She is also known as “Frog Princess”. Gu’s father is American and her mother is from Beijing. On September 3, 2003, Gu was born in San Francisco, the US.

When she was 3 years old, she started to learn about skiing and fell in love with it. And in 2011, she started to learn freestyle skiing.

Gu is a clever student with great grades. She made full use of her free time to finish all her subjects in senior high school. She did more things in 12 hours than most people can do in 16 or 18 hours in a day. The hard work finally paid off (回报). In December, 2020, with good grades, she studied at Stanford University in the US.

On the Internet some suitcases prepared by parents have moved lots of people. Parents’ love is about fearing that you might always get hungry in another city. Parents’ worries are about not being able to put everything in your suitcase. The suitcases are a symbol of parents’ silent love and encouragement—they can’t help their children with the increasing competitions and pressure from the outside world, and they can only watch their children go through ups and downs in life. However, the deepest love and encouragement have always been there. ▲ , but no matter (无论) where you are, the family is your strongest support to face the windy and rainy days. 28.

But after about half an hour, the “city” was gone. You might think that some unknown forces were in control of it. But it’s believed that the “city on the lake” was actually a mirage (海市蜃楼). A mirage is a trick that light and air play with our vision (视觉). a Normally, light travels in a straight line, but it can bend (弯曲) and change direction depending on what it passes through. This bending is called “refraction (折射)”. b If different layers of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them. This can create a false image of a nearby object. c The layer of air near the lake is thinner than the higher layers, as the lake absorbs (吸收) most of the heat. The buildings in the mirage were actually on a nearby mountain. But their image showed up above the lake after light refracted in different layers of air. Mirages happen not only over large bodies of water, but also anywhere where the ground can absorb a lot of heat. d They are often seen on hot roads and in deserts. The next time you think you see a pool of water on the road on a hot summer day, you will know it’s just a mirage—an image of the sky caused by bending light. 32. The normal track (路径) of light is ________. A. B. C. D. 33. The sentence “Take the city on the lake as an example.” can be best put in ________. A. a B. b C. c D. d 34.

Unknown forces cause a mirage to happen. B. Mirages only happen over large bodies of water. C. The layers of air near the lake are as thin as the higher ones. D. Layers of air at different temperatures make light bend differently. 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了海市蜃楼的现象，包括其形成原因和发生地点。海市蜃楼是由于光线在不同温度的空气层中折射而产生的虚假图像，常见于水面、炎热的道路和沙漠等地。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Normally, light travels in a straight line”可知，通常情况下，光是直线传播的。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Take the city on the lake as an example.”可知，连接的句子应该是与湖水有关，c后的句子“The layer of air near the lake is thinner than the higher layers, as the lake absorbs (吸收) most of the heat.”与湖面相关。故选C。 【34题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“If different layers of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them. This can create a false image of a nearby object.”可知，如果不同的空气层处于不同的温度，光线穿过它们时会以不同的角度弯曲。这可能会产生附近物体的虚假图像，即不真实的图像。划线词的意思是“不真实的”。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“If different layers of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them.”可知，如果不同的空气层处于不同的温度，光在穿过它们时会以不同的角度弯曲。即不同温度下的空气层会使光线产生不同的弯曲。故选D。 (E) ①“Helicopter parents” are those parents who pay too much attention to their children. They are always making a big effort to provide children with every chance to succeed, from baby steps at age 1, homework at age 8 and work at age 25 to family problems at age 30, 40 or even older. ② Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons. Worries about children’s future success can push parents to take more control of their children’s life. Adults who felt unloved as children may want to give as much love as they can to their own children. And when parents see others doing so, they will also follow. ③ Although it develops with the idea of doing good things, the result isn’t always satisfying. Mary is taken to five after-school classes each week, but she doesn’t do well in any of them. “I feel like I am just checking off things on the checklist (清单), ” she says. ④ Worse still, overparenting can do the exact opposite. A child raised in this way may feel helpless once he has to do things on his own. “ ▲ ,” an expert said. “And if parents don’t let their children experience failure (失败) themselves, the children won’t get them.” ⑤ Since helicopter parenting does such great harm (危害), does it mean parents should just back off and let it go? Of course not. “The point is to prepare the kid for the road but not the road for the kid,” another expert said. “Give them the morals (品行), give them the right start and develop their good habits, but you have to let them live their own lives.” 36. What can we learn from the passage? A. Helicopter parenting does great harm to children. B. Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children. C. Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems. D. Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life without any happiness. 37. Which of the following can be put in the ________? A. Don’t be a helicopter parent B. It’s a parent’s job to encourage the children C. Making decisions, solving problems and taking risks are key life skills D. Parents try their best to make sure their children never meet with failure 38. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5? A. Rome wasn’t built in a day. B. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. 39. Which best shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. D 39. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了直升机父母、直升机式育儿发展的原因、结果，以及对于父母养育孩子的建议。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Since helicopter parenting does such great harm (危害), does it mean parents should just back off and let it go?”可知，直升机式育儿对孩子的伤害很大。故选A。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据“A child raised in this way may feel helpless once he has to do things on his own.”可知，以这种方式长大的孩子一旦要自己做事情时，可能会感到无助，因此父母不能过度干预孩子的生活，应让孩子学会一些必备的技能，为以后的独立生活作准备。选项C“做决定、解决问题和冒险是关键的生活技能”符合语境。故选C。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“The point is to prepare the kid for the road but not the road for the kid”可知，关键是让孩子为道路做好准备，而不是为孩子准备道路；选项D“授人以渔，授人以渔。”与之对应。故选D。 【39题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段介绍了什么样的父母是“直升机父母”；第二段分析了出现直升机式育儿的原因；第三、四段介绍了直升机式育儿的结果；第五段是关于父母养育孩子的一些建议。A选项符合本文的结构。故选A。 V.补全对话， 从下面选择合适的句子补全对话。其中有两项多余。 A: You look unhappy. ____40____ B: I really feel stressed.

Jim thought it was unfair, so he asked his boss why he didn’t show thanks to the hard-working people like him in the company. The boss knew that Jim worked hard, and in order to show the difference between Jim and Stew, he said, “Go and find anyone selling apples in the market (市场).” When Jim returned, the boss asked, “How much per kilogram?” So Jim went back to the market and then returned to say the price—$12 per kg. Then the boss asked Stew the same thing. Stew went to the market, and when he returned, he said, “At the moment there is one person selling apples, $12 per kg, $100 for 10 kg. Now he has 340 apples in stock (有存货). On the table there are 48 apples, and each of them weighs about 0.2 kg. Apples were bought from the south two days ago, so they are fresh.” Hearing this, Jim realized the difference between him and Stew. He knew that he could learn a lot from his friend.

(B) Do you know Gu Ailing, a sports player? She is also known as “Frog Princess”. Gu’s father is American and her mother is from Beijing. On September 3, 2003, Gu was born in San Francisco, the US. Though Gu grew up in America, she often calls herself “Chinese Girl” and in 2019, she became a Chinese. China’s culture (文化), its beautiful cities, and delicious food make her love this wonderful country a lot. Gu’s mother was a ski trainer (滑雪教练). Because of her mother, Gu liked skiing very much. When she was 3 years old, she started to learn about skiing and fell in love with it. And in 2011, she started to learn freestyle skiing. By 15, she had won many gold medals (金牌) in all kinds of games. In 2021, Gu became the first free skier to win two gold medals at the FIS Freeski World Championships (锦标赛). As time went by, her wish for competing (竞赛) for China grew stronger. Then in 2019, her dream came true. At the 2022 Winter Olympics, she won two gold medals. Gu is a clever student with great grades. She made full use of her free time to finish all her subjects in senior high school. She did more things in 12 hours than most people can do in 16 or 18 hours in a day. The hard work finally paid off (回报). In December, 2020, with good grades, she studied at Stanford University in the US. For Gu, skiing is not about winning, but about doing “impossible things” through thousands of hours of hard work. 24. Which is the right event order about Gu Ailing? ① She got into Stanford University. ② She began to learn freestyle skiing. ③She became a Chinese in 2019. ④She competed for China at the 2022 Winter Olympics. ⑤She won two gold medals at the FIS Freeski World Championships.

Becoming the youngest sports player. 26. What’s the main reason (主要原因) for Gu Ailing’s success (成功)? A. Her free time. B. Her family’s help. C. Her good luck. D. Her hard work. 27. What’s the best title for the passage? A. The Fantastic Winter Olympics B. Gu Ailing and Her Family Life C. Gu Ailing—a Rising (升起) Sports Star D. Gu Ailing’s School Life (C) When I was young Nostalgia (乡愁) was a tiny, tiny stamp Me on this side Mother on the other side I’ve never felt homesick (思乡的) because I’ve never left my hometown, but I know that lots of people have to leave theirs to work or study, carrying large suitcases with them. On the Internet some suitcases prepared by parents have moved lots of people. Parents’ love is about fearing that you might always get hungry in another city. Parents’ worries are about not being able to put everything in your suitcase. The suitcases are a symbol of parents’ silent love and encouragement—they can’t help their children with the increasing competitions and pressure from the outside world, and they can only watch their children go through ups and downs in life. However, the deepest love and encouragement have always been there. ▲ , but no matter (无论) where you are, the family is your strongest support to face the windy and rainy days. 28. What does the underlined word “suitcases” mean in Chinese? A. 礼物 B. 套装 C. 行李箱 D. 储物柜 29. What is the symbol of the suitcases? A. Fears and worries. B. Competitions and pressure. C. Hometowns and workplace. D. Love and encouragement. 30. Which of the following can be put in the ________? A. Love is always around us B. Hometown may be far away C. It’s impossible to carry the suitcases D. Nostalgia is a great poem 31. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Nostalgia and Love in Suitcases B. Photos of Suitcases C. Ups and Downs with Suitcases D. Suitcases Are Hometowns (D) A giant “ancient city” appeared on the surface (表面) of a lake. But after about half an hour, the “city” was gone. You might think that some unknown forces were in control of it. But it’s believed that the “city on the lake” was actually a mirage (海市蜃楼). A mirage is a trick that light and air play with our vision (视觉). a Normally, light travels in a straight line, but it can bend (弯曲) and change direction depending on what it passes through. This bending is called “refraction (折射)”. b If different layers of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them. This can create a false image of a nearby object. c The layer of air near the lake is thinner than the higher layers, as the lake absorbs (吸收) most of the heat. The buildings in the mirage were actually on a nearby mountain. But their image showed up above the lake after light refracted in different layers of air. Mirages happen not only over large bodies of water but also anywhere where the ground can absorb a lot of heat. d They are often seen on hot roads and in deserts. The next time you think you see a pool of water on the road on a hot summer day, you will know it’s just a mirage—an image of the sky caused by bending light. 32. The normal track (路径) of light is ________. A. B. C. D. 33. The sentence “Take the city on the lake as an example.” can be best put in ________. A. a B. b C. c D. d 34. What does the underlined word “false” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A. 雄伟的 B. 不真实的 C. 完整的 D. 人工的 35. Which of the following statements about the mirage is TRUE? A. Unknown forces cause a mirage to happen. B. Mirages only happen over large bodies of water. C. The layers of air near the lake are as thin as the higher ones. D. Layers of air at different temperatures make light bend differently. (E) ①“Helicopter parents” are those parents who pay too much attention to their children. They are always making a big effort to provide children with every chance to succeed, from baby steps at age 1, homework at age 8 and work at age 25 to family problems at age 30, 40 or even older. ② Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons. Worries about children’s future success can push parents to take more control of their children’s life. Adults who felt unloved as children may want to give as much love as they can to their own children. And when parents see others doing so, they will also follow. ③ Although it develops with the idea of doing good things, the result isn’t always satisfying. Mary is taken to five after-school classes each week, but she doesn’t do well in any of them. “I feel like I am just checking off things on the checklist (清单), ” she says. ④ Worse still, overparenting can do the exact opposite. A child raised in this way may feel helpless once he has to do things on his own. “ ▲ ,” an expert said. “And if parents don’t let their children experience failure (失败) themselves, the children won’t get them.” ⑤ Since helicopter parenting does such great harm (危害), does it mean parents should just back off and let it go? Of course not. “The point is to prepare the kid for the road but not the road for the kid,” another expert said. “Give them the morals (品行), give them the right start and develop their good habits, but you have to let them live their own lives.” 36. What can we learn from the passage? A. Helicopter parenting does great harm to children. B. Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children. C Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems. D. Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life without any happiness. 37. Which of the following can be put in the ________? A. Don’t be a helicopter parent B. It’s a parent’s job to encourage the children C. Making decisions, solving problems and taking risks are key life skills D. Parents try their best to make sure their children never meet with failure 38. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5? A. Rome wasn’t built in a day. B. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. 39. Which best shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. V.补全对话， 从下面选择合适的句子补全对话。其中有两项多余。 A: You look unhappy. ____40____ B: I really feel stressed. My parents always want me to get the first prize in our class. I am under great pressure.

Ⅵ. 任务型阅读 Two friends, Jim and Stew, joined a big sales company (公司) together. Both of them worked really hard. Three years passed and the company’s director promoted (提拔) Stew to sales executive (主管). Jim did not get any promotion. Jim thought it was unfair, so he asked his boss why he didn’t show thanks to the hard-working people like him in the company. The boss knew that Jim worked hard, and in order to show the difference between Jim and Stew, he said, “Go and find anyone selling apples in the market (市场).” When Jim returned, the boss asked, “How much per kilogram?” So Jim went back to the market and then returned to say the price—$12 per kg. Then the boss asked Stew the same thing. Stew went to the market, and when he returned, he said, “At the moment there is one person selling apples, $12 per kg, $100 for 10 kg. Now he has 340 apples in stock (有存货). On the table there are 48 apples, and each of them weighs about 0.2 kg. Apples were bought from the south two days ago, so they are fresh.” Hearing this, Jim realized the difference between him and Stew. He knew that he could learn a lot from his friend. Successful people are better at thinking than common people. They think and see the future, while common people only see the tomorrow. From then on, Jim ___________________________________. 45.
