(A)
Read the post from Paul on the “Answers 4U” website.
Hello everyone,
I’m studying journalism in university. In the first term, everyone has to do a course called“Creative Thinking and Writing”. At first, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem — but now I’m really anxious because I’m not a creative person at all! I’m scared that I’m going to look stupid and I won’t pass the course, or else I’ll only get through it with great difficulty.
Can anyone help me? Some tips on being creative would be good.
Thanks a lot.
Paul
Read what Sarah writes in reply to Paul.
Hi Paul,
I read your post and can completely relate to it. I’ve been in exactly the same situation — I even did a journalism course, just like you. So here are my thoughts.
You say “I’m not a creative person”. Look — everyone’s creative. If you tell yourself you’re not creative, you’ll easily start to believe it. So, the first thing to do is: stop thinking like that. People sometimes talk about“thinking outside the box”. Actually, the box is the way we’ve been brought up to see problems. A central difficulty in our ability to think outside the box is that we must always have a “right” answer, which limits creative thinking. So, try to stop seeing things as “right” or “wrong”.
Another problem is that we often find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance to grow. While you’ re thinking, just try to brainstorm ideas in an enjoyable way — then choose the best ideas later.
And don’t worry about looking stupid. If you try an idea and other people laugh at your idea, that’s their problem, not yours. Try to look at the course as a way to have fun. Work hard, don’t hold yourself back, do everything with great interest, and you’ll be fine.
Anyway, enough from me. I hope these ideas help.
Sarah
21. What problem does Paul have?
A. He worries about his career life.
B. He considers himself not creative.
C. He has difficulty understanding things.
D. He will fail his course however hard he works.
22. What can we learn from Sarah’s reply?
A. She doesn’t get why Paul is afraid.
B. She believes each question has the right answer.
C. She thinks people should often reflect on their ideas.
D. She thinks people should think freely without fear of judgement.
23. From the passage we know that ________.
A. Paul and Sarah are strangers B. Paul and Sarah have the same idea
C. Paul and Sarah are college classmates D. Paul and Sarah are from the same place

(C)
At your next meeting, wait for a pause in conversation and try to measure how long it lasts.
Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at most. But while this pattern may be universal, our awareness of silence differs dramatically across cultures.
What one culture considers a confusing or awkward pause may be seen by others as a valuable moment of reflection and sign of respect for what the last speaker has said. Research in Dutch and also in English found that when a silence in conversation stretches to four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds — nearly twice as long as in Americans’ meetings.
In Japan, it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all. It’s already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you’re repairing that failure by using words.
In the US, it may originate from the history of colonial (殖民地) America as a crossroads of many different races. When you have a complex of difference, it’s hard to establish common understanding unless you talk and there’s understandably a kind of anxiety unless people are verbally engaged to establish a common life. This applies also to some extent to London.
In contrast, when there’s more homogeneity, perhaps it’s easier for some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well acquainted with.
27. Which of the following people might have the longest silence in conversation?
A. The Dutch. B. Americans.
C. The English. D. The Japanese.
28. What might the Japanese agree with in a conversation?
A. Speaking more gives the upper hand.
B Speak out what you have in your mind.
C. Great minds think alike without words.
D. The shorter talking silence, the better.
29. What can we learn from the text?
A. A four second silence in conversation is universal.
B. It’s hard for Americans to reach a common agreement.
C. English speakers are more talkative than Japanese speakers.
D. The closer we and our family are, the easier the silence appears.
30. What does the underlined word “homogeneity” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Similarity. B. Contradiction.
C. Diversity. D. Misunderstanding.
Section C 8%
Directions: Read the following passage and complete the brief outline that follows. Write one word or more in each space.
Many of us invest valuable time, energy and money planning our vacations. We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.
Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK — but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided. A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trip s that have too many components (组成部分). Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days, and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list. It sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness — time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and absorb our travel experiences. Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to find a good flight deal, how to get from A to B, or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey. These issues may seem important, but our psychological state of mind is far more important.
Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules. First, choose your travel companions wisely, because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right companions. Second, don’t spend your vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive so as to keep a positive mood. Third, shop wisely, for meaningful experiences provide more long-term happiness than physical possessions.
Outline: The main idea of the passage: How can we ____31____?
I.____32____ of vacations
II.____33____
____34____
Unnecessary worries about some detailed problems
III.Some rules to be followed
1.Choosing right companions
2.Select proper destinations
3.Shopping wisely

Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Read the post from Paul on the “Answers 4U” website.
Hello everyone,
I’m studying journalism in university. In the first term everyone has to do a course called“Creative Thinking and Writing”. At first, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem — but now I’m really anxious because I’m not a creative person at all! I’m scared that I’m going to look stupid and I won’t pass the course, or else I’ll only get through it with great difficulty.
Can anyone help me? Some tips on being creative would be good.
Thanks a lot.
Paul
Read what Sarah writes in reply to Paul.
Hi Paul,
I read your post and can completely relate to it. I’ve been in exactly the same situation — I even did a journalism course, just like you. So here are my thoughts.
You say “I’m not a creative person”. Look — everyone’s creative. If you tell yourself you’re not creative, you’ll easily start to believe it. So, the first thing to do is: stop thinking like that. People sometimes talk about“thinking outside the box”. Actually, the box is the way we’ve been brought up to see problems. A central difficulty in our ability to think outside the box is that we must always have a “right” answer, which limits creative thinking. So, try to stop seeing things as “right” or “wrong”.
Another problem is that we often find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance to grow. While you’ re thinking, just try to brainstorm ideas in an enjoyable way — then choose the best ideas later.
And don’t worry about looking stupid. If you try an idea and other people laugh at your idea, that’s their problem, not yours. Try to look at the course as a way to have fun. Work hard, don’t hold yourself back, do everything with great interest, and you’ll be fine.
Anyway, enough from me. I hope these ideas help.
Sarah

(C)
At your next meeting, wait for a pause in conversation and try to measure how long it lasts.
Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at most. But while this pattern may be universal, our awareness of silence differs dramatically across cultures.
What one culture considers a confusing or awkward pause may be seen by others as a valuable moment of reflection and sign of respect for what the last speaker has said. Research in Dutch and also in English found that when a silence in conversation stretches to four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds — nearly twice as long as in Americans’ meetings.
In Japan, it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all. It’s already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you’re repairing that failure by using words.
In the US, it may originate from the history of colonial (殖民地) America as a crossroads of many different races. When you have a complex of difference, it’s hard to establish common understanding unless you talk and there’s understandably a kind of anxiety unless people are verbally engaged to establish a common life. This applies also to some extent to London.
In contrast, when there’s more homogeneity, perhaps it’s easier for some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well acquainted with.
27. Which of the following people might have the longest silence in conversation?
A. The Dutch. B. Americans.
C. The English. D. The Japanese.
28. What might the Japanese agree with in a conversation?
A. Speaking more gives the upper hand.
B. Speak out what you have in your mind.
C. Great minds think alike without words.
D. The shorter talking silence, the better.
29. What can we learn from the text?
A. A four second silence in conversation is universal.
B. It’s hard for Americans to reach a common agreement.
C. English speakers are more talkative than Japanese speakers.
D. The closer we and our family are, the easier the silence appears.
30. What does the underlined word “homogeneity” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Similarity. B. Contradiction.
C. Diversity. D. Misunderstanding.
【答案】27. D 28. C 29. D 30. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了谈话中的沉默文化。尽管交谈中出现停顿是普遍存在的,但我们对沉默的认识在不同的文化中有着巨大的差异。不同的文化中沉默时间不同,对于沉默的看法也不同。相比而言,亲密的朋友和家人之间更容易出现沉默。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段首句“Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at most.(对于说英语的人来说,可能最多一两秒钟)”及第三段最后两句“Research in Dutch and also in English found that when a silence in conversation stretches to four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds — nearly twice as long as in Americans’ meetings.(荷兰语和英语的研究发现,当对话中的沉默持续4秒时,人们就会开始感到不安。相反,另一项针对商务会议的研究发现,日本人对8.2秒的沉默感到满意,这几乎是美国人会议时间的两倍)”可知,日本人可能在谈话中有最长沉默。故选D。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段首句“In Japan, it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all.(在日本,人们认为最好的交流方式是什么都不说)”可推知,日本人在对话中可能会同意“心有灵犀一点通”。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well acquainted with.(例如,在你最亲密的朋友和家人面前,保持沉默比和你不太熟悉的人在一起更容易)”可推知,亲密的人之间更容易出现沉默,因此我们和家人越亲密,沉默越容易出现。故选D。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文的举例“For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well acquainted with.(例如,在你最亲密的朋友和家人面前,保持沉默比和你不太熟悉的人在一起更容易)”可推知,越亲密的人,越容易出现沉默,因此推断划线所在句意为“相比而言,当有更多相似时,也许沉默更容易出现”。由此可知,划线词意思与similarlity意义相近。故选A。
Section C 8%
Directions: Read the following passage and complete the brief outline that follows. Write one word or more in each space.
Many of us invest valuable time, energy and money planning our vacations. We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.
Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK — but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided. A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trip s that have too many components (组成部分). Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days, and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list. It sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness — time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and absorb our travel experiences. Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to find a good flight deal, how to get from A to B, or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey. These issues may seem important, but our psychological state of mind is far more important.
Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules. First, choose your travel companions wisely, because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right companions. Second, don’t spend your vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive so as to keep a positive mood. Third, shop wisely, for meaningful experiences provide more long-term happiness than physical possessions.
Outline: The main idea of the passage: How can we ____31____?
I.____32____ of vacations
II.____33____
____34____
Unnecessary worries about some detailed problems
III.Some rules to be followed
1.Choosing right companions

【答案】31. enhance our vacation experience
32. Benefits
33. Mistakes to avoid
34. Over-scheduling vacations
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了度假的重要性和如何更好地享受假期。
【31题详解】
考查主旨大意。通读全文,结合第二段中“Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK—but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided.(然而,尽管有这些好处,我们中的许多人回到家后都觉得上次的假期还可以——但并不完美。为了改变这一点,应该避免一些错误)”和第三段中“Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules.(实际上,假期快乐是基于以下法则的)”可知,文章主要介绍了中假期应该避免的错误和享受快乐假期的法则。由此可知,本文是在告诉读者如何更好地享受假期,改善我们的假期体验,即How can we enhance our vacation experience。故填enhance our vacation experience。
【32题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第一段中“Many of us invest valuable time, energy and money planning our vacations. We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.(我们中的许多人花费宝贵的时间、精力和金钱来计划我们的假期。我们这样做是因为我们确信度假对我们有好处。研究毫无疑问地证明了这种感觉。假期可以帮助我们在工作中表现得更好,改善我们的睡眠质量,缓解我们的抑郁)”可知,第一段中主要介绍了假期带给我们的好处,如帮助我们在工作中表现得更好,改善我们的睡眠质量,缓解我们的抑郁等。所以第一段主要内容为“假期的好处”,即Benefits of vacations。故填Benefits。
【33题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第二段中“Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK — but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided.(然而,尽管有这些好处,我们中的许多人回到家的感觉是,我们的上一个假期还可以,但不是很好。为了改变这种情况,应该避免一些错误)”和其后“A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trip s that have too many components (组成部分).(度假规划者常犯的一个经典错误是试图通过规划包含过多组成部分的旅行来最大化金钱的价值)”和“Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to find a good flight deal, how to get from A to B, or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey.(另一个错误是,我们过于担心战略问题,比如如何找到合适的机票,如何从A地到达B地,或者在我们的旅程中增加或减少哪些目的地)”可知,第二段主要介绍了假期计划中要避免的错误。所以第二段主要内容为“要避免的错误”,即Mistakes to avoid。故填Mistakes to avoid。
【34题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第二段中“A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trip s that have too many components (组成部分). Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days, and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list. It sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness — time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and absorb our travel experiences. (度假规划者常犯的一个经典错误是试图通过规划包含过多组成部分的旅行来最大化金钱的价值。也许你正在计划一次欧洲之旅,在10天内游览七个城市,然后你意识到只需多花一点钱就可以再增加两个目的地。从理论上讲这听起来不错,但是从一个地方跳到另一个地方几乎不会给你机会去体验心理学家所说的“正念”——即花时间去感受我们的新环境,花时间去感受并吸收我们的旅行经历)”可知,第二段中讲到的第一个需要避免的错误是:对行程的过度规划,即Over-scheduling vacations。故填Over-scheduling vacations。

Directions: Complete the following sentences in English according to the sentences given in Chinese.
41. Every great achievement starts with ______.
每个伟大成就都始于尝试的决心。
【答案】determination to attempt
【解析】
【详解】考查名词和非谓语动词。表示“决心”应用determination,作宾语,表抽象概念,不可数;表示“尝试”应用attempt,修饰名词determination,需用动词不定式作后置定语。故填determination to attempt。

43. 新扩建的广场是以前的四倍大。(broaden)(汉译英)
______________________________________________________
【答案】The newly broadened square is four times the size of the previous one.
【解析】
【详解】考查倍数表达、过去分词以及形容词。根据句意,该句讲述的为客观事实,所以此处使用一般现在时,表示“广场”应为the square作主语,位于句首,the的首字母需大写,表示“新扩建的”应为newly broadened为过去分词短语作定语修饰名词square,其中newly为副词修饰过去分词broadened;表示“是”应为is,作谓语;表示“以前的四倍大”应为倍数表达,其中比较的是尺寸大小,所以此处应使用“倍数+the size of…”结构,表示“以前的(那一个)”应为the previous one,为比较对象,其中one指代的为square,所以,表示“以前的四倍大”应译为four times the size of the previous one作表语。故翻译为The newly broadened square is four times the size of the previous one.
44. 如果全中国的学校教材每年被循环使用一年,节约的费用可以援建约4万所希望小学。(cost) (汉译英)
______________________________________________________
【答案】If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year, the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools.
【解析】
【详解】考查if的主从句时态以及被动语态。根据句意可知,前半句是if引导的条件句,时态是一般现在时;主语“教材”和谓语“循环使用”构成被动关系,因此用一般现在时态的被动语态am/is/are +done表示;表示“全中国的学校教材”短语为the school textbooks across China;表示“被循环使用一年”用被动语态are recycled for an additional year;时间状语“每年”翻译成every year,置于句尾;故从句翻译为If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year;if的主语时态应该是一般将来时,本句谓语为情态动词,故用can原形做谓语;表示“节约的费用”表示为the saving costs;表示“可以援建”翻译为can help build;表示“约4万所希望小学”翻译为about 40000 Hope Primary Schools;故主句部分翻译为the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools。故整句翻译为If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year, the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools。

【答案】Small Changes Make an Ideal School Library
As a student of Mingqi High School, I am excited about the upcoming renovation of our library during the summer vacation. Among the many potential improvements, I particularly envision two important changes. Firstly, I hope to see more comfortable seating arrangements, including sofas and beanbags, to create a cozy reading environment. Secondly, I propose introducing a digital reading zone with computers and tablets, enabling students to access e-books and online resources effortlessly.
These changes are crucial because they directly enhance the student experience. Comfortable seating encourages longer reading sessions, fostering a deeper engagement with books. Meanwhile, the digital reading zone caters to the modern learning trends, making it easier for students to access information beyond the physical shelves. With these small yet impactful adjustments, our library will transform into an ideal learning hub that meets the needs of both traditional and digital learners.

【47题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了表达他对瑞典文学院成员和所有来宾的感谢,鲍勃·迪伦亲自撰写了一份宴会致辞。根据后文“his thanks to the members of Swedish Academy and all the guests present”可知,应是reflect意为“表达”符合语境,根据句意,此处表目的,应用不定式作目的状语,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填To reflect。

【50题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:一开始,我被机器狗所吸引,甚至把它称为“他”。分析句子结构可知,本句是that引导的结果状语从句,从句中缺少谓语,所以空处应填动词,根据后文“to him as a “he””可知,应是refer,构成固定搭配:refer to sb. as...意为“称某人为...”,根据前文的was可知,用一般过去时。故填referred。
【51题详解】

Section A 4%
Directions: Complete the following sentences in English according to the sentences given in Chinese.
52. Every great achievement starts with ______.
每个伟大的成就都始于尝试的决心。
【答案】determination to attempt
【解析】
【详解】考查名词和非谓语动词。表示“决心”应用determination,作宾语,表抽象概念,不可数;表示“尝试”应用attempt,修饰名词determination,需用动词不定式作后置定语。故填determination to attempt。
53. The best angle ______ is the try-angle.

【答案】to approach any problem
【解析】
【详解】考查动词、名词和非谓语动词。“处理”可用动词approach,宾语“任何问题”可用any problem;“处理任何问题的”作后置定语修饰名词angle,又因名词前有序数词、形容词最高级等修饰时,常用不定式作后置定语,名词angle前有最高级The best修饰,用不定式to approach any problem作后置定语。故填to approach any problem。
Section B 7%
Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.
54. 新扩建的广场是以前的四倍大。(broaden)(汉译英)
______________________________________________________
【答案】The newly broadened square is four times the size of the previous one.
【解析】
【详解】考查倍数表达、过去分词以及形容词。根据句意,该句讲述的为客观事实,所以此处使用一般现在时,表示“广场”应为the square作主语,位于句首,the的首字母需大写,表示“新扩建的”应为newly broadened为过去分词短语作定语修饰名词square,其中newly为副词修饰过去分词broadened;表示“是”应为is,作谓语;表示“以前的四倍大”应为倍数表达,其中比较的是尺寸大小,所以此处应使用“倍数+the size of…”结构,表示“以前的(那一个)”应为the previous one,为比较对象,其中one指代的为square,所以,表示“以前的四倍大”应译为four times the size of the previous one作表语。故翻译为The newly broadened square is four times the size of the previous one.
55. 如果全中国的学校教材每年被循环使用一年,节约的费用可以援建约4万所希望小学。(cost) (汉译英)
______________________________________________________
【答案】If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year, the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools.
【解析】
【详解】考查if的主从句时态以及被动语态。根据句意可知,前半句是if引导的条件句,时态是一般现在时;主语“教材”和谓语“循环使用”构成被动关系,因此用一般现在时态的被动语态am/is/are +done表示;表示“全中国的学校教材”短语为the school textbooks across China;表示“被循环使用一年”用被动语态are recycled for an additional year;时间状语“每年”翻译成every year,置于句尾;故从句翻译为If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year;if的主语时态应该是一般将来时,本句谓语为情态动词,故用can原形做谓语;表示“节约的费用”表示为the saving costs;表示“可以援建”翻译为can help build;表示“约4万所希望小学”翻译为about 40000 Hope Primary Schools;故主句部分翻译为the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools。故整句翻译为If the school textbooks across China are recycled for an additional year every year, the saving costs can help build about 40000 Hope Primary Schools。

【答案】Small Changes Make an Ideal School Library
As a student of Mingqi High School, I am excited about the upcoming renovation of our library during the summer vacation. Among the many potential improvements, I particularly envision two important changes. Firstly, I hope to see more comfortable seating arrangements, including sofas and beanbags, to create a cozy reading environment. Secondly, I propose introducing a digital reading zone with computers and tablets, enabling students to access e-books and online resources effortlessly.
These changes are crucial because they directly enhance the student experience. Comfortable seating encourages longer reading sessions, fostering a deeper engagement with books. Meanwhile, the digital reading zone caters to the modern learning trends, making it easier for students to access information beyond the physical shelves. With these small yet impactful adjustments, our library will transform into an ideal learning hub that meets the needs of both traditional and digital learners.
