十一、阅读理解。
A. 阅读日记,完成下列各题。
March 12th
Today, students of Grade 5 plant 10 orange trees. The trees are green but not tall. They're small. We plant them in the field.
April 15th
We water the trees every day. They have lots of flowers now. They are white and pretty.
July 20th
We see many small oranges today! They are as small as grapes. They are green and hard like stones.
August 24th
Now the oranges are as big as baseballs. But they are still green and hard. We try some. Oh no! They're so sour.
(一)阅读日记,将与图片对应的日期填在横线上。

(二)阅读日记,判断下列句子正(T)误(F)。
()1. The orange trees are green and not tall in March.
()2. The underlined word "hard" means "硬的" here.
()3. The oranges are as big as baseballs in autumn.

A.（一）1. July 20th/the twentieth
of July
2. March 12th/ the twelfth
of March
3. August 24th/the twenty-
fourth of August
4. April 15th/the fifteenth
of April
（二）1. T 2. T 3. F

【分析】
对于（一）：首先需要逐一梳理每篇日记的核心内容，明确不同日期橘子树的状态：3月12日是种植矮小的橘子树苗；4月15日橘子树开出白色花朵；7月20日长出像葡萄一样小的橘子；8月24日橘子长得像棒球一样大。然后将这些状态与对应图片匹配，找到对应的日期。
对于（二）：要逐个分析句子，结合原文细节判断正误：
1. 需定位到3月12日的日记内容，对比句子描述是否一致；
2. 根据“hard like stones”的比喻，推断单词的中文意思；
3. 先明确August属于夏季，再结合原文日期判断句子中“autumn”的表述是否正确。
【解析】
（一）
1. 对应日记July 20th的内容“We see many small oranges today! They are as small as grapes.”，所以填July 20th/the twentieth of July；
2. 对应日记March 12th的内容“Today, students of Grade 5 plant 10 orange trees. The trees are green but not tall. They're small.”，所以填March 12th/ the twelfth of March；
3. 对应日记August 24th的内容“Now the oranges are as big as baseballs.”，所以填August 24th/the twenty-fourth of August；
4. 对应日记April 15th的内容“They have lots of flowers now. They are white and pretty.”，所以填April 15th/the fifteenth of April。
（二）
1. 根据March 12th的日记“The trees are green but not tall.”，句子描述与原文一致，故填T；
2. 原文“green and hard like stones”中，石头的特点是硬的，可推断“hard”在这里意为“硬的”，故填T；
3. August是夏季（summer），并非秋季（autumn），且原文中橘子长到棒球大小是在8月24日，所以句子表述错误，故填F。
【答案】
A.（一）1. July 20th/the twentieth of July
2. March 12th/ the twelfth of March
3. August 24th/the twenty-fourth of August
4. April 15th/the fifteenth of April
（二）1. T 2. T 3. F

B. 阅读短文,选择正确的选项。
How will you celebrate a special day? Having parties is a good way. There are many activities to have fun at parties.
Passing the parcel is one of my favourite activities. On my eighteenth birthday, we play the game. My friends and I sit in a circle. Someone wraps(包) a present up in many layers(层) of paper. Then, it's time to put some music on. As the music plays, pass the parcel around the circle. When the music stops, the person holding it tears(撕掉) a layer of paper off. The person who tears the last layer of paper off wins the prize! Guess who wins the prize. Ha! Ha! It's me.
There are other party activities too. Horse riding and quad biking(驾驶四轮摩托车) are so popular for adults. I also like riding a quad bike. I usually ride it with my family at family parties. Each of us has a quad bike. Then, we ride along a route through the town.

【分析】
1. 第1题：解题思路是定位题目关键信息“eighteenth birthday”，回到短文第二段，找到“On my eighteenth birthday, we play the game.”，这里的game指代前文提到的“Passing the parcel”，由此确定答案。
2. 第2题：解题思路是结合上下文语境猜测短语含义，原文中“put some music on”出现在传包裹游戏的场景中，根据逻辑和常识可判断此处是“播放音乐”的意思，进而选出正确选项。
3. 第3题：解题思路是直接查找原文关于传包裹游戏获奖规则的描述，短文第二段明确说明“The person who tears the last layer of paper off wins the prize!”，据此得出答案。
4. 第4题：解题思路是归纳文章主旨，文章开头点明派对有很多有趣活动，接着分别介绍了传包裹、骑马、驾驶四轮摩托车等派对活动，整体围绕派对趣味活动展开，从而确定主旨。
【解析】
1. 第1题：根据短文第二段“Passing the parcel is one of my favourite activities. On my eighteenth birthday, we play the game.”可知，作者和朋友在18岁生日时玩的是传包裹游戏，故选A。
2. 第2题：结合语境“Then, it's time to put some music on. As the music plays, pass the parcel around the circle.”，此处是在派对游戏中播放音乐，所以“put...on”意为“播放”，故选C。
3. 第3题：由短文第二段“The person who tears the last layer of paper off wins the prize!”可知，撕掉最后一层纸的人赢得奖品，故选B。
4. 第4题：文章开头引出派对上有很多有趣活动，随后分别介绍了传包裹、骑马、驾驶四轮摩托车等不同的派对活动，全文围绕派对上的趣味活动展开，故选B。
