Large numbers of insects arebreeding(繁殖) in the polluted waterway. Officials say the insects land on the Taj Mahal and leave poop on its white stone walls. The insects waste is beginning to turn the walls green.Workers first discovered the problem last year. Aflyknown as thegenusGeoldichironomus is the reason for all the waste on the wall. Workers try to remove that, but experts fear heavy cleaning could damage the artwork from the wall in the Taj Mahal.Environmentalist D.K. Joshi says the way to stop this new threat is to save the dying river. “Industrial waste, solid waste, all this pours into the river. Millions of dollars have been spent to clean the river, but nothing has happened,” he added. Whats more, ashes (骨灰) from burnt human remains are part of the problem. For 200 years, people have set fire to dead bodies near the Taj Mahal. Ash from the funeral (葬礼的) ceremonies is the main source of food for the insects.Vikram also worries about the large amount of tourism. “So much is the amount of dirt that it creates; these are the problems of tourism. The tourists, they like to touch the surfaces. For that we are trying to provide some kind of separators”.We do believe cleaning the Yamuna River is possible with a short-term program. “Stop the waste from going into the river, improve its flow. It is not difficult,” Vikram said. He hopes this latest threat to the Taj Mahal from insects will get the attention of city officials. He hopes it will get them to clean the river.（1）Whats the new threat to the Tji Mahal? A . The Yamuna River is very dirty.B . Some white stones walls turn green.C . Many insects live in Tji Mahal and The Yamuna River.D . The insects leave poop on the stones.（2）What “that” in the 3rd paragraph refers to? A . The workers.B . The waste.C . The wall.D . The fly.（3）Which is not a helpful solution to this problem? A . cut down the waste that poured into the river.B . makes the flow of the river improved.C . Ask more workers to remove the waste of the Taj Mahal.D . Reduce the burning of the human bodies（4）What does Joshi suggest? A . City officials should ignore the insects.B . Workers should help clean the Taj Mahal.C . Fires should be set to kill some insects.D . People should give up the tradition of burning the dead.13. （8分） Mr. Brown was going away for a week.

Here is some of his advice to young people:“One suggestion Id like to give you is that its important to do what you like without fear of failure. And the process（过程）of working toward your dreams matters more than the results. Young people should take chances to show off talents. Take competitions like this one as an example: If you are afraid to fail, youll never get the chance to stand on the stage and make a speech. Above all, its most important to take part.Another suggestion I want to give you is to read books. It is not easy to keep reading every day. For me, it is much more difficult and challenging to keep reading and taking notes every day than it is to walk 10,000 steps.”In his speech, Yu also shared his view on life. He chose a different life rather than a more successful one. He uses the famous lines of American poet Robert Frost (18741963) to make his point:“Two roads diverged (分叉) in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.”Yu pointed out, “Your happiness should not be what others think you should run after, but instead you should decide what it is. It is you who should make choices for your own life.”Yu Minhongs speech to young peopleHis advice He thinks the process is more _than results, so young people should take chances to show off their_. He also suggests that we should read books. Its _to keep reading all the time.His views on life Yu prefers a different life _a more successful one. He says that your happiness should be decided by _instead of what others think.七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18. （5分）你的好朋友Tom今天向你倾诉，他的妈妈管他太多。不仅管他学习，而且还要求他做完作业整理书桌，起床后整理床铺，有时甚至要他理发，洗澡等等。他很苦恼，不知道怎么办？请根据以下提示的要求，给Tom写一封信帮他解决困难。 提示内容：1）和妈妈谈一谈不做家务的原因；2）给自己制定一个计划，管理自己；3）如果妈妈过分担心，我们将会要求：1）语言表达要准确、语法要正确、上下文要连贯。2）80-100词左右。第 13 页 共 13 页参考答案一、 单选题 (共10题；共20分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、二、 完形填空 (共1题；共12分)11-1、三、 阅读理解 (共3题；共26分)12-1、12-2、12-3、12-4、13-1、13-2、13-3、13-4、14-1、14-2、14-3、14-4、14-5、四、 用单词的正确形式完成句子 (共1题；共10分)15-1、五、 单词填空 (共1题；共1分)16-1、六、 短文阅读 (共1题；共5分)17-1、七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)18-1、
