The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship ancestors (祭拜祖先). However, here are some things you may not know about Clear and Bright. Spring Outings Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers come out, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to enjoy the beauty of nature. Flying Kites Flying kites is an activity loved by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be driven away by doing this. Cuju Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs in it. It is said that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival. Qingtuan In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake. In order to make the cakes, people mash (捣碎) barnyard grass (艾草) to squeeze juice from it and mix the flour and juice to a paste. Then they put fillings into the paste and steam them. Pretty and delicate, qingtuan tastes special. 26. What is special about flying kites during Clear and Bright? A. Flying kites to bring good luck. B. Cutting the kite string to let it fly freely. C. Flying kites with lanterns in the evening. D. Flying kites both in the daytime and at night. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Clear and Bright is an important period for farming. B. Kites are only flown during the daytime in the Qingming Festival. C. Cuju was invented by the Yellow Emperor to play in the Qingming Festival. D. Qingtuan is eaten during the period of Clear and Bright all over China. 28. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Flying kites in a special way. B. The history of the Qingming Festival. C. Ways to have fun during Clear and Bright. D. Some unknown customs about Clear and Bright. B A young boy is crying because his ear hurts. Then a man comes out of the forest. He carries some juice from a white fungus. Carefully, he drips the juice into the boy’s ear. In some rainforest villages of South America, that’s how earaches are cured (治愈)! Rainforest doctors, called shamans, use many kinds of plants as medicine. They make tea from one type of red vine (藤蔓). It cures stomachaches. Yellow flowers from another plant are used to treat snakebite. Local shamans have used the curing power of plants for thousands of years. _________ Today, scientists from all over the world want to learn what these shamans know about plant medicines. They are racing to find the secrets of the rainforest before the plants disappear for good. And the rainforests are disappearing fast. Every year, people cut down an area of rainforest as large as Florida. Sometimes they want to use the land for farms. Sometimes they cut down the trees and sell the wood. Now the scientists travel by boat air, and foot to tiny rainforest villages. Then they spend long hours making their way through the hot and humid jungle (丛林) with the local shamans. The shamans show the scientists which plants can be used as cures. Saving the Rainforest One U.S. company has already found an important new medicine. It comes from a plant found in the rainforests of Ecuador. This medicine may soon be used to cure lung infections in kids. Rainforest plants might cure many bad diseases, such as cancer and AIDS. So medicine companies are working to save the rainforests. When people buy medicines made from the rainforest plants, part of the money will go to help save the rainforests. If the rainforests survive, someday you may find cures in your home that were made from white fungus and red vines. 29. What does the underlined word “He” in Paragraph 1 most probably refer to? A. The boy’s father. B. The boy’s teacher. C. A rainforest scientist. D. A rainforest doctor. 30. What do the first two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. Many rainforest plants are used as medicines. B. The rainforests in the US are disappearing fast. C. Local shamans can cure different kinds of diseases. D. There’re many plants in the forest of South America. 31. Which of the following can be put in “________”? A. Losing the Rainforest B. Looking for the Medicines C. Learning from the Shamans D. Walking through the Rainforest 32. What is the best title for the passage? A. Rainforest Doctors B. Rainforest Medicines C. The Medicine Companies D. The Surviving Rainforest C ①700 years before the Wright brothers began experimenting with human flight, the Chinese had already got its secrets—with kites. ②Kites may have been invented in China as early as 500 B.C.E. While some kites were flown for fun, other kites provided key technologies for daily life. Chinese fishermen used kites to carry their lines far out to sea. Sailors used them to take a measurement of the wind. ③The Chinese craftsmen were very clever! They made their kites from bamboo and silk, and they came in all kinds of cool shapes, like 80-foot-long dragons. These kites showed off ancient China’s great technology. Their wings and tails could even move! As Chinese engineers experimented to make the kites fly even higher, they discovered the science of aerodynamics (空气动力学). They made the wings of their kites work like airfoils (机翼)—the same design used in modern planes. ④And the man-carriers were the most amazing Chinese kites. Ancient Chinese people may have made them a common sight by the 1200s. The kites were much larger than a small airplane. They were made from strong bamboo poles tied together and then covered with silk. During wars, Chinese scouts used man-carrying kites to fly high in the sky and spy on their enemies—similar to modern spy planes. ⑤In the late 1200s, the Italian businessman and explorer Marco Polo was amazed by what he saw in China, and he wrote a detailed description. When he returned to Italy, most people refused to believe him. They could not imagine that a person could fly. ⑥Centuries passed before Europeans learned the secrets—often by flying kites imported from China. In 1804, an English engineer, Sir George Cayley, built the first model airplanes. He used kites to make the wings. About 100 years later, American inventors, including the Wright brothers, also found ideas for their flight experiments by flying kites first. 33 What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. How people made kites. B. When kites were invented. C. What kites were used for. D. Where kites were invented. 34. Why are modern planes mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To describe the popularity of ancient Chinese kites. B. To get readers to learn about the history of Chinese kites. C. To show the excellent skills of kite making in ancient China. D. To tell the differences between modern planes and Chinese kites. 35. Which is the correct order of the following events? a. Sir George Cayley built the first model planes. b. Ancient Chinese made large man-carrying kites. c. Marco Polo told Italians about Chinese amazing kites. d. The Wright brothers did flight experiments by flying kites first. A. b-c-d-a B. b-c-a-d C. c-d-a-b D. c-b-a-d 36. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. D About 71 percent of the Earth’s surface is covered by water. Water in nature is saltwater and fresh water, but only three percent of that amount (数量) is freshwater. A lot of organizations are saying that people are running out of usable water, but few are taking this problem seriously. Why should they? They see water everywhere. The average American family uses more than 1,140 liters (升) of water at home per day. However, in developing countries, nearly 900 million people do not have safe drinking water. Water shortages are, in fact, a bigger problem today than ever before. The human population has continued to grow and with it, its need for water. Global warming is making this problem more serious. Unless we all take it seriously, we will end up having to live on a blue planet without a drop of usable water. From taking shorter showers to reusing water, there are many ways for you to save water. One more thing you can do is to reduce your use of “virtual water”. Perhaps you have never heard of the idea of “virtual water.” It means the water you use indirectly. We not just drink water and use it to clean all kinds of things; we also “use” it through the products we buy. To produce a piece of A4 paper, for example, we need about ten liters of water. The production of our food requires even more water. A cow needs to eat 1,300 kilograms of grain (谷物) for three years before it can produce 180 kilograms of beef. The grain requires water to grow, the cow needs to drink, and the farmer needs water to clean his farm. So behind each 230-gram steak dinner, there are nearly 3,600 liters of water! It will make a big difference if you remove some meat from your diet and eat more fruit and vegetables instead. You are also saving water when you are writing on both sides of paper instead of just one. The world is running out of usable water. Every drop of it is valuable. 37. How much does saltwater take up the total amount of water on the earth? A. 3%. B. 68%. C. 71%. D. 97%. 38. According to the passage, which of the following may cause the water shortages? ①The growing human population. ② The proper reprocess of water. ③ The great need for drinking water. ④ The increasing greenhouse effect. A. ①②④ B. ①③④ C. ①②③ D. ②③④ 39. Among the following examples, which one belongs to “virtual water”? A. Taking a shower. B. Washing some clothes. C. Making a cup of tea. D. Producing a kilo of mutton. 40. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this article? A. To improve the understanding of saving water. B. To discuss the challenge of living on another planet. C. To explain the reasons of protecting the environment. D. To show the possibility of turning saltwater into fresh water. E 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Today’s teens have grown up online. ____41____ They do homework online. And surely they get their news online. But because they are so comfortable with the Internet, they seldom question the news stories online. Now William Colglazier, a history teacher at a high school in America, is teaching his students how to think critically (批判性地) about online information and recognize a fake (假的) news story. His idea came from a study on people’s online reasoning (推理) at Stanford University. ____42____ Most middle school students in the study could not tell the difference between an advertisement and a news story, and high school and college students fully trusted the websites ending in “.org”. The good news is that, according to Colglazier, once teens realize they’ve been cheated, they have strong will to tell truth from lies. “____43____ and how to recognize when others use poor argumentation (论据),” he said. Some of the advice that Colglazier offers his students includes moving off the site to find more information about the site, the writer’s motivations (动机) and the organization behind the news story. ____44____ He hopes more kids would think critically when they read news online. “____45____” he said. “If people can’t tell real news from fake news, the results can be frightening.” A. The Internet is both beautiful and ugly. B. They make friends online. C. The study found that young people lack ability to tell truth from lies. D. The study found that young people lack ability to reason about the information on the Internet. E. The Internet is between beautiful and ugly, F. Colglazier shared some of his courses with other teens in Teen Vogue. G But they need some advice on how to find evidence (证据). 四、短文填空（10分） Many traditional woodcut prints (版画) are either black and white or simple in colour, but reduction woodcuts (绝版木刻) can show rich colours. The reduction woodcut uses one piece of wood to make a ____46____ (colour) artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers (层) in order on the same piece of wood. The reduction woodcuts became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in Pu’er, Yunnan, ____47____ 2009. Leng Guangmian, in his ____48____ (forty), is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started learning it in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut on the wood and then print, we never know ____49____ it will be like in the end.” Finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for ____50____ whole print and choose colours for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish. Leng hopes that both woodcutting skills and the life in Pu’er ____51____ (show) through his creative artwork. “For my works, there are two themes: Tea Horse Road (茶马古道), because Pu’er is one of the starting places of that road; and disappearing villages,” Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu’er need ____52____ (build) again. As a result, I want to make people remember their ____53____ (beautiful) before they are gone.” Leng Guangmian is now getting more people ____54____ (know) about the reduction woodcut. He trains farmers in Pu’er and brings the art into schools. To make students understand the art better and learn it more quickly, he even thought of a new idea of cardboard printing. “By using a smaller cardboard and making it _____55_____ (simple) with three to five colours, students can get the charm of the art,” Leng said. Nowadays, the popularity of Chinese traditional works of art is increasing. At an art museum in Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu Province, the woodcut prints are taking center stage for the first time. 五、选词填空（10分） 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其正确的形式填空（每个词或短语只能用一次） visit; return; in general; be a member of; do some shopping; easy; go boating; hear from; get ready for; give a helping hand 56.

Huang Quande looked like this when tourists took photos with him on the Lijiang River in Guilin, Guangxi. He became so famous online that many believed the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan renminbi banknote (纸币) was based on him. Sadly, Huang passed away at the age of 94 on Feb 18, 2023. Huang gave up fishing and became a photo model in 2008. He showed the true spirit of Lijiang River—being positive (积极的) and friendly. In his 90s, Huang could still move his boat with speed. The image of the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan banknote is not just about one man. Instead, it is a cultural symbol of Guilin landscape (风景), commented Guangming Daily. In fact, the different backsides of the fifth series of renminbi banknotes show the most iconic (标志性的) landscapes in China. Each of them carries its own cultural value. For example, on the back of the5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong. In ancient times, many emperors would go there and pray (祈祷) for the country. On the back of the 1-yuan banknote are the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon (三潭印月) in West Lake, Zhejiang. It is a great place for moon watchers during Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before. Following the banknotes from 1 yuan to 100, Pan Jinyu from Chongqing had a “banknote tour” when he was 21. “I want to finish a ceremonial (有仪式感的) journey and feel the beauty of our country,” Pan told Chongqing Economic Times. 66. When did Huang Quande become a photo model? _______________________________________________ 67. What does the image of the fisherman stand for, according to Guangming Daily? _______________________________________________ 68. On which banknote is the picture of Mount Tai in Shandong? _______________________________________________ 69. What do the pictures on the banknotes bring to these places? _______________________________________________ 70. What do you think of these renminbi pictures? _______________________________________________ 七、书面表达（25分） 71. 在生活的长河中，每个人都是一名独特的航行者，追寻着属于自己的梦想和荣光。在这段旅程中，我们经历了无数的挑战和困难，也收获了无数的欢笑和泪水。其中，总会有一件事情，让我们深感骄傲与自豪。校报英语编辑部正开展以“One Thing I’m Proud of”为题的征文活动。请你结合提示中的问题写一篇短文投稿。 1.

The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship ancestors (祭拜祖先). However, here are some things you may not know about Clear and Bright. Spring Outings Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers come out, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to enjoy the beauty of nature. Flying Kites Flying kites is an activity loved by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be driven away by doing this. Cuju Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs in it. It is said that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival. Qingtuan In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake. In order to make the cakes, people mash (捣碎) barnyard grass (艾草) to squeeze juice from it and mix the flour and juice to a paste. Then they put fillings into the paste and steam them. Pretty and delicate, qingtuan tastes special. 26. What is special about flying kites during Clear and Bright? A. Flying kites to bring good luck. B. Cutting the kite string to let it fly freely. C. Flying kites with lanterns in the evening. D. Flying kites both in the daytime and at night. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Clear and Bright is an important period for farming. B. Kites are only flown during the daytime in the Qingming Festival. C. Cuju was invented by the Yellow Emperor to play in the Qingming Festival. D. Qingtuan is eaten during the period of Clear and Bright all over China. 28. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Flying kites in a special way. B. The history of the Qingming Festival. C. Ways to have fun during Clear and Bright. D. Some unknown customs about Clear and Bright. 【答案】26. B 27. A 28. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了清明节的习俗，包括踏青、放风筝、蹴鞠运动、吃青团等活动。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely”可知，放风筝的特别之处在于：剪断风筝线，让它自由地飞翔。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring”可知，清明节期间，气温开始上升，降雨量增加，所以是种植农作物的重要时期。故选A。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“However, here are some things you may not know about Clear and Bright.”和全文内容可知，本文介绍了关于清明节的一些你不知道的习俗。故选D。 B A young boy is crying because his ear hurts. Then a man comes out of the forest. He carries some juice from a white fungus. Carefully, he drips the juice into the boy’s ear. In some rainforest villages of South America, that’s how earaches are cured (治愈)! Rainforest doctors, called shamans, use many kinds of plants as medicine. They make tea from one type of red vine (藤蔓). It cures stomachaches. Yellow flowers from another plant are used to treat snakebite. Local shamans have used the curing power of plants for thousands of years. _________ Today, scientists from all over the world want to learn what these shamans know about plant medicines. They are racing to find the secrets of the rainforest before the plants disappear for good. And the rainforests are disappearing fast. Every year, people cut down an area of rainforest as large as Florida. Sometimes they want to use the land for farms. Sometimes they cut down the trees and sell the wood. Now the scientists travel by boat, air, and foot to tiny rainforest villages. Then they spend long hours making their way through the hot and humid jungle (丛林) with the local shamans. The shamans show the scientists which plants can be used as cures. Saving the Rainforest One U.S. company has already found an important new medicine. It comes from a plant found in the rainforests of Ecuador. This medicine may soon be used to cure lung infections in kids. Rainforest plants might cure many bad diseases, such as cancer and AIDS. So medicine companies are working to save the rainforests. When people buy medicines made from the rainforest plants, part of the money will go to help save the rainforests. If the rainforests survive, someday you may find cures in your home that were made from white fungus and red vines. 29. What does the underlined word “He” in Paragraph 1 most probably refer to? A. The boy’s father. B. The boy’s teacher. C. A rainforest scientist. D. A rainforest doctor. 30. What do the first two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. Many rainforest plants are used as medicines. B. The rainforests in the US are disappearing fast. C. Local shamans can cure different kinds of diseases. D. There’re many plants in the forest of South America. 31. Which of the following can be put in “________”? A. Losing the Rainforest B. Looking for the Medicines C. Learning from the Shamans D. Walking through the Rainforest 32. What is the best title for the passage? A. Rainforest Doctors B. Rainforest Medicines C. The Medicine Companies D. The Surviving Rainforest 【答案】29. D 30. A 31. C 32. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了热带雨林医生，也被称为萨满，使用多种热带雨林中的植物作为药物治病。但是热带雨林正因为人类原因快速消失。医药公司正在努力拯救热带雨林。如果热带雨林幸存下来，有一天你可能会在家里找到用白色真菌和红色藤蔓制成的治疗药物。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“He carries some juice from a white fungus. Carefully, he drips the juice into the boy’s ear...Rainforest doctors, called shamans, use many kinds of plants as medicine”可知，他带着一种白色真菌的汁液。他小心翼翼地把果汁滴进男孩的耳朵里。故可推测出给这位小朋友治疗的应是一位热带雨林的医生。故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。通读第一、二段和“Rainforest doctors, called shamans, use many kinds of plants as medicine.

While some kites were flown for fun, other kites provided key technologies for daily life. Chinese fishermen used kites to carry their lines far out to sea. Sailors used them to take a measurement of the wind. ③The Chinese craftsmen were very clever! They made their kites from bamboo and silk, and they came in all kinds of cool shapes, like 80-foot-long dragons. These kites showed off ancient China’s great technology. Their wings and tails could even move! As Chinese engineers experimented to make the kites fly even higher, they discovered the science of aerodynamics (空气动力学). They made the wings of their kites work like airfoils (机翼)—the same design used in modern planes. ④And the man-carriers were the most amazing Chinese kites. Ancient Chinese people may have made them a common sight by the 1200s. The kites were much larger than a small airplane. They were made from strong bamboo poles tied together and then covered with silk. During wars, Chinese scouts used man-carrying kites to fly high in the sky and spy on their enemies—similar to modern spy planes. ⑤In the late 1200s, the Italian businessman and explorer Marco Polo was amazed by what he saw in China, and he wrote a detailed description. When he returned to Italy, most people refused to believe him. They could not imagine that a person could fly. ⑥Centuries passed before Europeans learned the secrets—often by flying kites imported from China. In 1804, an English engineer, Sir George Cayley, built the first model airplanes. He used kites to make the wings. About 100 years later, American inventors, including the Wright brothers, also found ideas for their flight experiments by flying kites first. 33. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. How people made kites. B. When kites were invented. C. What kites were used for. D. Where kites were invented. 34. Why are modern planes mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To describe the popularity of ancient Chinese kites. B. To get readers to learn about the history of Chinese kites. C. To show the excellent skills of kite making in ancient China. D To tell the differences between modern planes and Chinese kites. 35. Which is the correct order of the following events? a. Sir George Cayley built the first model planes. b. Ancient Chinese made large man-carrying kites. c. Marco Polo told Italians about Chinese amazing kites. d. The Wright brothers did flight experiments by flying kites first. A. b-c-d-a B. b-c-a-d C. c-d-a-b D. c-b-a-d 36. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】33. C 34. C 35. B 36. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了中国人在风筝制作和飞行方面的悠久历史和重要贡献，这些技术不仅用于娱乐和日常生活，还启发了后来的航空技术发展，对现代飞行器的设计产生了深远影响。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“were flown for fun”、“used kites to carry their lines far out to sea.”和“used them to take a measurement of the wind.”可知，为了好玩，把鱼线带到很远的海里以及测量风，都是风筝的作用，所以此段主要讲述风筝的用途。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“They made the wings of their kites work like airfoils (机翼)—the same design used in modern planes.”可知，他们把风筝的翅膀做成了像机翼一样的形状——与现代飞机的设计相同，也就是说古代做风筝的技术能匹敌现代飞机的设计，由此可知中国古代制作风筝的精湛技艺。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 1804, an English engineer, Sir George Cayley, built the first model airplanes...About 100 years later, American inventors, including the Wright brothers, also found ideas for their flight experiments by flying kites first.”可知，a“乔治·凯利爵士制造了第一批模型飞机”发生在d“莱特兄弟首先用风筝做了飞行实验”之前，排除选项A和C；根据第四和第五段可知，先是古人制造了大型的载人风筝，马可·波罗在看到这种风筝，返回意大利后再告诉意大利人这种风筝，b发生在c之前。故选B。 【36题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，①段引出主题——风筝，②③④段介绍了风筝在古代中国的起源和发展，⑤⑥段讲述风筝到外国的传播以及影响。故选D。 D About 71 percent of the Earth’s surface is covered by water. Water in nature is saltwater and fresh water, but only three percent of that amount (数量) is freshwater. A lot of organizations are saying that people are running out of usable water, but few are taking this problem seriously. Why should they? They see water everywhere. The average American family uses more than 1,140 liters (升) of water at home per day. However, in developing countries, nearly 900 million people do not have safe drinking water. Water shortages are, in fact, a bigger problem today than ever before. The human population has continued to grow and with it, its need for water. Global warming is making this problem more serious. Unless we all take it seriously, we will end up having to live on a blue planet without a drop of usable water. From taking shorter showers to reusing water, there are many ways for you to save water. One more thing you can do is to reduce your use of “virtual water”. Perhaps you have never heard of the idea of “virtual water.” It means the water you use indirectly. We not just drink water and use it to clean all kinds of things; we also “use” it through the products we buy. To produce a piece of A4 paper, for example, we need about ten liters of water. The production of our food requires even more water. A cow needs to eat 1,300 kilograms of grain (谷物) for three years before it can produce 180 kilograms of beef. The grain requires water to grow, the cow needs to drink, and the farmer needs water to clean his farm. So behind each 230-gram steak dinner, there are nearly 3,600 liters of water! It will make a big difference if you remove some meat from your diet and eat more fruit and vegetables instead. You are also saving water when you are writing on both sides of paper instead of just one. The world is running out of usable water. Every drop of it is valuable. 37. How much does saltwater take up the total amount of water on the earth? A. 3%. B. 68%. C. 71%. D. 97%. 38. According to the passage, which of the following may cause the water shortages? ①The growing human population. ② The proper reprocess of water. ③ The great need for drinking water. ④ The increasing greenhouse effect. A. ①②④ B. ①③④ C. ①②③ D. ②③④ 39. Among the following examples, which one belongs to “virtual water”? A. Taking a shower. B. Washing some clothes. C. Making a cup of tea. D. Producing a kilo of mutton. 40. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this article? A. To improve the understanding of saving water. B. To discuss the challenge of living on another planet. C. To explain the reasons of protecting the environment. D. To show the possibility of turning saltwater into fresh water. 【答案】37. D 38. B 39. D 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要指出了重视水资源短缺问题的重要性，并且提供了节约水资源的方法。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Water in nature is saltwater and fresh water, but only three percent of that amount (数量) is freshwater”可知，自然界的水分为咸水和淡水，但其中只有3%是淡水，故可推测出，有97%都是咸水。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The average American family uses more than 1,140 liters (升) of water at home per day. However, in developing countries, nearly 900 million people do not have safe drinking water...The human population has continued to grow and with it, its need for water. Global warming is making this problem more serious”可知，人口持续增长，对水的需求也随之增加。全球变暖使这个问题更加严重。故选B。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Perhaps you have never heard of the idea of ‘virtual water.’ It means the water you use indirectly. We not just drink water and use it to clean all kinds of things; we also ‘use’ it through the products we buy”可知，也许你从未听说过“虚拟水”这个概念。它指的是你间接使用的水。我们不只是喝水，用它来清洗各种各样的东西；我们也通过我们购买的产品“使用”它。故可推测出，选项D“生产一公斤羊肉”属于“虚拟水”。故选D。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要指出了重视水资源短缺问题的重要性，并且提供了节约水资源的方法。故作者写这篇文章是为了提高大家的节约用水意识。故选A。 E 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Today’s teens have grown up online. ____41____ They do homework online. And surely they get their news online. But because they are so comfortable with the Internet, they seldom question the news stories online. Now William Colglazier, a history teacher at a high school in America, is teaching his students how to think critically (批判性地) about online information and recognize a fake (假的) news story. His idea came from a study on people’s online reasoning (推理) at Stanford University. ____42____ Most middle school students in the study could not tell the difference between an advertisement and a news story, and high school and college students fully trusted the websites ending in “.org”. The good news is that, according to Colglazier, once teens realize they’ve been cheated, they have strong will to tell truth from lies. “____43____ and how to recognize when others use poor argumentation (论据),” he said. Some of the advice that Colglazier offers his students includes moving off the site to find more information about the site, the writer’s motivations (动机) and the organization behind the news story. ____44____ He hopes more kids would think critically when they read news online. “____45____” he said. “If people can’t tell real news from fake news, the results can be frightening.” A. The Internet is both beautiful and ugly. B. They make friends online. C. The study found that young people lack ability to tell truth from lies. D. The study found that young people lack ability to reason about the information on the Internet. E. The Internet is between beautiful and ugly, F. Colglazier shared some of his courses with other teens in Teen Vogue. G. But they need some advice on how to find evidence (证据). 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. G 44. F 45.

The reduction woodcut uses one piece of wood to make a ____46____ (colour) artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers (层) in order on the same piece of wood. The reduction woodcuts became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in Pu’er, Yunnan, ____47____ 2009. Leng Guangmian, in his ____48____ (forty), is a reduction woodcut artist. Leng started learning it in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure. “Every time we cut on the wood and then print, we never know ____49____ it will be like in the end.” Finishing such work is not easy. He said that before cutting, he needs to plan for ____50____ whole print and choose colours for different layers. A big print usually takes months to finish. Leng hopes that both woodcutting skills and the life in Pu’er ____51____ (show) through his creative artwork. “For my works, there are two themes: Tea Horse Road (茶马古道), because Pu’er is one of the starting places of that road; and disappearing villages,” Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu’er need ____52____ (build) again. As a result, I want to make people remember their ____53____ (beautiful) before they are gone.” Leng Guangmian is now getting more people ____54____ (know) about the reduction woodcut. He trains farmers in Pu’er and brings the art into schools. To make students understand the art better and learn it more quickly, he even thought of a new idea of cardboard printing. “By using a smaller cardboard and making it _____55_____ (simple) with three to five colours, students can get the charm of the art,” Leng said. Nowadays, the popularity of Chinese traditional works of art is increasing.

Huang Quande looked like this when tourists took photos with him on the Lijiang River in Guilin, Guangxi. He became so famous online that many believed the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan renminbi banknote (纸币) was based on him. Sadly, Huang passed away at the age of 94 on Feb 18, 2023. Huang gave up fishing and became a photo model in 2008. He showed the true spirit of Lijiang River—being positive (积极的) and friendly. In his 90s, Huang could still move his boat with speed. The image of the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan banknote is not just about one man. Instead, it is a cultural symbol of Guilin landscape (风景), commented Guangming Daily. In fact, the different backsides of the fifth series of renminbi banknotes show the most iconic (标志性的) landscapes in China. Each of them carries its own cultural value. For example, on the back of the5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong. In ancient times, many emperors would go there and pray (祈祷) for the country. On the back of the 1-yuan banknote are the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon (三潭印月) in West Lake, Zhejiang. It is a great place for moon watchers during Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before. Following the banknotes from 1 yuan to 100, Pan Jinyu from Chongqing had a “banknote tour” when he was 21. “I want to finish a ceremonial (有仪式感的) journey and feel the beauty of our country,” Pan told Chongqing Economic Times. 66.

Special./Meaningful./Beautiful./Interesting./Important./A way to show Chinese culture./They’re carriers of Chinese culture./They carry Chinese culture. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了20元纸币背面的人物黄全德以及人民币背面的不同图案及其文化价值。 【66题详解】 根据“Huang gave up fishing and became a photo model in 2008”可知他在2008年成为一名摄影模特。故填In 2008. 【67题详解】 根据“Instead, it is a cultural symbol of Guilin landscape”可知它是桂林风景的文化象征。故填A cultural symbol of Guilin landscape. 【68题详解】 根据“ on the back of the5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong”可知5元纸币的背面是山东的泰山。故填(On) The 5-yuan banknote. 【69题详解】 根据“Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before”可知因为有了人民币图片，这些地方比以前吸引了更多的游客。故填More tourists (than before)./More popularity among tourists. 【70题详解】 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为Special./Meaningful./Beautiful./Interesting./Important./A way to show Chinese culture./They’re carriers of Chinese culture./They carry Chinese culture. 七、书面表达（25分） 71. 在生活的长河中，每个人都是一名独特的航行者，追寻着属于自己的梦想和荣光。在这段旅程中，我们经历了无数的挑战和困难，也收获了无数的欢笑和泪水。其中，总会有一件事情，让我们深感骄傲与自豪。校报英语编辑部正开展以“One Thing I’m Proud of”为题的征文活动。请你结合提示中的问题写一篇短文投稿。 1.

It was on a fine autumn afternoon when I was still a teenager. I noticed an old grandma sitting silently under a tall tree in front of her house, looking rather sad and lonely. I went to have a chat with her. After our short conversation, I got to know that all the old women’s sons and daughters were far away from her, making their lives in big cities and she felt lonely. I felt sympathetic for her, and I realized that there were actually many old people like her in the village. So a good idea occurred to me suddenly. I gathered my friends, and organized them to visit these old people one by one. We sang songs, danced and told jokes to them, which made them happy. Caring for those around us and passing our happiness to others are what we have learnt that day. I made it, and I feel really proud of myself that I gave comfort to those who needed most. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态“一般过去时”； ③提示：根据所给提示完成写作，注意标点符号及大小写等问题，不要犯语法错误。注意上下文之间的逻辑关系，语意连贯。 [写作步骤] 第一步，介绍自己引以为傲的事情； 第二步，介绍事情发生的时间以及自己做了什么； 第三步，介绍自己以此为傲的原因。 [亮点词汇] ①notice注意 ②get to know了解 ③sympathetic同情的 ④occur to被想起 ⑤feel proud of感到自豪 [高分句型] We sang songs, danced and told jokes to them, which made them happy.(which引导非限制性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
