8、alled the Watermelon Thump.The event includes food, music and a parade. But what sets this watermelon festival apart from others is the World Championship Seed Spitting(吐西瓜籽)Contest.Only about 5,500 people live in Luling. But since 1954, the population has swelled on the last weekend in June. Now, t

9、ens of thousands of people come from all around to attend the fourday festival.“The seedspitting crowds get into it，” said Edgar Camacho, who is father to four seedspitting champions. “Parents from Luling take it seriously.”The competition is limited to about 50 kids and 50 adults. The kids are divi

10、ded into four age groups. For the individual(个人的)competition, everyone gets two spits, and judges record the better one.For the team event, judges take the sum of four spits from four participants.“Its really fun and exciting，” said Victoria Camacho, 14.“The crowd is all watching you and cheering fo

11、r you, and your family is there.” About 200 people watch. “Its really a lot of pressure because you dont want to mess up.”Victoria won her age group four years ago with a spit of 36 feet. Two years ago, her brother AJ., 17, broke the youth record in Luling when he spat a seed 58 feet 9 inches. Thats

12、 more than half the length of a basketball court. (The adult seedspitting world record, set in 1989, is 68 feet 9 inches.)“Its fun to come out and compete every year. Its just a really competitive spirit that all the families have，” said AJ., who has won the seedspitting contest about 10 times.The C

15、ng小镇每年举办一次西瓜节，该节日的最特别之处在于其吐西瓜籽比赛。16A词义猜测题。根据画线词前后句可知，自1954年开始，Luling小镇的人口在六月最后的那个周末不断增加。而根据该段的内容可知，小镇的常住人口仅有5, 500人，因为当地举办的西瓜节吸引来自世界各地的游客，因此人口在节日期间急剧增加。故画线词swelled的意思是“增加”。故选A项。17D推理判断题。根据Victoria在第六段中说的“Its really fun and exciting”和“Its really a lot of pressure”可知，她认为比赛既刺激又紧张。故选D项。18B推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中

16、“The Camachos have no plans to give up their competitive spitting anytime soon.”以及Camacho的家庭成员之一Davis在最后一段中说的“Even if I dont live in Texas”和“Ill make the yearly journey to Luling.”可知，吐西瓜籽比赛一年举行一次。故选B项。BAfter disappearing for over 19 years, measles (麻疹) is making a comeback in America.Since January 2

17、019, the disease has infected more than 700 people, mostly small children, and the number seems to be increasing daily.Measles is an infectious disease that typically begins with a high fever, cough, runny nose, and red, watery eyes.

18、 to four days after the symptoms start, the person breaks out into a rash (皮疹) that begins on the face at the hairline and then spreads to the neck and the rest of the body.In healthy people, the recovery, which takes between two to three weeks, starts soon after the rash begins. However, for about

19、40 percent of patientsmainly kids under the age of five or older adultsthe disease often leads to deadly pneumonia (肺炎), which, if left untreated, could result in death.The recent outbreak is thought to have been caused by travelers picking up the virus in a country where the disease is still existi

In New York, it was carried back by someone who had recently visited Israel, which is currently undergoing a significant measles, while in Washington, “patient zero” was infected by a type that is currently circulating in Europe.To li

21、mit the spread of the disease before it gets out of hand, US health officials are attempting to educate communities with high rates of unvaccinated children. They are also urging adults to consult with their physicians and get injected if considered necessary by the doctor.Hopefully, health official

22、s worldwide will be able to convince parents that vaccinating their children will protect, not harm, them.()19.What is the third paragraph mainly about?AThe symptoms of measles.BThe possible results of measles.CThe causes of measles.DThe cures for measles()20.Why did some people develop measles in A

23、merica?ABecause it is too hot this year.BBecause people are too stressed.CBecause pollution is too severe.DBecause the virus was taken to America.()21.What do we know about measles?AIt never disappeared in America.BIt starts with a rash.CIt is mild to everyone.DIt is possible to limit its spread.()2

24、2.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?AHealth.BEducation.CScience.DEntertainment.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍麻疹在历史上带来的危害，以及为什么会发生这样的情况。19B主旨大意题。通读第三段可知，对于健康的人来说，皮疹开始后不久就会开始恢复，这需要两到三周的时间。然而，大约40%的患者主要是5岁以下的儿童或老年人患有肺炎，如果不及时治疗，可能会导致死亡。由此可见，第三段讲述的是麻疹所产生的可能结果。故选B项。20D细节理解题。根据第四段“The recent outbre

25、ak is thought to have been caused by travelers picking up the virus in a country where the disease is still existing and exposing it to an unvaccinated (未接种的) community in the US.”可知，美国有些人会患上麻疹是因为病毒被带到美国。故选D项。21D细节理解题。根据第五段“To limit the spread of the disease before it gets out of hand, US health off

26、icials are attempting to educate communities with high rates of unvaccinated children.”可知，限制麻疹的传播是可能的。故选D项。短语get out of hand 意为“失控；无法控制。”22A题材来源题。本文主要谈到的是关于麻疹给人带来的危害，最后一段提到，希望世界各地的卫生官员能够说服父母，给孩子接种疫苗将保护他们，而不是伤害他们。由此可知，这篇文章最有可能出现在报纸的健康栏目。故选A项。CA small supermarket is decorated with a lot of red lantern

27、s. There are piles of red envelopes on sale, for filling with cash and handing out as gifts. Such festive trappings can be seen everywhere in China in the buildup to the Lunar New Year.

29、 zodiac(生肖). America, Canada and New Zealand have issued commemorative stamps for the Year of the Rooster. Last year New York City made the Lunar New Year a school holiday for the first time.The spread of the Spring Festival, as China calls it, is partly due to recent emigration(移民) from China: 9.5

30、million Chinese people have moved abroad since 1978, many of whom are far richer than earlier waves of migrants. It also reflects the wealth and ambitions of Chinas new middle class: festivities in other countries are partly aimed at the 6 million Chinese who are expected to spend their week long ho

31、liday abroad this year.Its hoped that the festival will promote Chinas cultural “soft power” abroad.So related events are welcomed, such as a display this year of martial arts in Cyprus and a traditional Chinese templefair in Harare, Zimbabwe. More and more Chinese are glad to see foreigners enjoy s

32、uch festivities.

35、d lion dances in Chinatowns over the world have helped make Chinas the most famous.”可知，广为人知的庆祝方式是舞龙和舞狮。故选A项。24D推理判断题。由第三段“It also reflects the wealth and ambitions of Chinas new middle class: festivities in other countries are partly aimed at the 6 million Chinese who are expected to spend their wee

36、k long holiday abroad this year.”可知，这也反映了中国新中产阶级的财富和雄心，其他国家的节日活动部分是针对预计今年将在海外度过一周长假的600万中国人。因此一些国家庆祝中国春节是针对那些打算去国外度假的中国新中产阶级。故选D项。25C主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了中国春节日益成为一个全球性的节日， C项最能概括文意。故选C项。第二节七选五(10分)The “Chong Yang Festival” is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which is also known as

60、5._ the festival is interesting.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了墨西哥的一个名叫the Agricultural Feast的节日，包括这个节日的由来，节日的庆祝方式以及节日的特点。46is考查时态。句意为：农业盛宴节在独立日之后到来，它不是一个全球性的节日。根据前面的节日的降临用falls可知，属于客观事实应用第三人称单数。故此处要填is。47religious考查形容词。句意： 因宗教起源问题，只有墨西哥的基督教徒盼望这个节日的到来。origin是名词，其前应用形容词修饰。故填religious。48that考查固定句型。句意：上帝是如此的生气，以至

61、于显灵淹掉了所有的庄稼。故填that。49crops考查名词。此处指淹没了他们所有庄稼，需用复数形式crops。50to see考查非谓语动词。set off to do sth.意为“动身去做某事”。此处是不定式作目的状语。故填to see。51belief考查名词。句意：为消除悲伤，加强人们对上帝的信仰，人们庆祝这一节日。of后指的是对上帝的信仰，需填名词。故填belief。52energetically考查副词。根据文章大意，结合空白处前的 “have fun with each other” 和后面的 “all night long”可知，人们整晚都很开心，说明他们“精力充沛的”，因为

62、是修饰前面的动词have fun。故填energetically。53dressing考查非谓语动词。when引导的时间状语从句中谓语动词是reads，故dress需用非谓语动词；再根据dress后的“herself in”可知，此处是短语“dress oneself in”而并不是“be dressed in”，此处表示主动，故用现在分词dressing作后置定语。54as考查介词。句意：这是一种习惯，把公鸡头送给他作为一种奖励。短语give sb.sth. as意为“送给某人某物作为”。故填as。55but考查连词。句意：很明显这个故事可能不真实，但是这个节日是很有趣的。前后句是转折关系。

63、故填but。第五部分写作(25分)第一节单词拼写(5题，共5分)56Studying _(氛围) plays a very important role.57The _(教堂), which was built in 1163, is an artistic treasure.58He owed the first _(收获) of rice to the sun goddess.59Social _(媒体) seems to have changed the rules of the communication.60After I went to college, I received _(
