The same goes for the New Year. Let’s take a look at some unique New Year traditions from around the world. Smashing (打碎) plates If you walked out of your front door to find a load of smashed plates, you might be a bit confused. But that’s exactly what people in Denmark hope to find after midnight, as it represents good luck. Danish people go and smash a plate in front of a friend’s door on New Year’s Eve to bring good luck over the next 12 months. Dropping things In New York City, Times Square is the centre of the countdown to midnight. But the thing that everyone is looking forward to is called the “ball drop”, which is when a glowing (发光) ball is lowered down a big flag pole (旗杆), marking the start of the New Year. Other cities in America now have their own traditions of dropping things on New Year’s Eve. For example, in Vincennes, Indiana, people drop watermelons from high places. Eating grapes When the clocks hit midnight in Spain, you’ll find people reaching for grapes. This is because there is a tradition of eating one grape each time the clock strikes midnight. The idea is that this will bring people 12 lucky months in the year ahead. Walking with an empty suitcase In some South American countries like Colombia, you might see some people on New Year’s Eve walking around with an empty suitcase. Some hold the belief that taking a “suitcase walk” means they will have a year full of adventures. 21. Why do Danish smash plates on New Year’s Eve? A To have fun. B. To honor a poet. C. To celebrate the harvest. D. To bring good luck. 22. What do Spanish do when the clocks hit midnight on New Year’s Eve? A. They exchange gifts. B. They eat grapes. C. They dress up as bears. D. They drop halls from high places. 23. Which country has the tradition of carrying empty suitcases on New Year’s Eve? A. Denmark. B. USA. C. Colombia. D. Spain. B Some people travel because they want to go to warm places for winter vacations or because they want to visit art museums in Europe. But other people travel simply because they have a passion for it. Luisa Yu, a 79-year-old woman, fell in love with travel as a young girl in the province of Leyte in the Philippines when she watched movies. “I saw the beautiful scenery, the rivers and the mountains, and that fascinated me,” Yu said. “That’s why I always thought someday I would go to these places and travel.” At 23, as an exchange student studying medical technologies in the US, Yu decided that she wanted to visit all of the countries in the world, but visa restrictions (限制) didn’t allow her to travel outside of the country. It took Yu 15years to get her admission allowing her to travel internationally and there were times when she worked three jobs to save money to travel. She eventually took a part-time job as a travel agent, which gave her many more opportunities to travel to new places around the globe. For the past 50 years, Yu has been visiting countries across the world, even some that are very difficult to get into. She has tried dog meat when she visited the DPRK, explored the beaches of Somalia, and even skydived in Dubai when she was 73. “Everyone said, ‘Don’t go to Somalia, that’s dangerous,’” Yu said. “If I want to go somewhere, nobody can stop me. I want to do everything.” Yu achieved her goal to visit all of the 193 countries that are recognized by the UN, in November 2023. To date, there have only been around 400 people who have set out to achieve this amazing cause. Yu’s advice to people who love to travel is to just do it. “Don’t wait for anybody. If I keep on waiting, it will never happen, because the opportunity sometimes comes only once,” she said. 24. What inspired Luisa Yu’s passion for travel? A. The wonderful settings of the movies. B. The desire to take a winter vacation abroad. C. The dream of visiting art museums in Europe. D. The studying opportunities while taking trips. 25. What can we learn about Luisa Yu from paragraphs 4 and 5? A. She searched for fortune through travel. B. She longed to be a travel agent. C. She shot to fame by accident. D. She was fond of challenges. 26. Which of the following can best describe Luisa Yu? A. Tough-minded and devoted. B. Considerate and gifted. C. Humorous and knowledgeable. D. Responsible and powerful. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Meet Luisa Yu: One of 400 People Recognized by UN B. Follow Luisa Yu’s Example: Seeking Adventure on Traveling C. 79-Year-Old Woman Has Traveled to 193 Countries Around the World D. Travel Agent Surprises the World with the Longest of Travel Experience C Monarch butterflies (帝王蝶) are edging dangerously close to extinction despite a decision late last year to remove the orange-and-black insects from the endangered species list, a new study has found. An annual survey led by the World Wildlife Fund(WWF)of the species wintering in central Mexico found the second-lowest number of monarch butterflies on record, meaning they took up just 2.2 acres of regional forests, 59% less than during the 2022 — 2023 winter season. The findings are troubling to scientists determined to protect the species. Each year, monarch butterflies migrate (迁徙) thousands of miles from southern Canada and the northern and central US to the mountain forests of central Mexico. They require a large and healthy forest to protect them from winds, rain and low temperatures in the areas where they migrate for winter. Yet because of heat and drought brought on by climate change, scientists say, their natural habitat is quickly depleting. Scientists with the WWF considered this winter season’s findings serious and said they represented the second-smallest area taken up by monarch butterflies in Mexico since 1993. What’s worse, in recent years, their breeding areas in Canada and the US have seen a reduction in milkweed leaves where female monarch butterflies lay their eggs. “Land-use changes in the United States, combined with the widespread use of chemicals, also contributed to the loss of milkweed and other plants that adult monarch butterflies feed on,” the WWF said. Monarch butterflies play an important role in maintaining plant ecosystems and are also an important food source for birds, small animals and other insects, according to the National Park Service. It’s necessary that all governments, communities, scientists, and others continue to strengthen our protection efforts to support their unique migration. 28. Why do monarch butterflies fly to central Mexico each year? A. To spend winter. B. To lay eggs. C. To search for shelter. D. To escape from enemies. 29 What does the underlined word “depleting” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Shifting. B. Disappearing. C. Recovering. D. Increasing. 30. What may have nothing to do with the reduction in monarch butterflies’ number? A. The loss of food sources. B. The widespread use of chemicals. C. The land-use changes in the United States. D. The threat of being eaten by other animals. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To raise people’s awareness about climate change. B. To call for more measures to protect monarch butterflies. C. To inform people of the serious situation of monarch butterflies. D. To prove monarch butterflies should be on the endangered species list. D Taking between 9,000 and 10,000 steps per day appears to reduce the risk of an early death or heart-related event, adding reason to an idea that has been considered as unscientific. The exact origin of the commonly held belief that people should aim for 10,000 steps a day is unclear, but it has been linked to a marketing plan promoting pedometers (计步器) in Japan. Now, a study by Matthew Ahmadi at the University of Sydney, Australia, and his colleagues suggests the figure could hold some truth. The team studied more than 72,000 participants, with an average age of 61, in the UK Biobank study as they wore a movement-tracking accelerometer (加速度计) on their wrists for one week. “We were able to know their daily steps,” says Ahmadi. The participants were then tracked for an average of just under seven years. During that time period, 1,633 people died and 6,190 heart-related events occurred. After adjusting other factors that could influence the risk of illness or death over that period—such as diet quality, smoking and doing other forms of exercise, the researchers found out that the best number of steps per day appears to be between 9,000-and 10,000, with the benefits then starting to tail off. Doing so was linked to a 39% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period and a 21% lower risk of a heart-related event. “It does appear to support the belief that the originally non-evidence based 10,000 steps target may indeed be about right,” says Dale Esliger at Loughborough University in the UK. However while the study was “extremely well designed” with “careful methods and statistical analysis”, Esliger says wrist-worn accelerometers aren’t always the best indicator of step count. The researchers also didn’t consider the number of steps taken per minute. “It’s possible that around 6,000 steps performed at a higher pace may be just as health protective as 10,000 slower steps,” says Esliger. 32. What’s the finding of the study? A. More than 10,000 steps a day do harm to the body. B. 21% of the participants died of heart-related events. C. Walking 10,000 steps a day benefits physical health. D. Hitting the target of 10,000 steps a day makes no sense. 33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. How the study is carried out. B. Whether a previous belief is true. C. What is concluded about the study. D. Why other factors should be removed. 34. What is Esliger’s attitude towards the study? A. Objective. B. Unconcerned. C. Favorable. D. Doubtful. 35. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A science magazine. B. A technology report. C. A history book. D. An educational website. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever tried to persuade a friend to do what he didn’t really want to?

Everyone in the class was discussing what gift they should give to their beloved moms. Their teacher, Ms. Jenkins, was instructing them to make pretty postcards with a soulful message. On Monday morning, Ms. Jenkins entered the classroom. Before she could say something to greet the kids as usual, 8-year-old Simon raised his hand as quickly as possible. “Yes, Simon?” asked the teacher with a questioning look and the big smile often hanging on her face. “Excuse me, Ms. Jenkins. What did you get for Mother’s Day?” he inquired. All his classmates looked at their teacher and Ms. Jenkins smiled again, struggling to hide her sadness, which flashed across her face. “Sadly, nothing. Simon, I don’t have kids.” Simon felt sorry for his teacher. He could not figure why. It seemed unfair that she didn’t receive anything for Mother’s Day when she was surrounded by kids all the time. She should have received something. Suddenly a good idea hit him. That afternoon, school over, Simon flew home like a rabbit. After having finished counting the few dollars in his piggy bank, he asked his mother to take him to the flower shop nearby. When they got in the car, Simon explained to his mother what he would do. Having understood the whole story, his mother looked at him with a loving expression. The following day, Simon arrived at his classroom with a bunch of flowers and presented it to Ms. Jenkins with a bright smile. “I know you’re not a mother, but you treat us with kindness, affection and patience. You surely deserve a Mother’s Day gift, too,” he said to his teacher, whose jaw dropped in shock. The other kids applauded as Simon hugged Ms. Jenkins. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Astonished and joyful, Ms. Jenkins stood there still. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The other kids came up one by one. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 英 语 试 题 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

The same goes for the New Year. Let’s take a look at some unique New Year traditions from around the world. Smashing (打碎) plates If you walked out of your front door to find a load of smashed plates, you might be a bit confused. But that’s exactly what people in Denmark hope to find after midnight, as it represents good luck. Danish people go and smash a plate in front of a friend’s door on New Year’s Eve to bring good luck over the next 12 months. Dropping things In New York City, Times Square is the centre of the countdown to midnight. But the thing that everyone is looking forward to is called the “ball drop”, which is when a glowing (发光) ball is lowered down a big flag pole (旗杆), marking the start of the New Year. Other cities in America now have their own traditions of dropping things on New Year’s Eve. For example, in Vincennes, Indiana, people drop watermelons from high places. Eating grapes When the clocks hit midnight in Spain, you’ll find people reaching for grapes. This is because there is a tradition of eating one grape each time the clock strikes midnight. The idea is that this will bring people 12 lucky months in the year ahead. Walking with an empty suitcase In some South American countries like Colombia, you might see some people on New Year’s Eve walking around with an empty suitcase. Some hold the belief that taking a “suitcase walk” means they will have a year full of adventures. 21. Why do Danish smash plates on New Year’s Eve? A. To have fun. B. To honor a poet. C. To celebrate the harvest. D. To bring good luck. 22. What do Spanish do when the clocks hit midnight on New Year’s Eve? A. They exchange gifts. B. They eat grapes. C. They dress up as bears. D. They drop halls from high places. 23. Which country has the tradition of carrying empty suitcases on New Year’s Eve? A. Denmark. B. USA. C. Colombia. D. Spain. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个不同的新年传统。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“If you walked out of your front door to find a load of smashed plates, you might be a bit confused. But that’s exactly what people in Denmark hope to find after midnight, as it represents good luck.(如果你走出前门，发现一大堆打碎的盘子，你可能会有点困惑。但这正是丹麦人希望在午夜后找到的东西，因为它代表着好运)”可知，丹麦人要在除夕打碎盘子是为了带来好运。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When the clocks hit midnight in Spain, you’ll find people reaching for grapes. This is because there is a tradition of eating one grape each time the clock strikes midnight.(当西班牙午夜钟声敲响时，你会发现人们伸手去摘葡萄。这是因为有一种传统，每当午夜钟声敲响时就吃一颗葡萄)”可知，当新年钟声敲响午夜时，西班牙人会吃葡萄。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In some South American countries like Colombia, you might see some people on New Year’s Eve walking around with an empty suitcase. Some hold the belief that taking a “suitcase walk” means they will have a year full of adventures.(在一些南美国家，比如哥伦比亚，你可能会看到一些人在新年前夜拎着一个空箱子走来走去。一些人认为，“旅行箱漫步”意味着他们将度过充满冒险的一年)”可知，哥伦比亚有在除夕夜提空箱子的传统。故选C。 B Some people travel because they want to go to warm places for winter vacations or because they want to visit art museums in Europe. But other people travel simply because they have a passion for it. Luisa Yu, a 79-year-old woman, fell in love with travel as a young girl in the province of Leyte in the Philippines when she watched movies. “I saw the beautiful scenery, the rivers and the mountains, and that fascinated me,” Yu said. “That’s why I always thought someday I would go to these places and travel.” At 23, as an exchange student studying medical technologies in the US, Yu decided that she wanted to visit all of the countries in the world, but visa restrictions (限制) didn’t allow her to travel outside of the country. It took Yu 15years to get her admission allowing her to travel internationally and there were times when she worked three jobs to save money to travel. She eventually took a part-time job as a travel agent, which gave her many more opportunities to travel to new places around the globe. For the past 50 years, Yu has been visiting countries across the world, even some that are very difficult to get into. She has tried dog meat when she visited the DPRK, explored the beaches of Somalia, and even skydived in Dubai when she was 73. “Everyone said, ‘Don’t go to Somalia, that’s dangerous,’” Yu said. “If I want to go somewhere, nobody can stop me. I want to do everything.” Yu achieved her goal to visit all of the 193 countries that are recognized by the UN, in November 2023. To date, there have only been around 400 people who have set out to achieve this amazing cause. Yu’s advice to people who love to travel is to just do it. “Don’t wait for anybody. If I keep on waiting, it will never happen, because the opportunity sometimes comes only once,” she said. 24. What inspired Luisa Yu’s passion for travel? A. The wonderful settings of the movies. B. The desire to take a winter vacation abroad. C. The dream of visiting art museums in Europe. D. The studying opportunities while taking trips. 25. What can we learn about Luisa Yu from paragraphs 4 and 5? A. She searched for fortune through travel. B. She longed to be a travel agent. C. She shot to fame by accident. D. She was fond of challenges. 26. Which of the following can best describe Luisa Yu? A. Tough-minded and devoted. B. Considerate and gifted. C. Humorous and knowledgeable. D. Responsible and powerful. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Meet Luisa Yu: One of 400 People Recognized by UN B. Follow Luisa Yu’s Example: Seeking Adventure on Traveling C. 79-Year-Old Woman Has Traveled to 193 Countries Around the World D. Travel Agent Surprises the World with the Longest of Travel Experience 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了79岁的Luisa Yu在过去的50年中去过了世界上193个国家，介讲述了她的旅行经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Luisa Yu, a 79-year-old woman, fell in love with travel as a young girl in the province of Leyte in the Philippines when she watched movies. “I saw the beautiful scenery, the rivers and the mountains, and that fascinated me,” Yu said. “That’s why I always thought someday I would go to these places and travel.” (79岁的路易莎·余年轻时在菲律宾莱特省看电影时爱上了旅行。“我看到了美丽的风景，河流和山脉，这让我着迷，”余说。“这就是为什么我总想有一天我会去这些地方旅行。”)”可知，电影的美妙场景激发了路易莎·余对旅行的热情。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It took Yu 15years to get her admission allowing her to travel internationally and there were times when she worked three jobs to save money to travel. She eventually took a part-time job as a travel agent, which gave her many more opportunities to travel to new places around the globe. (余花了15年时间才拿到出国旅行的资格，为了攒钱旅行，她有时打三份工。她最终找到了一份旅行社的兼职工作，这给了她更多的机会去世界各地的新地方旅行。)”以及第五段“For the past 50 years, Yu has been visiting countries across the world, even some that are very difficult to get into. She has tried dog meat when she visited the DPRK, explored the beaches of Somalia, and even skydived in Dubai when she was 73. “Everyone said, ‘Don’t go to Somalia, that’s dangerous,’” Yu said. “If I want to go somewhere, nobody can stop me. I want to do everything.” (在过去的50年里，余一直在访问世界各地的国家，甚至是一些很难进入的国家。她在访问朝鲜时尝过狗肉，在索马里的海滩上探险，甚至在73岁时在迪拜跳伞。“每个人都说，‘不要去索马里，那里很危险，’”余说。“如果我想去某个地方，没有人能阻止我。我什么都想做。)”可知，路易莎·余喜欢挑战。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“It took Yu 15years to get her admission allowing her to travel internationally and there were times when she worked three jobs to save money to travel. (余花了15年时间才拿到出国旅行资格，为了攒钱旅行，她有时打三份工。)”以及倒数第二段“Yu achieved her goal to visit all of the 193 countries that are recognized by the UN, in November 2023. To date, there have only been around 400 people who have set out to achieve this amazing cause. (2023年11月，她实现了访问联合国承认的193个国家的目标。到目前为止，只有大约400人开始实现这一惊人的事业。)”可知，路易莎意志坚强且投入。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Yu achieved her goal to visit all of the 193 countries that are recognized by the UN, in November 2023. To date, there have only been around 400 people who have set out to achieve this amazing cause. (2023年11月，她实现了访问联合国承认的193个国家的目标。到目前为止，只有大约400人开始实现这一惊人的事业。)”结合文章主要讲述了79岁的Luisa Yu在过去的50年中去过了世界上193个国家，介讲述了她的旅行经历。可知，C选项“79岁的老妇人去过世界上193个国家”最符合文章标题。故选C。 C Monarch butterflies (帝王蝶) are edging dangerously close to extinction despite a decision late last year to remove the orange-and-black insects from the endangered species list, a new study has found. An annual survey led by the World Wildlife Fund(WWF)of the species wintering in central Mexico found the second-lowest number of monarch butterflies on record, meaning they took up just 2.2 acres of regional forests, 59% less than during the 2022 — 2023 winter season. The findings are troubling to scientists determined to protect the species. Each year, monarch butterflies migrate (迁徙) thousands of miles from southern Canada and the northern and central US to the mountain forests of central Mexico. They require a large and healthy forest to protect them from winds, rain and low temperatures in the areas where they migrate for winter. Yet because of heat and drought brought on by climate change, scientists say, their natural habitat is quickly depleting. Scientists with the WWF considered this winter season’s findings serious and said they represented the second-smallest area taken up by monarch butterflies in Mexico since 1993. What’s worse, in recent years, their breeding areas in Canada and the US have seen a reduction in milkweed leaves where female monarch butterflies lay their eggs. “Land-use changes in the United States, combined with the widespread use of chemicals, also contributed to the loss of milkweed and other plants that adult monarch butterflies feed on,” the WWF said. Monarch butterflies play an important role in maintaining plant ecosystems and are also an important food source for birds, small animals and other insects, according to the National Park Service. It’s necessary that all governments, communities, scientists, and others continue to strengthen our protection efforts to support their unique migration. 28. Why do monarch butterflies fly to central Mexico each year? A. To spend winter. B. To lay eggs. C. To search for shelter. D. To escape from enemies. 29. What does the underlined word “depleting” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Shifting. B. Disappearing. C. Recovering. D. Increasing. 30. What may have nothing to do with the reduction in monarch butterflies’ number? A. The loss of food sources. B. The widespread use of chemicals. C. The land-use changes in the United States. D. The threat of being eaten by other animals. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To raise people’s awareness about climate change. B. To call for more measures to protect monarch butterflies. C. To inform people of the serious situation of monarch butterflies. D. To prove monarch butterflies should be on the endangered species list. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了帝王蝶在墨西哥森林中的数量下降到了历史第二低的记录，并介绍了这一现象引起的担忧和研究结果，号召人们采取更多措施保护帝王蝶。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Each year, monarch butterflies migrate(迁徙)thousands of miles from southern Canada and the northern and central US to the mountain forests of central Mexico. They require a large and healthy forest to protect them from winds, rain and low temperatures in the areas where they migrate for winter. (每年，帝王蝶从加拿大南部和美国北部和中部迁徙数千英里到墨西哥中部的山区森林。它们需要大片健康的森林来保护它们免受冬季迁徙地区的风、雨和低温的影响。)”可知，帝王蝶每年都会飞到墨西哥中部是为了过冬。故选A。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。Yet表示转折，根据上文的“Each year, monarch butterflies migrate(迁徙)thousands of miles from southern Canada and the northern and central US to the mountain forests of central Mexico. They require a large and healthy forest to protect them from winds, rain and low temperatures in the areas where they migrate for winter. (每年，帝王蝶从加拿大南部和美国北部和中部迁徙数千英里到墨西哥中部的山区森林。它们需要大片健康的森林来保护它们免受冬季迁徙地区的风、雨和低温的影响。)”可知，帝王蝶需要森林的保护来过冬，结合划线句“Yet because of heat and drought brought on by climate change, scientists say, their natural habitat is quickly depleting. (然而，由于气候变化带来的炎热和干旱，科学家们说，它们的自然栖息地正在迅速depleting。)”可推断，自然栖息地因为炎热和干旱正在迅速消失，故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“What’s worse, in recent years, their breeding areas in Canada and the US have seen a reduction in milkweed leaves where female monarch butterflies lay their eggs. “Land-use changes in the United States, combined with the widespread use of chemicals, also contributed to the loss of milkweed and other plants that adult monarch butterflies feed on,” the WWF said. (更糟糕的是，近年来，它们在加拿大和美国的繁殖区，雌性帝王蝶产卵的马利筋叶子减少了。世界自然基金会说：“美国土地利用的变化，加上化学品的广泛使用，也导致了乳草和其他成年帝王蝶赖以为生的植物的减少。”)”可知，被动物吃掉的威胁不是帝王蝶数量下降的原因。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Monarch butterflies play an important role in maintaining plant ecosystems and are also an important food source for birds, small animals and other insects, according to the National Park Service. It’s necessary that all governments, communities, scientists, and others continue to strengthen our protection efforts to support their unique migration. ( 据美国国家公园管理局称，黑帝王蝶在维持植物生态系统方面发挥着重要作用，也是鸟类、小动物和其他昆虫的重要食物来源。所有政府、社区、科学家和其他人都有必要继续加强我们的保护工作，以支持他们独特的迁移。)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是号召人们采取更多措施保护帝王蝶。故选B。 D Taking between 9,000 and 10,000 steps per day appears to reduce the risk of an early death or heart-related event, adding reason to an idea that has been considered as unscientific. The exact origin of the commonly held belief that people should aim for 10,000 steps a day is unclear, but it has been linked to a marketing plan promoting pedometers (计步器) in Japan. Now, a study by Matthew Ahmadi at the University of Sydney, Australia, and his colleagues suggests the figure could hold some truth. The team studied more than 72,000 participants, with an average age of 61, in the UK Biobank study as they wore a movement-tracking accelerometer (加速度计) on their wrists for one week. “We were able to know their daily steps,” says Ahmadi. The participants were then tracked for an average of just under seven years. During that time period, 1,633 people died and 6,190 heart-related events occurred. After adjusting other factors that could influence the risk of illness or death over that period—such as diet quality, smoking and doing other forms of exercise, the researchers found out that the best number of steps per day appears to be between 9,000-and 10,000, with the benefits then starting to tail off. Doing so was linked to a 39% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period and a 21% lower risk of a heart-related event. “It does appear to support the belief that the originally non-evidence based 10,000 steps target may indeed be about right,” says Dale Esliger at Loughborough University in the UK. However, while the study was “extremely well designed” with “careful methods and statistical analysis”, Esliger says wrist-worn accelerometers aren’t always the best indicator of step count. The researchers also didn’t consider the number of steps taken per minute. “It’s possible that around 6,000 steps performed at a higher pace may be just as health protective as 10,000 slower steps,” says Esliger. 32. What’s the finding of the study? A. More than 10,000 steps a day do harm to the body. B 21% of the participants died of heart-related events. C. Walking 10,000 steps a day benefits physical health. D. Hitting the target of 10,000 steps a day makes no sense. 33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. How the study is carried out. B. Whether a previous belief is true. C.

Where is the text probably taken from? A. A science magazine. B. A technology report. C. A history book. D. An educational website. 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲，研究表明每天走10000步有益于身体健康。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段“Taking between 9,000 and 10,000 steps per day appears to reduce the risk of an early death or heart-related event, adding reason to an idea that has been considered as unscientific.(每天走9000到10000步似乎可以降低早逝或心脏相关事件的风险，这为一种被认为不科学的想法增添了理由。)”以及文章第四段“After adjusting other factors that could influence the risk of illness or death over that period—such as diet quality, smoking and doing other forms of exercise, the researchers found out that the best number of steps per day appears to be between 9,000-and 10,000, with the benefits then starting to tail off. Doing so was linked to a 39% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period and a 21% lower risk of a heart-related event. (在调整了这段时间内可能影响患病或死亡风险的其它因素后，如饮食质量、吸烟和其他形式的锻炼，研究人员发现，每天的最佳步数似乎在9000到10000步之间，然后益处开始减弱。这样做可以使随访期间的死亡风险降低39%，心脏相关事件的风险降低21%。)”可知，Matthew Ahmadi的研究发现每天走10000步有益于身体健康。故选C项。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第四段“After adjusting other factors that could influence the risk of illness or death over that period—such as diet quality, smoking and doing other forms of exercise, the researchers found out that the best number of steps per day appears to be between 9,000-and 10,000, with the benefits then starting to tail off. Doing so was linked to a 39% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period and a 21% lower risk of a heart-related event. (在调整了这段时间内可能影响患病或死亡风险的其它因素后，如饮食质量、吸烟和其他形式的锻炼，研究人员发现，每天的最佳步数似乎在9000到10000步之间，然后益处开始减弱。这样做可以使随访期间的死亡风险降低39%，心脏相关事件的风险降低21%。)”可知，本段主要讲这项研究得出的结论。故选C项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“However, while the study was ‘extremely well designed’ with‘careful methods and statistical analysis’, Esliger says wrist-worn accelerometers aren’t always the best indicator of step count. The researchers also didn’t consider the number of steps taken per minute.(然而，尽管这项研究‘设计得非常好’，有‘谨慎的方法和统计分析’，Esliger说，手腕上佩戴的加速度计并不总是步数的最佳指标。研究人员也没有考虑每分钟所走的步数。)”可知，Esliger对该研究持有怀疑态度。故选D项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第二段“The team studied more than 72,000 participants, with an average age of 61, in the UK Biobank study as they wore a movement-tracking accelerometer（加速度计）on their wrists for one week. ‘We were able to know their daily steps,’ says Ahmadi. The participants were then tracked for an average of just under seven years.(在英国生物银行的研究中，该团队研究了72000多名平均年龄为61岁的参与者，他们在手腕上佩戴运动跟踪加速度计一周。Ahmadi说：‘我们能够知道他们每天的步伐。’。然后对参与者进行平均不到七年的跟踪。)”以及上下文可知，本文主要讲的是一份科学研究结果，所以可能出现在一本科学杂志中。故选A项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever tried to persuade a friend to do what he didn’t really want to?

If so, you may have made them uncomfortable and even annoyed, and crossed a boundary (界限). (你是否曾经试图说服一个朋友去做他并不想做的事？如果是这样，你可能会让他们感到不舒服甚至恼火，并且越过了界限)”可知，本句承接上文，继续说明界限的定义和作用。故D选项“界限是人们为保护自己而设定的限制”符合语境，故选D。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Apart from their words, it can also be helpful to pay attention to their tone (语气) and body language.(除了他们的语言，注意他们的语气和肢体语言也会有所帮助)”以及后文“it could indicate that they’re not very comfortable with what you’re asking of them(这可能表明他们对你的问题不太满意)”可知，本句主要是在说明感知对方对问题不满的表现，F选项中tone对应上文tone。故F选项“如果他们的语气不明确，或者他们试图改变话题”符合语境，故选F。 38题详解】 根据本段内容“Every individual needs to set boundaries based on their own preferences and abilities. It’s important to respect others’ boundaries and avoid finding fault with them even if they seem silly to you or are different from what you consider acceptable.(每个人都需要根据自己的喜好和能力来设定界限。重要的是要尊重他人的界限，避免挑剔他们，即使他们在你看来很愚蠢，或者与你认为可以接受的不同)”可知，本段的主旨是认识到每个人的需求不同，界限也不同。故C选项“记住每个人的需求都是不同的”符合语境，故选C。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Deal with your emotional reactions. When someone sets a boundary in their relationship with you, you may find yourself feeling let down, which can cause you to feel hurt, angry, shocked or embarrassed.(处理好你的情绪反应。当有人在他们和你的关系中设定界限时，你可能会发现自己感到失望，这会让你感到受伤、生气、震惊或尴尬)”可知，上文提到了受伤、生气、震惊或尴尬的感觉，本句承接上文，说明如何处理这些感受。故E选项“反思一下你为什么会有这种感觉是很有帮助的”符合语境，故选E。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Try to understand the reason behind the boundary. When you disagree with someone’s boundaries, exploring the reason why they’re setting them can help you understand their opinion better. If the boundary seems too rigid(僵硬的), you can offer your opinion.(试着去理解界限背后的原因。当你不同意某人的界限时，探究他们设定界限的原因可以帮助你更好地理解他们的观点。如果界限太过严格，你可以提出自己的意见)”可知，本句主要说明如何应对别人的界限。故G选项“要友善，愿意让别人决定什么对他们是最好的”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Born to be likeable, my older sister grew up with lots of friends, parties and attention.

Everyone in the class was discussing what gift they should give to their beloved moms. Their teacher, Ms. Jenkins, was instructing them to make pretty postcards with a soulful message. On Monday morning, Ms. Jenkins entered the classroom. Before she could say something to greet the kids as usual, 8-year-old Simon raised his hand as quickly as possible. “Yes, Simon?” asked the teacher with a questioning look and the big smile often hanging on her face. “Excuse me, Ms. Jenkins. What did you get for Mother’s Day?” he inquired. All his classmates looked at their teacher and Ms. Jenkins smiled again, struggling to hide her sadness, which flashed across her face. “Sadly, nothing. Simon, I don’t have kids.” Simon felt sorry for his teacher. He could not figure why. It seemed unfair that she didn’t receive anything for Mother’s Day when she was surrounded by kids all the time. She should have received something. Suddenly a good idea hit him. That afternoon, school over, Simon flew home like a rabbit. After having finished counting the few dollars in his piggy bank, he asked his mother to take him to the flower shop nearby. When they got in the car, Simon explained to his mother what he would do. Having understood the whole story, his mother looked at him with a loving expression. The following day, Simon arrived at his classroom with a bunch of flowers and presented it to Ms. Jenkins with a bright smile. “I know you’re not a mother, but you treat us with kindness, affection and patience. You surely deserve a Mother’s Day gift, too,” he said to his teacher, whose jaw dropped in shock. The other kids applauded as Simon hugged Ms. Jenkins. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Astonished and joyful, Ms. Jenkins stood there still. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The other kids came up one by one. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Astonished and joyful, Ms. Jenkins stood there still. Her eyes welled up with tears as she tightly held the vibrant bouquet, overwhelmed by the unexpected surprise and the genuine love from her student. She had never imagined that her role as a teacher could be acknowledged in such a heartfelt way on Mother’s Day. Simon’s words echoed in her mind, reminding her that the love and care she bestowed upon her students were truly valued. As she regained her calmness, she pulled Simon into a warm embrace, whispering her deepest gratitude into his ear. The other kids came up one by one. Some brought handmade cards with glitter and hearts, others offered carefully crafted paper flowers, and a few shared heartfelt hugs. The atmosphere in the classroom was filled with a sense of warmth and tenderness. Ms. Jenkins, moved to tears, thanked each child individually, making sure they knew how cherished and valued they were. That Mother’s Day, Ms. Jenkins received the greatest gift of all—a reminder that the seeds of love and kindness she sowed daily blossomed into a garden of gratitude in the hearts of her children. And as for Simon, he learned an invaluable lesson about empathy and the power of small acts of kindness, which can brighten someone’s world immeasurably. 【解析】 【导语】本文以母亲节礼物为线索展开，讲述了随着母亲节的临近，老师詹金斯指导学生们制作带有爱心留言的漂亮贺卡。西蒙得知老师没有孩子，不会收到母亲节礼物，感到难过，并决定为老师做些什么。第二天，西蒙带着买来的鲜花回到教室，满怀笑容地将这束花送给了詹金森老师，表达了他的感激之情。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“詹金斯既惊讶又高兴，她站在那里一动不动。”可知，第一段可描写詹金斯女士在收到西蒙的花束之后内心的震动与喜悦，以及她如何在孩子们面前表达了她的感动和对学生们的感激之情。 ②由第二段首句内容“其他的孩子一个接一个地上来了。”可知，第二段可描写在西蒙的带动下，其他学生也纷纷上前，用各自的方式向詹金斯女士表达母亲节的祝福和感激，詹金斯女士收到了最好的母亲节礼物。 2.续写线索：震惊与喜悦——表达感谢——学生分别送礼物——极度感动——感悟升华 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①重新获得：regain./recover ②认可：acknowledge/recognize ③照亮：brighten/light up 情绪类 ①真诚的：genuine/sincere ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Her eyes welled up with tears as she tightly held the vibrant bouquet, overwhelmed by the unexpected surprise and the genuine love from her student.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句和过去分词作状语) 【高分句型2】And as for Simon, he learned an invaluable lesson about empathy and the power of small acts of kindness, which can brighten someone’s world immeasurably.
