One evening after supper, Mom or I went to our little vegetable garden, only to find quite a few cucumbers were destroyed. Dried leaf were left on the ground, making us feel sadly. Observing carefully, we found some animal footprints here. We guessed that it must be a pet dog that had made up the mess.
Several days later, to our great excite, the damaged vegetables begin to grow again. Some even had little cucumbers, which goes as the saying “Misfortune may be an actual good thing!”. This taught him a good lesson—We should treat a bad thing in positive way instead of turn angry.
参考答案：

【分析】
本文是记叙文。作者通过记叙在自家菜园里种黄瓜的经历，感悟出一点道理：我们应该以积极的方式对待一件坏事，而不是变得愤怒。
【详解】第1处，考查连词。妈妈和我去我们的小菜园，此处为并列关系，故将or改为and。
第2处，考查主谓一致。根据其后谓语动词were可知，主语应为复数形式，故将leaf改为leaves。
第3处，考查形容词作表语。feel为连系动词，其后须跟形容词形式作表语，故将sadly改为sad。
第4处，考查副词。根据上下文语义可知，我们发现那里（there）有动物爪印。“那里”指代地点状语“在小菜园里”。故将here改为there。
第5处，考查固定短语。make a mess为固定短语搭配，意为“弄得一团糟”，故去掉up。
第6处，考查名词用法。“to one’s + 名词”为固定结构，意为“使某人…的是，”故此处用名词，将excite改为excitement。
第7处，考查时态。根据上下文可知，本文为叙述过去发生过的事件，此处应该用一般过去时，故将begin改为began。
第8处，考查代词宾格。根据上下文逻辑关系可知，这给了“我/我们”一个教训，作宾语，用宾格形式，故将him改为me/us。
第9处，考查冠词用法。in a … way “用…的方法”，way为可数名词单数，其前应加不定冠词，故在in和positive之间加a。
第10处，考查非谓语动词。动词用在介词之后作宾语时，用动名词形式，故将turn改为turning。
三、 阅读理解
21. You may think, salt is just a simple cooking element we shake on our food for a little extra taste. But salt is much more than that. Without salt our muscles would not move. Our nervous systems would not operate. Our hearts would not beat.
But do not think rubbing salt into a wound will help. Doing that would be painful and not heal the wound. “To rub salt into a wound” is an idiom that means to purposefully make a bad situation worse.
Early humans got the salt they needed to stay alive from the animals they killed. But advances in agriculture led to a diet low in salt. So, humans needed to find other sources. Those who lived near the ocean or other natural sources for salt were lucky. Those who did not had to trade for salt. In fact, people used salt as a method of payment in many parts of the ancient world. The word “salary” comes from the word “salt”.
Salt also played an important part in population movement and world exploration. Explorers understood that if they could keep food fresh, they could travel longer distances. So they used salt to preserve food and explore the world.
Salt was so important that, according to food historians, it was traded pound-for-pound for gold. Today, people still use the expressions “worth one's salt” or “worth one's weight in salt”. The expressions describe a person of value.
A person might also be called “salt of the earth”. That description means he or she is dependable and trustworthy. However, when you say “I think we should take what he said with a grain of salt”you mean you accept it but maintain a degree of doubt about its truth.
8. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Salt plays an important part in our life.
B. Salt makes food tasty.
C. Salt is considered to be part of our muscles.
D. Salt is sure to damage nervous systems.
9. A beggar’s bread was stolen last night, which means_________.
A. salt of the earth
B. rubbing salt in a wound
C. a diet low in salt
D. worth his salt
10. If you describe a person as a great help, you mean_________ .
A. he rubs salt in a wound
B. he is often taken as a grain of salt
C. he often uses salt to preserve meat
D. he is worth his weight in salt
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Salt Is More Than a Four-letter Word.
B. Salt Is a Basic Element in Cooking.
C. Salt Is a Word with a Long History.
D. Salt Is Popular with Different People.
参考答案：
8. A    9. B    10. D    11. A
试题分析：你可能会认为，盐不过是我们在食物上添加用以增加风味的简单东西，但盐的作用不仅于此。文章讲述了许多与盐有关的词汇表达。
8. 推理判断题。通读第一段可知，本段讲述盐不仅是一种调味品，而且盐对于我们的肌肉、神经系统和心脏起着决定性作用，盐意味着生命。故选A。
9. 推理判断题。“乞丐的面包昨天晚上被偷了”意味着原本一贫如洗的人连最基本的赖以生存的食物都没有了，这犹如伤口上撒盐，让情况变得更加糟糕。故选B。
10. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的句子“Today, people still use the expressions “worth one's salt” or “worth one's weight in salt”. The expressions describe a person of value.”可知，盐是如此重要，今天人们仍旧使用“worth one's salt” 或者 “worth one's weight in salt”来描述那些重要人物。故选D。
11. 标题判断题。纵观全文可知，文章主要讲述了与“salt”有关的习语表达，盐在人们的生活中是至关重要的，因此也衍生处许多与盐有关的日常表达。因此推断A“盐不仅仅是一个四个字母的单词”为最佳标题。故选A。
22. For many years, Bruce Bexler dreamed of going where no human had gone before. He wanted to cut a path through unexplored lands and discover rare, exotic species.
That might sound like an impossible dream, but Bexler turned it into a reality.
In December 2015, he and a team of Australian and American scientists ventured into an isolated tropical rain forest on the island of New Guinea. They were the first people ever to enter the mist-covered region. “As time was limited, we were dropped in by helicopter. Once we were on the ground, there were no trails anywhere; it was really hard to get around,” Bexler says.
Within minutes of landing, the team spotted a black chicken-like bird with strange orange skin hanging from its neck. The scientists soon determined that the unusual creature was a type of honeyeater — the first new bird species to be sighted on New Guinea in 60 years.
The honeyeater wasn’t the only surprise for the scientists. They discovered more than 40 previously unknown plant and animal species — 13 birds of paradise, 20 frogs, four butterflies, and five palms. “We were like kids in a candy store,” Bexler recalls. “Everywhere we looked, we saw amazing things we had never seen before.”
The newfound species didn’t shy away from the scientists. Two long-nosed echidnas — primitive egg-laying mammals — let the visitors pick them up and take them back to camp to study them. An echidna looks like a hedgehog and is also called a spiny anteater.
Bexler thinks the animals weren’t scared because they had never seen humans before. “In almost all parts of New Guinea, animals are hunted for food, and because of this, they are very cautious of people,” he explains. “This area gives scientists a place where they can go to study the behaviours of animals that have not yet learned to be afraid of people.”
Scientists believe the area is probably the largest untouched forest in Asia. Local people called Kwerba hunt and collect plants from the outer-edges of the forest but told Bexler that not even their ancestors had gone so far into the woods. The wooded area is approximately a 10-day walk from the nearest village.
Bexler and his team did not have enough time during the expedition to study the area completely. They hope to return and expect to record many more undiscovered species. “We just scratched the surface,” Bexler says. “Anyone who goes there will come back with a mystery.”
28. Which word best describes Bruce Bexler?
A. Adventurous. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Thorough.
29. What does Bruce Bexler mean in Paragraph 5 when he says the scientists “were like kids in a candy store”?
A. They didn’t have enough food and were hungry.
B. They were very excited about what they saw.
C. They were misbehaving like naughty children.
D. They knew that if they kept searching, they’d find sugar.
30. Why did some of the animals allow the scientists to pick them up?
A. The scientists seemed to be very friendly.
B. The scientists were skilled in handling animals.
C. The animals had been well-trained by the local people.
D. The animals had no experience or fear of people.
31. What can we conclude about the area Bruce Bexler explored?
A. The best way to explore the area is by helicopter.
B. The area has not been visited by scientists for many years.
C. The area still contains many plants and animals unknown to science.
D. The locals are unwilling to allow the scientists to enter the deep woods.
