阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The Lantern Festival (元宵节) falls on the fifteenth day of the first month in the Chinese lunar calendar. It has a history of more than 2,000 years. On this day, families get together and celebrate it in many ways.
In a small town in Henan, there is a special old lantern show every year. This year, the show began at 6:30 p.m. on February 12th and lasted for three days. There were 500 lanterns in the show. The biggest one was in the shape of a dragon, and it was 12 metres long. Visitors could also write riddles on small red cards and hang them under the lanterns. If someone guessed a riddle correctly, he or she would get a small gift.
Wang Mei, a 13-year-old girl, went to the show with her parents on the second evening. “I am watching the dragon lantern now,” she said to her friend on the phone. “It is so beautiful! My little brother is eating sweet rice balls (汤圆) at home. He is too young to come here.”
At the show, Wang Mei's father bought her a small rabbit lantern. It cost 25 yuan. Wang Mei spent two hours there and guessed six riddles. She got a small box of sweets as a gift.
1. When did the lantern show begin this year?
- A. At 6:30 a.m. on February 12th.
- B. At 6:30 p.m. on February 12th.
- C. At 6:30 p.m. on February 15th.
- D. At 6:30 a.m. on February 15th.
答案：B
解析：本题为细节理解题，以元宵节灯会这一传统文化情境考查信息提取能力。
【思路点拨】
根据题干关键词 lantern show begin 定位到第二段首句："This year, the show began at 6:30 p.m. on February 12th and lasted for three days." 直接提取时间信息：6:30 p.m.，February 12th。
【易错点】
1. 混淆 a.m. 与 p.m.：原文是 6:30 p.m.（晚上），选项 A、D 中的 a.m.（上午）与原文不符，需看清时间标识。
2. 混淆开始日期与结束日期：灯会持续三天（Feb. 12th–14th），选项 C、D 中的 February 15th 是凭空捏造的日期，属于“时间范围扩大”型干扰项。
3. 粗心跳读：只看到 6:30 就选，忽略日期；或只看到 February 12th 就选，忽略上午/下午。
结论：灯会于 2 月 12 日晚上 6:30 开始。故选 B。
2选择题
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
It is nine o'clock on Saturday morning. Some students are in the school library. They are preparing for the English show about traditional Chinese stories.
Wang Lei is sitting at a table near the window. He is reading a book about the story of Yu Gong Moving the Mountains. "I want to tell this story in English," he says. Next to him, Chen Jie is using the computer to look up new words. Behind them, two girls are making a big paper dragon. Their teacher, Miss Gao, is standing by the door and watching them happily.
But Li Ping is not in the library. He is at home. He is not doing his homework. He is watching TV and eating oranges. His mother says, "Li Ping, your classmates are working hard at school. What are you doing?" Li Ping is very sorry and he is riding his bike to school now.
Where are Wang Lei and Chen Jie?
- A. In the classroom.
- B. In the school library.
- C. At the sports field.
- D. At Li Ping's home.
答案：B
解析：本题考查根据短文材料提取细节信息的能力，同时材料中大量使用现在进行时（is sitting / is reading / is using / are making / is standing / is watching / is riding），可帮助学生在语境中巩固 be + 动词-ing 的用法。
定位第一段："Some students are in the school library." 第二段又说 "Wang Lei is sitting at a table near the window"，Chen Jie 在他旁边用电脑查单词（"Next to him, Chen Jie is using the computer..."），说明两人同在图书馆。A 项 classroom 文中未提及；C 项 sports field 无依据；D 项把 Li Ping 在家的情境张冠李戴。易错点：看到 "near the window" 就误以为在教室，忽略首段已明确地点。故选B。
3选择题
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The students of Class 3 are getting ready for the "Chinese Culture Day" at school. Now they are busy in the classroom and the hall. Li Mei is writing Chinese characters on a red paper. Wang Jun is making paper-cuttings for the windows. Chen Hua is drawing a dragon on a long piece of cloth. Zhang Wei is telling a story about Qu Yuan to some younger students. Liu Fang is cleaning the old desks and chairs in the hall. Sun Tao is using the computer to find information about the Spring Festival. Miss Li is standing at the door and watching them happily.
What are they doing? They are working together to show the beauty of Chinese culture to everyone.
Question: According to the passage, what is Sun Tao doing now?
- A. He is telling a story about Qu Yuan.
- B. He is using the computer to find information about the Spring Festival.
- C. He is making paper-cuttings for the windows.
- D. He is cleaning the old desks and chairs in the hall.
答案：B
解析：本题考查现在进行时（be + 动词-ing）在具体语境中的信息提取。根据短文最后一句人物介绍 "Sun Tao is using the computer to find information about the Spring Festival." 可直接定位答案。易错点：① 只凭印象选人物动作，未回原文定位，A、C、D 分别是 Zhang Wei、Wang Jun、Liu Fang 正在做的事，属于张冠李戴；② 误把短文最后的总结句 "They are working together..." 当作某个人的动作。解题关键：先找到题干中的关键词 Sun Tao，再在原文中逐句比对。故选B。
4填空题
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，用括号内所给词的适当形式填空。
The Lantern Festival is an important traditional Chinese festival. It falls on the (1) ______ (fifteen) day of the first month in the Chinese calendar. On that evening, every family usually (2) ______ (eat) yuanxiao, a kind of sweet dumpling. But look at the Green family now! Mrs. Green (3) ______ (make) soup in the kitchen. Mr. Green (4) ______ (use) the computer to look for stories about the festival. Their son Tom (5) ______ (watch) TV in the living room. He says the TV show is teaching him how lanterns were made in ancient times.
答案：(1) fifteenth (2) eats (3) is making (4) is using (5) is watching
解析：本题考查序数词的构成、一般现在时与现在进行时的对比，以及现在进行时 be + 动词-ing 的构成。(1) 表示“第十五天”要用序数词，fifteen 的序数词是特殊变化，需把 -teen 改为 -teenth，写作 fifteenth，且前面常加 the；易错写成 fifteenth 拼成 fiveteenth 或直接用 fifteen。(2) 主语 every family 在此作整体看待，谓语用第三人称单数 eats，表示节日里“通常”发生的事；易错写成 eat，漏掉第三人称单数 -s。(3)(4)(5) 三处都有 now、look at ... now 等提示，表示此刻正在进行的动作，用现在进行时 be + 动词-ing：Mrs. Green 是单数用 is making；Mr. Green 是单数用 is using；Tom 是单数用 is watching。常见错误：一是忘记给动词加 -ing（写成 is make / is use / is watch）；二是 be 动词用错（写成 are making 或 am watching）。注意 making、using、watching 的 -ing 形式都不双写末字母。
5解答题
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容和括号内所给词的适当形式填空，或根据上下文在空白处填入一个恰当的单词，使短文完整、通顺。
It is 7:00 on Saturday evening. The Spring Festival is coming, and the Li family are getting ready for it in different parts of the house.
Look at the living room! Grandpa is sitting in his favourite chair and ______ (read) a newspaper. Next to him, Grandma is ______ (make) dumplings. She says dumplings bring good luck. The kitchen is small, but there ______ (be) a big pot of hot soup on the stove, and the nice smell is coming out of it.
In the study, Li Hua is ______ (use) the computer. He is looking for old stories about the Spring Festival on the Internet. “Mum, ______ are you doing now?” he calls out. “I ______ (clean) the windows,” Mum answers. “They must be clean for the new year.”
Outside the door, Li Hua's little sister is ______ (watch) TV. She is not very happy, because there is only one TV in the house and she wants to watch a cartoon. “Don't worry,” Dad says. “We ______ (buy) a new TV next week.”
The whole family are busy, but everyone is smiling. They are all looking forward to the festival.
注意：每空不限一词，注意所给词的正确形式。
答案：1. reading 2. making 3. is 4. using 5. What 6. am cleaning 7. watching 8. will buy / are going to buy
【参考解析】
1. reading：由 is sitting 可知，本段用现在进行时，read 要加 -ing。
2. making：由 is 可知用现在进行时，make 去 e 加 -ing，构成 is making。
3. is：there be 句型表示“某地存在某物”，遵循就近原则；离空最近的名词是 a big pot（单数），故用 There is。
4. using：由 is 可知用现在进行时，use 去 e 加 -ing。
5. What：根据答语 I am cleaning the windows 可知，问的是“你在做什么”，用 What are you doing?
6. am cleaning：主语是 I，故 be 动词用 am，clean 加 -ing，构成 am cleaning。
7. watching：由 is 可知用现在进行时，watch 加 -ing。
8. will buy / are going to buy：next week 表示将来时间，用一般将来时。
解析：本题以“春节家庭准备”为传统文化情境，综合考查现在进行时（be + 动词-ing）与 there be 句型两大核心考点。
【思路点拨】
① 现在进行时：看到 is / are / am，立刻想到动词要加 -ing。注意 read→reading、make→making、use→using 三种常见变化。
② there be 与 have 的辨析：本题第 3 空是 there be 句型，表示“炉子上有一锅汤”（存在），不能用 there has；若主语是人（如 Grandma has two helpers），才用 have/has（拥有）。判断方法：看句子真正的主语是“地点/方位名词”还是“人”。
③ 特殊疑问句：根据答语反推问句，答语是动作，用 What are you doing?
【易错点】
1. 动词忘记加 -ing，直接写 read、make、clean。
2. be 动词用错：I 后误用 is，应为 am cleaning。
3. make / use 的 -ing 变化漏掉“去 e”，写成 makeing、useing。
4. 第 3 空受中文“有”字影响，写成 there have 或 there has，正确应为 there is；且要注意就近原则（a big pot 是单数）。
5. 第 5 空误用 How are you doing，本句问“在做什么”，应为 What。
6解答题
阅读下面短文，按要求完成后面的题目。
Last Saturday, Li Hua visited the City Museum of History with his classmates. There was a special show about the Silk Road. In the show, a guide told them many old stories. At noon, they had lunch near the museum. On Sunday, Li Hua stayed at home and wrote a short report about the trip.
已知信息：
· There were some old photos in the show. (改为一般疑问句并作肯定回答)
· Li Hua took the bus to the museum. (对画线部分提问，画线部分为 "the bus")
· Watch TV in the reading room. (改为否定祈使句)
· They will visit the museum again next month. (用 now 改写句子，改为现在进行时)
请按以上顺序写出四个句子的答案，并简要说明第 4 句为什么用现在进行时。
答案：(1) Were there any old photos in the show? Yes, there were.
(2) How did Li Hua get to the museum?
(3) Don't watch TV in the reading room.
(4) They are visiting the museum now.
说明：第 4 句因为句中用了 now，表示此刻正在进行的动作，所以要用现在进行时 be + 动词-ing，主语 They 为复数，be 动词用 are，visit 直接加 -ing 变为 visiting。
解析：本题综合考查 There be 句型的一般疑问句、交通方式的提问、祈使句的否定形式以及现在进行时。(1) 原句 There were 是 There be 的复数过去式，改一般疑问句时把 Were 提到 there 前，some 在疑问句中要改为 any，得到 Were there any old photos in the show? 肯定回答用 Yes, there were. 易错：错写成 Was there（忽略了 photos 是复数）；some 未改 any；回答写成 Yes, there are.（时态与问句不一致）。(2) 对交通方式提问用 How did ... get to ...?，注意 get to 后要接地点名词，写成 How did Li Hua get to the museum? 易错：受中文思维影响写成 What did Li Hua take to the museum?（不地道）；漏掉 get to；误用 do 而不是 did（因为原句是过去时 took）。(3) 祈使句的否定形式在动词原形前加 Don't，故为 Don't watch TV in the reading room. 易错：写成 Not watch...（漏 Don't）；在句末加 don't。(4) now 是现在进行时的标志词，结构为 be + 动词-ing，主语 They 用 are，故为 They are visiting the museum now. 易错：忘记加 -ing 写成 are visit；be 动词用错写成 is visiting；仍用一般现在时 visit。
7解答题
根据短文内容，用括号内所给词的适当形式填空，或根据中文提示完成句子（每空一词）。
It is seven o'clock in the evening. The Li family are all at home, but everyone is doing something different. Mr. Li (sit) ________ ① on the sofa and (read) ________ ② a history book about the story of Kong Rong and the pears. Mrs. Li (make) ________ ③ soup in the kitchen. Their son, Li Ming, (do) ________ ④ his homework in his room. His sister, Li Hua, (use) ________ ⑤ the computer to write an e-mail to her pen pal. Listen! Someone (sing) ________ ⑥ in the next room. — What are you doing? — I (watch) ________ ⑦ TV now. Look! The cat (sleep) ________ ⑧ under the table.
⑨ （对划线内容提问）Li Ming is doing his homework in his room.（对 doing his homework 提问）________ is Li Ming ________?
⑩ （对划线内容提问）Li Hua is using the computer in the study.（对 in the study 提问）________ is Li Hua using the computer?
答案：① is sitting ② is reading ③ is making ④ is doing ⑤ is using ⑥ is singing ⑦ am watching ⑧ is sleeping ⑨ What; doing ⑩ Where
完整句子参考：
① Mr. Li is sitting on the sofa. ② He is reading a history book. ③ Mrs. Li is making soup. ④ Li Ming is doing his homework. ⑤ Li Hua is using the computer. ⑥ Someone is singing in the next room. ⑦ I am watching TV now. ⑧ The cat is sleeping under the table. ⑨ What is Li Ming doing? ⑩ Where is Li Hua using the computer?
解析：本题以「一家人晚上各做各的事」为情境，把现在进行时（be + 动词-ing）、have/实义动词、方位介词（on the sofa / in the kitchen / in his room / in the study / under the table）和特殊疑问句语序（疑问词 + 一般疑问句语序）集中考查，属于多考点综合。
①~⑧：先看主语定 be 动词（Mr. Li / Mrs. Li / Li Ming / Li Hua / Someone / The cat 用 is；I 用 am），再把括号内动词变为 -ing 形式。注意 sit → sitting（双写 t）、make → making（去 e 加 ing）、use → using、do → doing、read → reading。易错点一：只写 sitting 而漏掉 be 动词，或写成 "Mr. Li siting"；易错点二：主语是 I 时错用 is；易错点三：把 "Listen!" 后的句子写成一般现在时 sings。
⑨：对动作提问用 What，后面接 be 动词提前的一般疑问句语序 What is Li Ming doing?，不能写成 "What Li Ming is doing"，也不要加助动词 do。
⑩：对地点提问用 Where，句子本身含 be 动词 is，直接把 is 提前即可，即 Where is Li Hua using the computer?，易错写成 "Where does Li Hua using..." 或漏掉 is。
8解答题
根据短文内容，用括号内所给词的适当形式填空，并回答问题。
Last Saturday was the Lantern Festival. My family were very busy at home. My grandmother was (1) ______ (make) sweet rice balls in the kitchen. My father was (2) ______ (clean) the big lanterns in the living room. My mother was (3) ______ (write) riddles on small red papers. I was (4) ______ (use) the computer to look for old stories about the festival. My little brother was (5) ______ (read) a book about Chinese festivals. At seven o'clock, we all went out to watch the lanterns together.
问题：
(1) 请写出 (1)–(5) 的正确答案。
(2) What were you and your family doing before seven o'clock? 请用完整的英语句子回答（不少于2句）。
(3) 请写出文中动词变为现在分词时需要双写末尾字母的那个词及其现在分词形式。
答案：(1) making; (2) cleaning; (3) writing; (4) using; (5) reading。
(2) 参考答案：Before seven o'clock, my family were getting ready for the Lantern Festival. My grandmother was making sweet rice balls, my mother was writing riddles on small red papers, and I was using the computer to look for old stories about the festival.（答案不唯一，符合文意、语法正确即可）
(3) make → making；clean → cleaning；write → writing；use → using；read → reading。其中 clean 是重读闭音节结尾，需双写末尾字母 n 再加 -ing，即 cleaning。
解析：本题考查现在进行时 be + 动词-ing 的构成及动词加 -ing 的变化规则。短文整体用过去进行时（was/were + doing）描述元宵节当晚正在做的事，但设问只考 -ing 形式的变化，因此只需写出动词的现在分词。变化规则：① 一般直接加 -ing：make → making, read → reading；② 以不发音 e 结尾，去 e 加 -ing：write → writing, use → using；③ 重读闭音节结尾且末尾只有一个辅音字母，双写末尾字母再加 -ing：clean → cleaning。易错点：① 忘记加 -ing，写成 make、clean 等原形；② 漏掉去 e 的规则，误写 writting、useing（正确为 writing、using）；③ 把 clean 误当作不需要双写，或反过来给 make 双写成 makking；④ 第(2)问答句时 be 动词用错，如写成 "My family was..."（family 在此指家庭成员，应用 were），或漏掉 be 动词只写 "My grandmother making..."；⑤ 第(3)问答非谓语形式时，把 clean 的 -ing 写成 cleanning。作答提示：先判断动词结尾属于哪一类，再套用对应规则，并检查句子中 be 动词与主语的人称和数是否一致。
