Total Marks: 50

Section A: Vocabulary and Language Use (15 marks)

Questions 1–5: Vocabulary in Context (语境词汇) [10 marks]

1. B) 努力 [2]
   Explanation: The passage describes Xiao Ming going to the library to revise after school every day until late, and classmates admire his perseverance. "勤奋" means hardworking/diligent. Option A (clever), C (obedient), D (polite) do not fit the context of consistent effort in studies.

2. C) 坚持不懈的意志 [2]
   Explanation: "毅力" refers to the determination to persist despite difficulty. The context shows Xiao Ming revising daily until late, demonstrating perseverance. Option A (intelligence), B (patience), D (curiosity) are not the core meaning of "毅力".

3. B) 积极主动 [2]
   Explanation: "踊跃" describes enthusiastic, voluntary participation. The passage says even students who dislike sports joined the cheerleading squad voluntarily. Option A (reluctant), C (passive), D (shy) are antonyms.

4. B) 大声呼喊 [2]
   Explanation: "呐喊助威" means shouting loudly to cheer. The context is a sports meet cheerleading squad. Option A (whispering), C (silent prayer), D (quiet watching) contradict the lively atmosphere.

5. B) 爱护、重视 [2]
   Explanation: Grandfather teaches to "珍惜" food because every grain comes from hard work. The poem quote reinforces valuing food. Option A (waste), C (store), D (share) do not match the moral lesson.

Questions 6–8: Sentence Completion (句子填空) [5 marks]

6. 团结一致 [2]
   Explanation: The sentence structure "只要……就……" (only if... then...) sets up a condition for overcoming difficulties. "团结一致" (united as one) is the only positive, logical condition. The other options (acting alone, passing the buck, giving up halfway) would not lead to overcoming difficulties.

7. 怎么也 [1]
   Explanation: "怎么也" (no matter how) expresses that despite great effort, the result cannot be achieved. It fits the context of a difficult math problem. "根本不" (simply not), "早就" (long ago), "刚好" (just right) do not convey the meaning of persistent but failed attempt.

8. 早已 [2]
   Explanation: "正等着我们回家吃呢" indicates the action (cooking dinner) was completed before the current moment of waiting. "早已" (already long ago) shows completion prior to now. "正在" (in progress), "刚刚" (just now), "将要" (will) do not match the timeline.
