D. Answer the questions （依据以下内容回答问题）（12分）
Archery is a sport that makes use of a bow（弓）and arrow（箭）
Archers（弓箭手）hit a target （耙子）with the arrows. The target is round and has a series of rings around a center. The center is known as the bull’s eye. The closer an archer can get to the bull’s eye with his arrow，the more skillful he is.
Archery didn’t begin as a sport. It was used for fighting and hunting. The ancient Egyptians were the first people who recorded the use of bows and arrows. Other races such as Hebrews and the Chinese were also famous for archery.
The Romans were very good archers. This is how they were able to conquer many countries. Soon，the bow and arrow became one of the most common weapons （武 器）in Europe.
AJI this changed with the invention of gunpowder（火药）. In the 16th century, the
Spanish navy （西班牙海军）was beaten by the English. The Spanish depended a lot on bows and arrows while the English had a powerful new weapon—guns. This is a turning point in history. Soon, countries began using guns instead of narrows. But not all countries have given up the bow and arrow. They are still being used as weapons in certain parts of the world such as Africa and South America.
The earliest record of archery as a sport came from China. In ancient China, the rich enjoyed archery contests. Skillful archers competed to see who the best was. Archery has also been a popular sport in England since the Middle Ages.
Today，archery is a popular sport in some parts of the world. One needs to train a lot to become a good archer. It takes practice as well as skills. An archer needs to have a s arm and good eyesight. Good posture is also necessary.
88.How can you tell how good an archer is?
__________
89.The ancient Egyptians were the people who invented archery in history，weren’t they?
__________
90.What made people sTOP using archery in wars?
__________
91.Why did the Spanish navy lose to the English?
__________
92.Someone says "Today, the bow and arrow is only used in sports." Find a sentence in the passage to refute （反驳）his idea.
__________
93 Do you think it is necessary for an archer to have a strong arm and good eyesight? Why or why not?

Part 3
VI.A
69.A【分析】細地铁时刻表，可以发现East Point是地铁红线的第四站
70.A【分析】查阅地铁时刻表，可以发现West Point是地铁蓝线的终点站，也是地铁绿线的起点站。因此选A
71.B【分析】本题需要算地铁在站点和站点之间运行所需的时长。列车Sun Valley和Mid West
之间运行18分钟，在North Station和Riverside、之间运行29分钟，在West Point和 Sun Valley之间运行11分钟，在East Point和Lowland之间运行15分钟。列车在 North Station和Riverside之间的运行时间最长，距离也最长。
72.D【分析】假如 Simon 于上午5:01 在 North Station 上车，乘坐41分钟后于5:42分到达West Point，在West Point换乘绿线。West Point的首班车时间是5: 23。依据发车的频率 推算，第4班列车将于5:44出发，即便是零距离换乘，绿线列车也要在两分钟后才会启动，运行29分钟后到达Mid West。三段时间相加为72 分钟。
73.B【分析】购买Monthly Subway Pass的乘客乘坐地铁红线、蓝线、绿线的次数不限 。选项A中的商人来访Dragon City的时间是3天，选项C中的学生天天只乘坐蓝 线，选项D中的退休老师每周只坐一次地铁，因此购买Monthly Subway Pass的性价比不高。选项B 中的员工天天要换乘3条地铁去上班，因此，他用Monthly Subway Pass最经济，获益最多。
74.C 【分析】Operation hours意思是“操作时间，运行小时数”。这份地铁时刻表只不过提供了首班车的 发车时间，但没提供末班车的发车时间，没办法统计运行小时数。
75. C【分析】第一段第一句提到Emily是一个青少年，她对爸爸妈妈说要和朋友Kim去听音乐 会，爸爸妈妈觉得Emi〗y年龄太小，不可以在没成年人陪同的状况下去音乐会。选项A partners 和选项B friends意思相近，与事实不符。选项D relatives不符合需要，由于亲戚 中有成年人，也有未成年人。应该注意不要把partners误以为是parents。
76. D【分析】promise意为“诺言”，impression意为“印象”，experience意为“历程、经验”，surprise意为 “惊奇”。在后文中，Emily告诉Kim她真不想欺骗我们的爸爸妈妈。因此，当她听到Kim向妈妈撒谎，打着和朋友去学习的幌子去听音乐会时，感到非常震撼。
77.B【分析】Emily 和Kim是性格完全不一样的少年，Kim是比较不听话的，她感觉不撒谎不正常，不撒谎是孩子子的表现，她让Emily别像个孩子似的sTOP acting like a
78. A 【分析】all the time 意为“一直”，at the same time 意为“同时”，for the time 意为目前ahead of time意为“提前”。Kim和她妈妈之间发生了争执, Kim的妈妈不信赖Kim了，说明Kim撒谎不是一次两次，而是一直在撒谎。
79. D【分析】 fond of意为“喜欢”， satisfied with意为“对……感到认可妈妈厌倦 “习惯于”, tired of意为“厌倦”。从旁观者Emily的角度来看，Kim长期撒谎，致使她的妈妈厌倦了女儿的不诚实行为。
了女儿的不诚实行，，不管Kim怎么说，都不相信她。
81. notice【分析】醇发生在一个繁忙的车站里，一些行者步履匆匆，没看见这个小姑娘。因此填
82around【分析】另外一些行者觉得这不是自己家的孩子，其他人醜子其他人会负责，孩子的爸爸妈妈-定在周围
83. own
84.raises【分析】文本的第一段描述小姑娘盯着地板看，因此，当好心人拍她的 肩膀时，她抬起了头。因为整个文本基本用了一般目前时，这句话中主语是she
85.information【分析】从后文可以得知保安职员在广播里公告，帮助探寻女生的爸爸妈妈。一般有广播的 地方是问讯处或者服务台，information desk的意思是问讯处，所以填information。
86.deaf【分析】女生的妈妈丢了孩子之后只不过到处探寻，不需要广播公告是什么原因女生听不到广播，由于 她是聋的。
87.how【分析】好心人因我们的善举感到开心，计划把这件事告诉家人。大家在讲述某件事情时，一直 要考虑如何讲了解来龙去脉，因此填how。how he will tell his family about this是thinks of的宾语， 构成宾语从句。不可以以偏概全，仅考虑think of something/somebody。
D.
88 by how close an archer can get to the bull’s eye with his arrow./The closer an archer can get to the bull's eye with his arrow, the more skillful he is.【分析】文本第一段最后一句删弓箭手的箭离靶
89. 依据文本第二段第三句，古埃及人是第一个记录弓箭删办法的人，但并没说他们创造了弓箭。文本第二段第三句，古埃及人是第一个记录弓箭用法的人，但并
90.The invention of gunpowder.
91.Because the Spanish bows and arrows are not as powerful as/less powerful than the English guns【分析】第四段第二句西班牙人依赖弓箭而英国人有强大的新型武器—枪”，表晒班牙人在武器上比 英国人弱是西班牙人战败是什么原因，注意要用比较状语从句表述。
92.They are still being used as weapons in certain parts of the world such as Africa and South America.【分析】文本倒数第三段最后一句提供了反驳这个看法的信息，意思是它们仍在世界的某些地 方被当成武器，如非洲和南美。
93. Yes，I think so. Because good eyesight makes an archer aim at the target accurately and a strong arm helps him keep his balance./Because good eyesight decides how close an arrow can get to the bull’s eye and a strong arm decides how far the arrow reaches. 【分析】 依据文本最后一段的信息，应该作出一定回答。然后针对good eyesight和a strong arm两个方面组织 语言进行回答。在第一段中可以找到与“好的视力帮助弓箭手更好地瞄准靶心”有关的信息。但学 生要依据我们的背景常识进行考虑，作出“强健的臂膀帮助弓箭手维持身体平衡并把箭射得更远”的 判断。
VII. 94.【分析】写作者第一要注意观察每一幅图片，看清画面里女子的动作'表情等，同时应该注意图片中的礼 物盒子是故事进步的线索。写作者要发挥想象力，依据线索设计故事结尾，并据此把题目补充完整， 如可用surprising/precious/lovely/secret等单词，起到画龙点睛有哪些用途。
围绕以下情节：发现盒子 手捧盒子 打开盒子，阅读字条 自拟结尾，故事的结尾应该合情合理，与 题描述的是过去的一件事情，因此，大多数的文字应该用一般过去时。写作时，仅需根据图片逐一描述即可。
