【语篇导读】　本文是一则寓言故事。一棵树因其丑陋的外形而受到其他树木的称赞，但也因其丑陋的外形而免遭砍伐。这个故事告知我们任何事物都有其两面性。

1．A.fond B．proud C．aware D．ashamed
解析　考查语境理解。下文中提到这些外形秀丽的树称赞外形丑陋的树，从而可推断出他们很傲慢自大，所以选用proud。be fond of “宠爱……”，be proud of“以……为骄傲”，be aware of “意识到……”， be ashamed of “对……感到惭愧”。
答案　B
2．A.short B．honest C．ugly D．strong
解析　考查上下文呼应。本题是对后置信息的考查，依据下文中反复提到的“ugly tree”可知答案为C。
答案　C
3．A.use B．fun C．sense D．joke
解析　考查动词短语。make use of“利用(以谋私利等)”，make fun of“嘲弄，取笑”，make sense of “理解，弄懂(不易理解的事物)”，make a joke of“以某事为笑柄”，且joke前要加冠词a，依据语境可知选项B符合题意。
答案　B
4．A.replied B．questioned C．thought D．shouted
解析　考查语境理解。由前面的话语和后面的laughter可以推断出其他的树喊叫着称赞丑陋的树，所以选D。
答案　D
5．A.sad B．relaxed C．nervous D．excited
解析　考查语境理解。由于受到其他的树的称赞，丑陋的树感到很难过，所以选A。
答案　A
6．A.for B．with C．towards D．against
解析　考查介词的用法。依据语境可知丑陋的树从没有提高声音进行抵制，against“反对，抵制”，故答案为D。
答案　D
7．A.How B．What C．Why D．When
解析　考查语境理解。依据上下文可知丑陋的树发生了这样的疑问“为什么上帝会这样对我呢？”，所以选C。
答案　C
8．A.shade B．room C．wood D．water
解析　考查生活常识。树木可以为旅行者供应树荫也可以让鸟儿在其树干上筑巢，此处表示丑陋的树认为自己既不能为旅行者供应树荫也不能让鸟儿在其树干上筑巢，所以选A。
答案　A
9．A.Somebody B．Anybody C．Nobody D．Everybody
解析　考查不定代词的用法。依据上文中的语境可以看出丑陋的树觉得自己一无是处，没有人需要他，所以选C。
答案　C
10．A.guest B．visitor C．traveller D．woodcutter
解析　考查上下文呼应。本题是对后置信息的考查，接下来故事围围着伐木工砍伐树木开放，所以答案为D。
答案　D
11．A.cut up B．picked up C．set up D．gave up
解析　考查动词短语辨析。cut up“切碎”，pick up“举起，拿起”， set up “设置，设立”，give up“放弃，抛弃”，依据语境可知此处表示拿起斧头砍树，故答案为B。
答案　B
12．A.fall B．stand C．fight D．escape
解析　考查语境理解。语境表示树被砍倒了，所以选A。
答案　A
13．A.car B．ash C．ground D．stove
解析　考查语境理解。树木被伐木工用斧头砍倒在地，所以选C。
答案　C
14．A.saw B．noticed C．watched D．observed
解析　考查动词用法辨析。这四个词都有“看”的意思，但依据前面的suddenly可知这里要表达的是“(突然)留意到”，故B项符合题意。
答案　B
15．A.useful B．valuable C．fearless D．useless
解析　考查形容词辨析。useful“有用的”， valuable“贵重的，很有用的”，fearless“大胆的，无畏的”，useless“无用的”，依据下文可知在伐木工看来这棵弯曲的树没有什么用，所以选D。
答案　D
16．A.so B．for C．as D．but
解析　考查连词。由主从句之间的规律关系和语境可以推断出这是一个由so引导的结果状语从句。
答案　A
17．A.admitted B．neglected C．realized D．regretted
解析　考查语境理解。由上下文可知丑陋的树生疏到了上帝让他长得丑陋其实是给他的恩惠，所以选C。
答案　C
18．A.actually B．gradually C．instantly D．hardly
解析　考查副词的用法辨析。actually“实际上，事实上”，gradually“渐渐地”， instantly“马上”， hardly“几乎不”，依据语境可知答案为A。
答案　A
19．A.spoke B．laughed C．explained D．complained
解析　考查语境理解。文章其次段叙述了丑陋的树在受到称赞后的埋怨，但后来他也生疏到正是由于丑陋他才免遭砍伐，所以他从那以后不再埋怨了。
答案　D
20．A.recalled B．forgot C．considered D．worried
解析　考查语境选词。recall“回忆起”， forget“遗忘”， consider“考虑到，认为”，worry“苦恼，担忧”，依据语境可知此处表示他永久不会遗忘他是如何免遭砍伐的，故答案为B。
答案　B
Ⅱ.阅读理解
体裁：谈论文　话题：历史探究　时间：6分钟
If you and your friends wish to share a secret，you can write it in code，and no one else will be able to read it.Codes are one way of writing in secret.Ciphers(暗码)are another.In a code each word is written as a secret code word or a code number.In a cipher each letter is changed.
Codes and ciphers have played an important role in the history of the world.Julius Caesar，the Roman ruler who defeated almost all the countries in Europe about 2，000 years ago，used a cipher when he sent secret messages to his troops.During the American Revolution，George Washington's spies used a kind of code to send his information about the enemy before his military action.In World War Ⅱ，the Americans“broke” or figured out Japan's most important navy codes and got enough information to destroy a powerful Japanese fleet.
Storekeepers use codes to mark their goods.The codes show how much is paid for the goods or when they are added to the stock.Businessmen use codes to hide plans from their business enemies.Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code.Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.
In the 16th century，codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists.They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets.Geronimo Gardano，an Italian astrologer(占星家)，mathematician，and doctor，invented the trellis cipher.He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one.Then he sent one sheet，which he called a trellis，to a friend and kept the other for himself.Whenever he wanted to write a message，he put his trellis over a clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes.Then he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense.When his friend received it，he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.
【语篇导读】　密码和暗码有效地爱护着隐秘；由古至今，无论是在战火纷飞的前线，还是在没有硝烟的商场，它们都功不行没。有人甚至把它当作个人爱好，其乐无穷。
1．The best title of this passage would be ______．
A．Codes and ciphers
B．Differences between codes and ciphers
C．History of codes and ciphers
D．Inventors of codes and ciphers
解析　主旨大意题。文章第一段点明白本文的中心话题，密码和暗码是有效爱护隐秘的两种方式，故选A。
答案　A
2．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Ciphers can be broken or figured out more easily than codes.
B．You could read some words in Geronimo's letter without his trellis.
C．The first person who ever used a cipher in history was Julius Caesar.
D．Fondness of using codes was the hobby of the scientists in the 1600s.
解析　推理推断题。依据最终一段倒数其次句Then he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense.(Geronimo拿掉框架，然后在纸张的空白部分填满讲得通的内容。)可推知没有框架也可以读他的信件。
答案　B
3．According to Geronimo Gardano，a trellis is ______．
A．a piece of paper with many small holes
B．a secret message with a lot of small holes
C．a letter with unreadable words and sentences
D．a sheet of paper with groups of Arabic figures
解析　推理推断题。最终一段的第四、五两句提到他将两张纸剪成同样的框架，然后把其中一张寄给他伴侣，这样对方就可以利用这张框架来套读信件的内容，故选A。
答案　A
4．It is NOT mentioned in the passage that codes and ciphers are used for the purpose of ______．
A．military affairs B．commercial secrets
C．scientific achievements D．personal enjoyment
解析　细节理解题。其次段提到密码和暗码的军事作用，第三段提到了其在爱护商业隐秘和作为个人爱好方面的作用，文章中没有提到其在科学成就方面的作用。
答案　C
Ⅲ.阅读表达
(2022·泸州一诊)Before I went to university，it seemed to be such a holy place.As for me，it meant glory，respect，freedom，knowledge and a promising future.I have learned much from my four years at university，such as hard work，self－control，friendship and teamwork.
University is full of competition.If you don't want to fall behind other students，you have to study very hard.Besides，the pressure of hunting for a desirable job after graduation also forces you to grasp every minute to equip yourself with as much knowledge as possible.
Self－control is another thing that I have learned in university.Here，the absence of parents' control and the loose control of the school give me more freedom.So I have to learn how to control myself.
University life makes me have a deeper understanding of friendship.Far away from my parents，my friends have become my dearest family members.When I feel lonely，they always sit beside me，let me pour out my secrets to them，and softly comfort me.When I am in trouble and feel helpless，it is my friends who reach out their hands and help me out.
Last but not least，university teaches me the importance of teamwork.There are lots of activities in university that you cannot accomplish on your own，but have to rely on your cooperation with other people.
In a few months' time，I am going to graduate from university.Looking back into the past four years，I must say that my university life is a worthwhile experience.What I have learned here has made a good preparation for my future life.
