【答案】B
【详解】句意：汤姆在睡觉，吉姆在帮妈妈做晚饭。
考查连词词义辨析。until直到；while当……时；before在……之前；after在……之后。根据空前的“Tom is sleeping”及空后的“Jim is helping his mum make dinner”的句意可知，此处主从句动作同时发生，应用while引导时间状语从句。故选B。

【答案】C
【详解】句意：——你决定什么时候离开了吗？——是的，明天早上。
考查非谓语动词。宾语从句应用陈述语序，故排除A项和B项；此处指将来发生的事情，故排除D项；when to leave为“疑问词+不定式”结构，作宾语。故选C。

A．don’t allow B．aren’t allowed
C．won’t allow D．didn’t allow
【答案】B
【详解】句意：飞行中，乘客不能使用手机。

考查连词与一般过去时。until直到……为止；and并且；or或者。not…until…直到……才……，根据“he finished reading the magazine”可知，时间状语从句用的是一般过去时，故主句也要用一般过去时，第一空使用didn’t。故选C。
9．—Excuse me, ________ is it from here to the city square
—It’s about ten minutes by bus.
A．how often B．how long C．how far D．How
【答案】C
【详解】句意：——打扰一下，从这儿到城市广场有多远？——坐公共汽车大约十分钟。
考查特殊疑问句。how often多久一次；how long多长时间；how far多远；How如何。根据“It’s about ten minutes by bus.”可知，问句应该是问距离。故选C。
10．—Mike, do you know where Taiwan is

【详解】句意：他们花了20多亿美元来完成这个项目。
考查数词的用法。billion与of连用时，应用复数形式，表示概数；若前有基数词修饰，则用单数形式，表示确数。根据“It cost them more than … dollars to complete the project.”可知，此处表示“20亿美元”。故选A。

13．It will ________ be cold tomorrow. You’d better take a sweater.
A．probably B．possible C．usually D．necessary
【答案】A
【详解】句意：明天可能会很冷。你最好带一件毛衣。

A．How; more B．How much; larger C．What; larger D．How many; more

【详解】句意：——昆明的人口是多少？——超过800万。它比曲靖的人口多多了。
考查特殊疑问句及形容词。how many多少；what什么；how much多少；more更多；larger更大。根据“is the population of Kunming”可知，此处用询问人口的固定句式：what’s the population of...，修饰人口的多少用large，故选C。
15．— Sorry, Mr. Brown. I ________ my homework at home yesterday.
— It doesn’t matter! Don’t ________ to bring it tomorrow.
A．leave; forget B．left; forgot
C．left; forget D．forgot; forgot
【答案】C
【详解】句意：——对不起，布朗老师。昨天我把作业忘在家里了。——没关系！明天别忘了带来。
考查动词辨析和祈使句。leave落，离开，过去式是left；forget忘记，过去式是forgot。根据“...my homework at home”可知，第一空表示“把作业落在家里了”，forget后不能加地点，所以第一空用leave。根据“yesterday”可知，第一空应填过去式left，排除A和D选项。第二空处是提醒不要忘记带作业，用forget to do sth“忘记去做某事”，don’t+动词原形是祈使句的否定形式。故选C。

Do you ever have problems getting all your work done If you do, you should try the Pomodoro Technique.
“Pomodoro” means “tomato” in Italian. The Pomodoro Technique was created by an Italian, Francisco Cirillo, who used a tomato clock to count time when he was studying. Here is how the technique works:
Write down what you are going to do. Get a timer. Study for 25 minutes. This is called one “pomodoro.” Set a timer.
Stop studying when the timer goes off. Take a five-minute break. Start another pomodoro. After four pomodoros, take a longer break, 15 to 30 minutes.
Note: You should set a timer not only for the pomodoros but for the breaks as well. That way, you won’t stop for too long. Note: The breaks help you focus and not feel tired.
So, next time you are learning for a test or doing homework, give the Pomodoro Technique a try.

All her life, Emily had been fighting for women’s rights. She was a suffragette, part of a group of women who started working together in 1903 to 46 equal rights for women. When Emily was young, she and all the other women in the UK were not allowed to vote, go to university or work in the same jobs as men. In the event of a divorce②, the husband took the children. In poor villages, wives were 47 sold in the market.
The suffragettes wanted to 48 all this. More than a thousand were arrested③, but they did not stop. They went on hunger strike in prison to fight against the unfair treatment. In 1928, women in the UK finally got the right to vote and then more and more women started to go to university and get jobs. In 1952, female teachers were given the right to earn the same money as male teachers. The situation has been 49 since the suffragettes’ time but many people say that men and women are still not equal in society. 50 , now in the UK, men earn 20 per cent more than women for the same work. If you are a male manager, your chance of being promoted④ is 40 per cent higher than a female manager’s. That’s why many people are still fighting for equal rights for women in the UK.

Whenever the house gets quiet, Mrs. Smith knows just where to find her 6-year-old daughter Maria: lost in the world of stories.
“I like to read every time of the day,” said Maria, a student at Creel Elementary School in Australia.
Maria’s headmaster, Mrs. White, wants e 51 of her 850 students and their families to learn the love of reading this year. She wants reading at home to become an activity of choice in every family, even during holiday breaks. “I truly realize reading should be an important part of everyone’s life, and n 52 should stop it.” said Mrs. White.
“The aim we want most of all is to help children understand they can enjoy reading, as well as p 53 their skills,” said Hannas, an education researcher. He suggested parents take their children to the library and allow them to pick out books that i 54 them.
Each night, students take home two books to read with their parents or other family members. They have to r 55 the books the next day with a signed note from their parents showing that the books were read, and have passing tests that check how well they understand the books.
“We’re trying to get parents into the h 56 of reading with their kids.” said the headmaster. “Nothing is better than sitting on a sofa with your child and reading and laughing.”
T 57 books, Mrs. Smith, a parent, said she’s able to give her two daughters more experiences than she could.

D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题) (12 分)
Dear Mrs Wu, I love video games and I develop my own games. It’s my favourite hobby. My parents were very encouraging at first. The day I started secondary school, they changed their mind. They now suggest that I give up video games altogether because study should be my priority (优先考虑的事项). What’s more, they don’t even allow me to go out with my friends at night. Every time they do that, I act like I don’t care. But in fact, I am quite angry and upset because they simply have no respect for me and my needs. What can I do Sincerely yours, Jason
Dear Jason,
You must be feeling very stressed these days. I’m glad you wrote to me for help. However, you should keep calm and talk to your parents about the benefits of your hobby. I can see why your parents are against video-gaming—it was seen as a useless pastime (娱乐活动) back in the time when your parents were young. The best idea may be to tell them that it is good training for new tech jobs like being a video game developer or drone photographer (无人机摄影师). Also, it is a good way to have a rest after a long school day. Try pointing out real-life examples to them to support your idea. Meanwhile, you should also make sure your hobby doesn’t get in the way of your school performance. As for your parents’ not allowing you to go out with your friends, it may be a good idea to open up to them about your private life. For example, you can ________. This may help them change their mind. Meanwhile, show them you are a responsible person who understands their worries, and will not let them down. If you can do this, I don’t believe they will be so hard on you. Remember, you mustn’t lose your cool, as that would be immature (不成熟的). Cheers! Mrs Wu

A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案)(12 分)
Do you ever have problems getting all your work done If you do, you should try the Pomodoro Technique.
“Pomodoro” means “tomato” in Italian. The Pomodoro Technique was created by an Italian, Francisco Cirillo, who used a tomato clock to count time when he was studying. Here is how the technique works:
Write down what you are going to do. Get a timer. Study for 25 minutes. This is called one “pomodoro.” Set a timer.
Stop studying when the timer goes off. Take a five-minute break. Note: You should set a timer not only for the pomodoros but for the breaks as well. That way, you won’t stop for too long. Start another pomodoro. After four pomodoros, take a longer break, 15 to 30 minutes. Note: The breaks help you focus and not feel tired.
So, next time you are learning for a test or doing homework, give the Pomodoro Technique a try.
It may be the answer you need for studying smarter!

On 4 June 1913, a woman called Emily Davison① went to a horse race, threw herself under the king’s horse and later died from her injuries. A 45 which said “Votes for women” was found in her pocket. All her life, Emily had been fighting for women’s rights. She was a suffragette, part of a group of women who started working together in 1903 to 46 equal rights for women. When Emily was young, she and all the other women in the UK were not allowed to vote, go to university or work in the same jobs as men. In the event of a divorce②, the husband took the children. In poor villages, wives were 47 sold in the market.
The suffragettes wanted to 48 all this. More than a thousand were arrested③, but they did not stop. They went on hunger strike in prison to fight against the unfair treatment. In 1928, women in the UK finally got the right to vote and then more and more women started to go to university and get jobs. In 1952, female teachers were given the right to earn the same money as male teachers. The situation has been 49 since the suffragettes’ time but many people say that men and women are still not equal in society. 50 , now in the UK, men earn 20 per cent more than women for the same work. If you are a male manager, your chance of being promoted④ is 40 per cent higher than a female manager’s. That’s why many people are still fighting for equal rights for women in the UK.

Whenever the house gets quiet, Mrs. Smith knows just where to find her 6-year-old daughter Maria: lost in the world of stories.
“I like to read every time of the day,” said Maria, a student at Creel Elementary School in Australia.
Maria’s headmaster, Mrs. White, wants e 51 of her 850 students and their families to learn the love of reading this year. She wants reading at home to become an activity of choice in every family, even during holiday breaks. “I truly realize reading should be an important part of everyone’s life, and n 52 should stop it.” said Mrs. White.
“The aim we want most of all is to help children understand they can enjoy reading, as well as p 53 their skills,” said Hannas, an education researcher. He suggested parents take their children to the library and allow them to pick out books that i 54 them.
Each night, students take home two books to read with their parents or other family members. They have to r 55 the books the next day with a signed note from their parents showing that the books were read, and have passing tests that check how well they understand the books.
“We’re trying to get parents into the h 56 of reading with their kids.” said the headmaster. “Nothing is better than sitting on a sofa with your child and reading and laughing.”
T 57 books, Mrs. Smith, a parent, said she’s able to give her two daughters more experiences than she could.
“I think reading opens all the doors and creates imaginations in children,” she said, “I think if you read well, you can succeed in anything in life.”
