Everyone knows it is winter in China. But when I was in the south of China for the Chinese New Year, it almost felt like summer! I am lucky to see a lot of China when I travelled all over China.

In Qingdao I drank beer and swam in the sea. But in Harbin it was very cold. I saw the beautiful ice and snow sculptures. In Chongli, Hebei, I learned to snowboard in the snow! Shanghai is like a European(欧洲的) city. There are lots of western cafes and restaurants and it is quite warm.

Guilin is another lovely, warm place. I visited the old buildings and walked around a beautiful lake. Yangshou is my favourite city. I took photos of the mountains and the Li River. It was -25℃ in Harbin, but was 22℃ in Yangshou. The Sun was so hot that I even got sunburnt! I rode a bicycle along the Yulong River. I ate strawberries and drank tea from the farms in the mountains.

Monkeys are clever, but they are very greedy (贪婪的) as well. They have suffered (吃亏) a lot because of this. But they never change this way.

In India, people use monkeys’ greed to catch them. Do you know how they can catch monkeys? Here are some instructions.

Make a hole（洞）in a big pumpkin. The hole must be just right—not too big or too small.

Put some jujubes (枣) in the hole.

Leave the pumpkin under a tree. Make sure there are some monkeys in the tree.

Hide yourself and watch the monkeys.

When you leave, the monkeys come down to the pumpkin. When they find a hole in the pumpkin, they don’t know what’s in it and one of them puts its hand into the hole to find out what is inside. When it touches the jujubes, it will clench (攥紧) some of them in its hand. So it isn’t able to take its fist (拳) out of the hole. You can’t come close at this time. Will the monkey drop off the pumpkin? Don’t worry. It seems it likes the pumpkin better than its life. It will run with the pumpkin, clenching its fist more tightly. Finally, people can catch it easily.

一Is the tie made silk? 一Yes，and it is made hand.

A. from; in B. of ; by C. of; with D. from; by

B 【解析】 句意：——这条领带是丝绸做的吗？——是的，它是手工制做的。考查固定短语。be made of和be made from都是“由…制成”，be made of能够从成品中看得出原材料，be made from从成品中看不出原材料，本题是看得出原材料，丝绸变成领带只是经过物理变化，所以用介词of；be made in在…制造，be made by由…制造、被…制造，第二个空是...

A. to go; to ride B. go; riding

C. going; to ride D. go; to ride

D 【解析】句意：我宁愿骑自行车也不愿坐公交车去学校。考查固定搭配。根据题干Rather than to school by bus，I preferred a bike there.可知prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.固定词组，宁愿…也不愿意…，即我宁愿骑自行车也不愿坐公交车去学校，故答案选D。

of the students has solved the problem，so hardly has come out of the classroom.

A. None; anybody B. None; nobody

C. No one; anybody D. No one; nobody

A 【解析】句意：没有学生能解答出这个问题，所以几乎没有人走出教室。本题考查不定代词。none既可以指人也可以指物，常暗示一定范围，因此常与表示范围的of短语连用；而no one（= nobody）只能指人，不能与of短语连用，本句中有of，所以排除C、D选项。anybody用于肯定句中表示任何人，用于否定句或疑问句中表示一些人，由句中的hardly“几乎不”含有否定意义，可知此处应填any...

一Betty, do you know if Tony the photo competition next month?

一He will，if he his project in Australia.

C. will enter; will finish D. will enter; finishes

D 【解析】句意：——贝蒂，你知道下个月托尼会参加摄影大赛吗？——如果他完成了在澳大利亚的项目会参加的。本题考查时态辨析。第一个if引导的是宾语从句，主句是一般现在时，从句时态不受限制，结合next month可知用一般将来时will+动词原形，排除A、B选项；第二个if引导的是条件状语从句，遵循主将从现的规则，从句主语he，故填finishes，排除C选项；故答案选D。
