old people. It is good for the body and for the mind. It is healthy and relaxing. Tai-chi is from China. It is hundreds ofyears old. Tai-chi is a soft martial art（武术）.That means it is slow and calm. There are also hard martial arts. Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a hard martial art. It is fast and dangerous. You have to be very fit and strong to do hard martial arts. In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung-fu to thirty young students, three of whom come from abroad. Shaolin Kung-fu is difficult, said Li Yu. You must practise every move many times.

C【解析】这篇短文给我们介绍了太极和少林功夫两种武术形式，太极属于“软”武术，而少林功夫属于“硬”功夫，他们都是中国历史和文化的一部分。31. 细节理解题。根据短文中Tai-chi is a soft martial art、Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a hard martial art.可知，这篇短文中提到了太极和少林功夫两种武术形式，故应选B。32. 细节理解题。根据短文第三段中In Beijing, Master Li Yu is teaching Shaolin Kung-fu to thirty young students, three of whom come from abroad.可知，李宇是教少林功夫的，故应选B。33. 推理判断题。根据短文中It is hundreds of years old.以及Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a hard martial art.可知，太极有几百年的历史，而少林功夫的历史有1500多年，因此太极的历史比少林功夫短，故C是正确的。根据Shaolin Kung-fu is difficult, said Li Yu.可知A不对；根据It is popular with women and men.可知B不对；根据Tai-chi is a soft martial art 以及You have to be very fit and strong to do hard martial arts.可知D不对。点睛：这篇短文给我们介绍了太极和少林功夫两种武术形式，太极属于“软”武术，而少林功夫属于“硬”功夫，他们都是中国历史和文化的一部分。短文内容比较容易理解，后面的题目设置以细节理解题为主，考查的是文章细节信息的理解。做题时，应根据题目所问，在短文中搜索有用信息作答。例如第3小题，这个题目是判断题，但其实我们也是从文章细节信息中寻找线索来判断，因此四个选项我们都要从文章中找到信息来印证他们是对是错。根据短文第一段It is hundreds of years old.以及第三段中Shaolin Kung-fu, for example, which has a history of over 1,500 years, is a hard martial art.可知，太极有几百年的历史，而少林功夫的历史有1500多年，因此太极的历史比少林功夫短，故C是正确的。其他三个选项也可以在短文中找到依据判断他们是错误的。BMartina looked out of the window. A robin was singing a lively song in the tree. At this time, Grandpa, who lived with the family since Grandma had died, came in. He looked at the floor as if looking for something. He said, When the robin sings. he stopped, trying to remember what he had started to say. Spring is here, Mum finished the sentence. And Im thinking of our spring cleaning, Mum suggested. Martina, you can help me, right? Martina agreed unwillingly. They cleaned the house. They cleaned upstairs, downstairs, inside, outside, until everything was clean. Then Mum pointed to Grandpas sofa and shouted. That old sofa has got to go. Well buy Grandpa a new one. It was true and Martina had to agree. The sofa was really old. As they tried to move the sofa, Grandpa stood in their way. You cant take my sofa, he shouted. Its old, Mum said. Grandpa tried to push his sofa back into place. Well buy you a new one, Mum promised. I dont want a new one, Grandpa insisted. Mum let go of the sofa. Well talk about it tonight when John gets home. John, Martinas dad, was still at work. Why dont you let us take away the sofa? Its too old!Martina asked when the family were having supper. Grandpa shook his head and said, I sat in this sofa, with your grandma right here, when I asked her to marry me. It was so long ago, but when I sit in this sofa and close my eyes I feel she is near. Its amazing, Martina thought, how Grandpa can remember things from the past. These days he forgets almost everything. The old man smiled to Martina and went on. And the night your father was born, I sat in this sofa. I was nervous when they placed the little baby into my arms. I think Im beginning to understand, Martina said. Many years later, Grandpa continued, I sat in this sofa when the doctor called and told me that your grandma was ill. I was lost without her, but the sofa gave me the comfort. I do see now, Martina looked at Grandpa. This is not just an old sofa. This sofa is more like a friend. Yes, Grandpa added. Weve got through a lot together. The whole family agreed that the living room would be boring without the old sofa.34. What is a robin?A. A bird. B. A cat. C. A fish. D. A worm.35. What was Grandpa like these days?A. Careless. B. Impatient. C. Organized. D. Forgetful.36. Who was the little baby in Paragraph 9?A. Martina. B. Martinas dad. C. Martinas mum. D. Martinas uncle.37. Whats the best title for this passage?A. Martinas wish B. A spring cleaning C. A happy family D. The old sofa【答案】34. A 35. D 36. B 37. D【解析】Martina的家里有爷爷的一个旧的沙发，她和她的妈妈在打扫卫生的时候想把它扔掉，再买个新的。但是Martina的爷爷不同意，因为这个旧沙发里有他最美好的回忆。34. 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在的句子A robin was singing a lively song in the tree.可知，robin是一个名词，它在树上唱歌，因此我们可以猜到robin指的是一种鸟。故选A。cat猫；fish鱼；worm虫子。他们不在树上或者不会唱歌。35. 细节理解题。根据短文中Its amazing, Martina thought, how Grandpa can remember things from the past. These days he forgets almost everything.可知，Martina的爷爷最近总是忘事，因此他是forgetful 健忘的。选D。36. 细节理解题。根据短文中The old man smiled to Martina and went on. And the night your father was born, I sat in this sofa. I was nervous when they placed the little baby into my arms.可知，这里Martina的爷爷在告诉她，她的爸爸出生时候的事情，因此这个小婴儿指的就是Martina的爸爸。故选B。37. 主旨大意题。这个故事讲述了Martina爷爷的沙发，虽然它很旧了，但是它却承载着Martina爷爷的很多回忆。全文都是围绕这个沙发来讲述的，而且沙发对于爷爷有着不寻常的意义，故用The old sofa作为题目是最好的，选D。点睛：这篇短文是一则记叙文，讲述了Martina爷爷的沙发的故事。文章内容比较容易理解，后面的题目设置有细节理解、词义猜测和主旨大意题。第1小题是一个猜词题，我们必须要将这个单词置于文章的具体语境中，根据它所在的这句话A robin was singing a lively song in the tree.可知，robin是一个名词指代一种事物，而且它会在树上唱歌，在选项中只有bird鸟是合适的。再如第4小题，题目要求选择最恰当的题目，文章的标题应该是能反映文章的中心思想或者概括文章大意，或者是文章的中心词。这篇短文的关键词就是Martina爷爷的沙发，它虽然很旧，但是它里面有Martina爷爷的很多回忆。故D选项最能体现文章的中心。CDear Mr Scott,I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next-door neighbor, but I have to raise a theme that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing. You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running along the fence（栅栏）that separates our two gardens. You may also have felt happy when you see your two children sitting on your grass by the fence. And you may also have noticed that my apple trees bend over the fence and seem to look down at your children with interest. It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest. And it is quite legal（合法的）for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence. But to tell you the truth, Mr Scott, I am tired of seeing your children, day after day, destroy the branches of every one of my apple trees. And it seems that a war has been fought on one side of my apple trees. Besides, I am more tired of waking up on these fine autumn mornings to find even the apples on MY side of the fence much less in number. I know this too is the work of your children, since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making when climbing one of my trees, and (as they may have told you) I drove them away. Yours sincerely, Becky Aldrin 38. What is this?A. A complaint letter. B. An invitation letter.C. A thank-you letter. D. A recommendation letter.39. Which season was it?A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter.40. What did the two children do last night?A. They sat on the grass. B. They ran along the fence.C. They destroyed the branches. D. They climbed an apple tree.41. How was Becky Aldrin when she wrote this letter?A. Polite but serious. B. Surprised but happy.C. Angry and rude. D. Tired and uninterested.42. What did Becky Aldrin wish Mr Scott to do next?A. Be kind to his neighbour B. Make friends with his children.C. Have a talk with his children. D. Grow apple trees in his garden.【答案】38. A 39. C 40. D 41. A 42. C【解析】这篇短文是Becky写给Scott的一封信，他们两个是邻居，Becky沿着他们两家之间的篱笆种了一些苹果树，但是Scott先生的两个孩子总是毁坏苹果树，所以她写信告诉Scott先生，希望他能处理一下。38. 主旨大意题。这篇短文是Becky Aldrin写给Scott先生的一封信，根据信中But to tell you the truth, Mr Scott, I am tired of seeing your children, day after day, destroy the branches of every one of my apple trees. Besides, I am more tired of waking up on these fine autumn mornings to find even the apples on MY side of the fence much less in number. I know this too is the work of your children可知，她是在向Scott先生抱怨，因为Scott先生家的孩子毁坏了她的苹果树，还偷她的苹果。因此这些一封抱怨信，故选A。39. 推理判断题。根据短文中And it is quite legal（合法的）for them to show that interest by picking all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence.可知，现在苹果树上已经结苹果了，因此应该是秋季。故选C。40. 细节理解题。根据短文的最后since last night I was woken at midnight by the noise they were making when climbing one of my trees可知，昨天晚上，Scott先生家的两个孩子爬上了Becky Aldrin的一棵苹果树，由此可知应选D。41. 推理判断题。从Becky写的这封信中的一些文字，如I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next-door neighbor, but I have to 、It is only natural that、And it is quite legal、But to tell you the truth, Mr Scott, I am tired of等等，我们可以看到她写信的语气是很委婉、有礼貌的，但同时她也严肃地提出了这个问题，故应选A，有礼貌但严肃的。B是惊奇的但开心的；C是生气的、粗鲁的；D是累的、不感兴趣的。42. 推理判断题。这封信中Becky向Scott先生抱怨了他的孩子们的所作所为，她的目的应该是希望Scott先生能和他的孩子好好的谈一谈，不要再去破坏她的苹果树了。故应选C。点睛：这篇短文是Becky写给Scott的一封信，他们两个是邻居，Becky沿着他们两家之间的篱笆种了一些苹果树，但是Scott先生的两个孩子总是毁坏苹果树，所以她写信告诉Scott先生，希望他能处理一下。文章内容贴近学生的日常生活，比较容易理解。对于这篇短文和题目来说，理解文意是次之，而最主要的是学生们在阅读的时候，能够读出作者的写作意图以及她的写作语气。后面的题目也考查了这一点，例如第4小题，问的就是Becky在写信时的感受，根据文意可知，虽然在信中Becky向Scott先生抱怨了他的孩子的不好的行为，但整篇文章Becky的语气都是很委婉的，如开头的这句话I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from your next-door neighbor, but I have to
