It asked teachers that they should prevent pupils from using “street language and text style”， adding, “Most answers require formal expression of language.”“Many concerns were expressed by examiners about basic errors, often appearing in the work of clearly able students，”the report continued.It added that the use of street and text language “appeared with surprisingly regularity in the work of students who clearly desired a higher grade”“Most answers require formal expression but even when an informal style is appropriate students should know the examination context and, in particular, should not use street language and text style，” it said.There is rising concern about pupils writing skills, especially among boys. National test results for 11yearold boys writing standards had fallen this year. Only 55 percent reached the level expected of an 11yearold by the time they left primary school, the results showed.Many educationalists are now arguing that teachers should also think of ways of improving writing standards.The report said spelling was “in general inconsistent (不一致)” and “variety of vocabulary and of sentence structure is often limited”. It went on，“Punctuation (标点符号) errors continue to be widespread.”However, it added，“Some examiners felt that this year they had met an improvement in the whole structure of students writing.” 25What does the passage mainly talk about?AThe streetculture language is being examined in English exams.BStreet language is appearing in the standard English exams.CThe English say no to the streetculture language in daily life.DWhat the streetculture language is in England.解析：选B主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是文章第一段可知，本文主要介绍了街头语言出现在英语考试中这一现象，故答案选B。26The underlined word “appropriate” in Paragraph 5 means “_”AfortableBpossibleCacceptable Dvaluable解析：选C词义猜测题。画线词前半句意为“大多数答案需要用规范的表达”，根据but可知此处表示转折，本句应理解为“非正式的形式也是可以接受的”，故appropriate在此处与acceptable意义相近，故选C。27What problems concerned examiners?ASmall mistakes in spelling and punctuation.BLimited vocabulary of boy pupils.CTeachers teaching writing skills.DPoor sentence structure and errors in spelling and standard English.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，mistakes in standard English是考试专家所担心的；根据倒数第二段内容可知，poor sentence structure和errors in spelling也是专家所担心的，故答案选D。C(2018湖北省鄂西北联考)A school where 60% of pupils speak English as a second language has equipped electronic translators for every child so they can municate with teachers. Manor Park Primary in Birmingham, which has 384 pupils, is the first school in Britain to provide translators for all of its children and to make the tools a part of every lesson.The technology can allow teachers to type messages to pupils which are then translated into the 19 native tongues of children, with no English. Another 11 languages are spoken by pupils who have some English. In Britain, with figures showing that one in six primary pupils speaks a different language at home double the number ten years ago the technology could soon bee popular in many more schools.Talking Tutor can translate English into many languages including Polish, Urdu and Chinese. The teacher types a message into a puter and it then reads the message out to the pupils in their native tongues. The pupils type the answer which is read to the teacher by Talking Tutor. Headmaster Jason Smith said the software had transformed his school and given staff the opportunity to municate with children. The school pays 700 a year for the software. The software, developed by EMAS UK, cost more than 2.5 million to produce.Dawn Holt, a teacher at the school, admitted she had struggled in the past to municate with pupils who had recently arrived in Britain. But some say giving pupils the translators could be “damaging and dangerous”“Surely it would be better to give all these teenagers an intensive course in English，” said Nick Seaton, a father.“My boy says teachers are spending more time using the puter than teaching. He came home last week and said he felt pushed aside.”语篇解读：学校里60%的学生的母语不是英语，教师怎么上课、怎么和学生交流呢？一种新发明的电脑软件能帮助解决这个问题。28What is the name of the electronic translator?ATalking Tutor. BEMAS UK.CNick Seaton. DDawn Holt.解析：选A细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知，该软件的名称为Talking Tutor。29Manor Park Primary decided to use electronic translators in order to _.Ahelp the pupils to learn English well in a short timeBmake the teachers and the students understand each otherClet the students master foreign languages quicklyDattract more and more pupils to the school解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句可知，该校配备这个软件的目的是帮助师生更好地交流。30From the text we can infer that _.AEMAS UK cant make a lot of money from the softwareBmore and more pupils begin to choose to study in BritainCthere are many schools which have already used the softwareDthe teachers had no difficulty talking with the students before解析：选B推理判断题。根据第二段第三句可知，在英国，有六分之一的小学生的母语不是英语，这一比例是十年前的两倍。由此可以推知，越来越多的国外的小学生选择到英国去上学。31Why do some people say giving pupils the translators could be “damaging and dangerous”？ABecause the students will pay more money to the school.BBecause the students wont get enough care from the teachers.CBecause the students cant use the translators properly.DBecause the students wont speak to the teachers any more.解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后两句可知，其原因在于这会导致老师把过多的时间用在电脑操作上，学生感觉老师不够关心自己。DMany fruits and vegetables would disappear from grocery store shelves if it werent for honeybees.Almonds (扁桃仁), for example, are a 2.5 billion industry in California, and almond growers depend on honeybees to pollinate (授粉) the crop.No honeybees would mean no almonds.Many berries (like blackberries and strawberries) need bees, as do vegetables like cucumbers and squash.And dont forget tree crops like apples, oranges and peaches.Watermelon and cantaloupes depend on bees, too.In fact, approximately 15 percent of the food Americans eat es directly from honeybee pollination.Another 15 percent es from animals that eat foods that bees pollinate.In other words, close to a third of the food that Americans eat currently requires honeybee pollination.Honeybee pollination is so important that bee farmers actually truck their bees from orchard (果园) to orchard and from farm to farm to help pollinate crops.A honeybee starts the honey making process by visiting a flower.With luck, the flower contains nectar (花蜜), and the bee sucks some of the nectar up with a little straw built into its mouth.Most flower nectars are like sugar water; there is a little sugar mixed with water.Nectars can contain other beneficial substances as well.To make honey, two things happen.The first thing uses enzymes (酶)One enzyme that bees produce turns the sucrose (蔗糖) in the nectar into glucose (葡萄糖) and fructose (果糖)Another enzyme turns some of the glucose into an acid and hydrogen peroxide (过氧化氢)By making honey acidic, it kills any bacteria that get into the honey.The second thing uses evaporation (蒸发) to get rid of the extra water.Most of the moisture has to be evaporated, so that honey is only about 18 percent water.Bees evaporate the extra water by putting little drops of nectar in the hive and fanning it with their wings.Honey is a very stable food.It naturally resists molds (霉菌), fungi (真菌) and other bacteria, allowing it to last for years without refrigeration.语篇解读：蜜蜂在我们的生活中发挥着很重要的作用，如果没有蜜蜂，也就没有我们食用的很多蔬菜和水果。本文介绍了蜜蜂的重要性及蜜蜂如果授粉、如何制造蜂蜜等。32Bees are always trucked between different places in order to _.Alay eggs in all the orchards and farmsBmate with bees living different zonesChelp bee farmers deal with harmful insectsDpollinate flowers or plants grown in different places解析： 选D细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Honeybee pollination is so important that .farm to farm to help pollinate crops.”可知，蜜蜂授粉的重要性使得蜂农们带着它们在不同的地方给农作物授粉。33How does a honeybee suck the nectar from flowers?AThrough a little straw built into its mouth.BWith the help of the bee farmer.CBy drinking the water that contains nectar.DBy fanning it with the wings.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the bee sucks some of the nectar up with a little straw built into its mouth”可知选A项。34Which one is the way mentioned in the passage to make honey?ATo evaporate most of the moisture in the nectar.BTo kill all the bacteria in the nectar.CTo expose it to sunlight for some time.DTo mix the nectar with some sugar.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The second thing uses evaporation (蒸发) to get rid of the extra water.Most of the moisture has to be evaporated, so that honey is only about 18 percent water.”可知，利用蒸发的方法将花蜜中的水分去除是其中一个方法。35Why honey can be kept for a long time without being cooled?ABecause there is no bacteria in it.BBecause it can stand bad weather conditions.CBecause it protects itself against bacteria naturally.DBecause it is wellpreserved in containers.解析：选C细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，蜂蜜天然可以抵抗霉菌、真菌和其他的细菌，所以不用冰箱也可以存放多年。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Learning a language can be difficult, especially for adults.
