He has been learning traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) since 2016. Now he is studying for his master’s degree at Henan University of Chinese Medicine. As he thought some diseases can’t be treated thoroughly with Western medicine, he decided to research into TCM. Hans came to Central China’s Henan Province in 2015, where a rich TCM culture can be enjoyed because Henan Province is the hometown of Zhang Zhongjing, the medical master of ancient China. After one year of learning the Chinese language, he started to learn Chinese medicine. Hans thought TCM is one of the best-preserved aspects of Chinese culture. He hopes to solve problems and understand Chinese culture deeply by learning TCM. Without a language barrier, Hans read some of the ancient Chinese medical classics, such as Huangdi Neijing and Yi Jing. He believes different aspects of traditional Chinese culture interact with each other. Studying TCM also changed Hans’ mind and lifestyle. He used to be addicted to electronic devices and stay up late every night, trapped in this fast-paced but unhealthy daily routine. But now, according to the Yin-Yang theory in TCM, he lives a balanced and peaceful life, practicing good habits such as drinking tea and meditating, as well as reading ancient books. Hans also uses what he has learned to help his family. Previously, acupuncture tools and Chinese medicine were necessities when he went back to his home in Germany. With acupuncture and Chinese-style massages, various physical disorders of his family have been well-treated. Now, he always provides his family members with some advice about staying fit after he checks their skin or tongues online. Over time, his family gradually began to understand his passion for TCM. He plans to run a traditional Chinese clinic in China or Germany after graduation, which could serve as a bridge between the two countries and publicize TCM and its culture. 24. What attracted Hans to Henan Province to study TCM? A. Its rich TCM culture. B. Its unique language. C. Its beautiful scenery. D. Its famous university. 25. What makes it possible for Hans to read ancient Chinese medical classics? A. His family’s support. B. His financial situation. C. His language learning. D. His previous experience. 26. How has studying TCM affected Hans? A. He has made a big fortune. B. He has known many medical experts. C. He has set up a clinic in Germany. D. He has developed a healthy lifestyle. 27. Which of the following best describes Hans? A. Ambitious. B. Brave. C. Humorous. D. Good-mannered. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了95后德国青年Hans学习中医文化的事情。介绍了他如何学习中医以及中医对他的影响。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Hans came to Central China’s Henan Province in 2015, where a rich TCM culture can be enjoyed because Henan Province is the hometown of Zhang Zhongjing, the medical master of ancient China.(汉斯于2015年来到中国中部的河南省，在那里可以欣赏到丰富的中医文化，因为河南省是中国古代医学大师张仲景的家乡)”可知，河南丰富的中医文化吸引Hans来到河南学习中医。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Without a language barrier, Hans read some of the ancient Chinese medical classics, such as Huangdi Neijing and Yi Jing.(没有语言障碍，Hans阅读了一些中国古代医学经典，如《黄帝内经》和《易经》)”可知，语言学习使Hans能够阅读中国古代医学经典。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Studying TCM also changed Hans’ mind and lifestyle. He used to be addicted to electronic devices and stay up late every night, trapped in this fast-paced but unhealthy daily routine. But now, according to the Yin-Yang theory in TCM, he lives a balanced and peaceful life, practicing good habits such as drinking tea and meditating, as well as reading ancient books.(学习中医也改变了Hans的思想和生活方式。他曾经沉迷于电子设备，每天都熬夜，被困在这种快节奏但不健康的日常生活中。但现在，根据中医的阴阳学说，他过着平衡和平的生活，养成了饮茶、冥想以及阅读古籍等好习惯)”可知，学习中医对Hans的影响是让他养成了健康的生活方式。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He plans to run a traditional Chinese clinic in China or Germany after graduation, which could serve as a bridge between the two countries and publicize TCM and its culture.(他计划毕业后在中国或德国经营一家中医诊所，作为两国之间的桥梁，宣传中医及其文化)”可推知，Hans很有抱负。故选A。 C The tea that has delighted and fascinated the world for thousands of years has finally received top-level global recognition as a shared cultural treasure of mankind. China’s traditional tea-making was added on Tuesday to the intangible cultural heritage list of UNESCO. The traditional tea processing techniques and associated social practices in China consist of knowledge, skills and practices concerning the management of tea plantations, picking of tea leaves, manual(手工的)processing, drinking and sharing of tea. Since ancient times, Chinese people have been planting, picking, making and drinking tea. Tea producers have developed six categories of tea: green, yellow, dark, white, oolong and black teas. Together with reprocessed teas, such as flower-scented teas, there are over 2, 000 tea products in China. Tea-related customs are not only found across the country, but also influence the rest of the world through the ancient Silk Road and trade routes. Tea is ubiquitous in Chinese people’s daily life, as steeped(浸泡)or boiled tea is served in families, workplaces, tea houses, restaurants and temples, etc. It is also an important part of socialization and ceremonies such as weddings and sacrifices. The practice of greeting guests and building relationships within families and among neighbors through tea- related activities is common to multiple ethnic groups, providing a sense of shared identity and continuity for the communities. In China, 44 registered national-level intangible cultural heritage entries are related to tea. There are over 40 vocational colleges and 80 universities that have set up majors in tea science or tea culture, resulting in over 3,000 graduates specializing in tea production and art every year, according to the ministry. China now has 43 items on the intangible cultural heritage list, continuing to be the most enlisted country in the world. 28. What can be learnt from the passage? A. Chinese producers developed 44 categories of tea. B. Tea is quite popular with people all over the country. C. More than 2,000 tea products could be found in China. D. There’ re about 300 graduates specializing in tea production every year. 29. What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” probably mean? A. rare B. common C. temporary D. available 30. How does the author emphasize the promotion of tea culture in Paragraph 4? A. By listing figures. B. By making definitions. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 31. In which kind of book may this text appear? A A textbook. B. A travel journal. C. A story book. D. A cultural magazine. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。中国传统文化——茶道被列入联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录，文章介绍了中国茶叶产品种类和传统加工工艺及相关茶文化等。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Together with reprocessed teas, such as flower-scented teas, there are over 2, 000 tea products in China.(再加上花茶等再加工茶叶，中国有2000多种茶叶产品)”可知，在中国可以找到2000多种茶叶产品。故选C。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“as steeped(浸泡)or boiled tea is served in families, workplaces, tea houses, restaurants and temples, etc. It is also an important part of socialization and ceremonies such as weddings and sacrifices.(泡茶或煮茶在家庭、工作场所、茶馆、餐馆和寺庙等场所都有供应。它也是社交和婚礼、祭祀等仪式的重要组成部分)”可推知，茶在中国人每日生活中是常见的，划线词与common意思相近。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In China, 44 registered national-level intangible cultural heritage entries are related to tea. There are over 40 vocational colleges and 80 universities that have set up majors in tea science or tea culture, resulting in over 3,000 graduates specializing in tea production and art every year, according to the ministry.(在中国，有44个国家级非物质文化遗产项目与茶有关。据该部称，有40多所职业院校和80多所大学开设了茶学或茶文化专业，每年有3000多名专业从事茶叶生产和艺术的毕业生)”可知，本段通过列数字来强调茶文化的推广。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The tea that has delighted and fascinated the world for thousands of years has finally received top-level global recognition as a shared cultural treasure of mankind. China’s traditional tea-making was added on Tuesday to the intangible cultural heritage list of UNESCO.(几千年来一直令世界欣喜和着迷的茶终于作为人类共同的文化瑰宝获得了全球顶级的认可。周二，中国传统的茶道被列入联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录)”及全文内容可知，本文介绍了中国传统文化——茶道被列入联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录，同时介绍了中国茶叶产品种类和传统加工工艺及相关茶文化等，因此，本文可能出自一本文化杂志。故选D。 D I’m a layperson with a love of science who occasionally reads science magazines. My approach was from an author’s angle, spending months on research before writing a single word for Pig Heart Boy. So where did I get the idea? Whenever I attend a school event, that question is asked. The answer is simple. Back in the mid 1990s, I read a newspaper article written by a doctor who guessed that we would eventually have to turn to xenotransplantation (异种器官移植) as a possible solution to the lack of human organ donors. It left my mind filled with questions. What are the consequences? Do we really have the right to treat animals as me re organ sources for humans? So I headed to my nearest bookshop and bought all the books I could on heart transplants in particular. I’ve found questions are one of the best places to start from when writing a novel. In my story Cameron, who needs a heart transplant, knows he is unlikely to see his next birthday unless he receives one, but he is a long way down the waiting list. When a genetically modified (GM) pig’s heart is offered by a pioneering doctor, Cameron decides to go for it —and his new heart completely changes his life in unexpected ways. Now some people think that the subject matter is not suitable for children, criticizing the cruel and inhuman ways of xenotransplantation. I completely disagree. As a children’s author, it never ceases to amaze me how some adults underestimate what subject matter will interest and stimulate children. I wanted to write a story that provided no right or wrong answers, a story that would allow the reader to walk in Cameron’s shoes for a while and think about what decisions they would make and how they would react if they too were faced with his situation. Fictional stories that explore new ideas when it comes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects also have a part to play in enriching our children’s reading and learning. Various studies have shown that reading fiction enhances our children’s ability to grasp new concepts. Pig Heart Boy was my attempt to incorporate science possible into a believable, thought-provoking (令人深思的) story. 32. Where did the author get inspiration from to write Pig Heart Boy? A. A school event. B. A news item. C. Science magazines. D. Books on heart transplants. 33. What might be a major concern of those who disagree with Pig Heart Boy? A. Animal rights. B. GM technology. C. Organ transplant risks. D. Organ shortage crisis. 34. What are the last two paragraphs of the text mainly about? A. Ways of tapping children ‘s intelligence. B. Potential application of fictional stories. C. Supporting evidence for justifying the book. D. Influence of fictional stories on STEM subjects. 35. What is Pig Heart Boy? A. An author profile. B. A science fiction novel. C. A guidebook to xenotransplantation. D. An essay on writing children’s literature. 【答案】32 B 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者从异种器官移植报道中获得灵感创作小说《Pig Heart Boy》的故事。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Back in the mid 1990s, I read a newspaper article written by a doctor who guessed that we would eventually have to turn to xenotransplantation (异种器官移植) as a possible solution to the lack of human organ donors.(早在20世纪90年代中期，我在报纸上读到一篇医生写的文章，他猜测我们最终将不得不转向异种移植，作为解决人体器官捐献者缺乏的可能方案)”可知，作者写Pig Heart Boy的灵感来自新闻。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Now some people think that the subject matter is not suitable for children, criticizing the cruel and inhuman ways of xenotransplantation.(现在有些人认为这个题材不适合儿童，批评异种移植的残忍和不人道的方式)”可知，有些人认为这个器官移植的题材不适合儿童，是因为他们批评这种器官移植的残忍和不人道的方式。可以推断出这些人认为这些器官移植损害了其他动物的权利，故选A。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“As a children’s author, it never ceases to amaze me how some adults underestimate what subject matter will interest and stimulate children. I wanted to write a story that provided no right or wrong answers, a story that would allow the reader to walk in Cameron’s shoes for a while and think about what decisions they would make and how they would react if they too were faced with his situation.(作为一名儿童作家，一些成年人低估了什么题材会引起孩子们的兴趣和刺激，这一直让我感到惊讶。我想写一个没有正确或错误答案的故事，一个让读者站在卡梅伦的立场上思考一下，如果他们也面临他的处境，他们会做出什么决定，以及他们会如何反应的故事)”以及最后一段“Fictional stories that explore new ideas when it comes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects also have a part to play in enriching our children’s reading and learning. Various studies have shown that reading fiction enhances our children’s ability to grasp new concepts. Pig Heart Boy was my attempt to incorporate science possible into a believable, thought-provoking (令人深思的) story.(在STEM(科学、技术、工程和数学)学科中，探索新思想的虚构故事也可以丰富孩子们的阅读和学习。各种研究表明，阅读小说可以提高孩子掌握新概念的能力。《猪心男孩》是我试图将科学融入一个可信、发人深省的故事)”可知，最后两段主要是讲了支持这本书的证据。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In my story Cameron, who needs a heart transplant, knows he is unlikely to see his next birthday unless he receives one, but he is a long way down the waiting list. When a genetically modified (GM) pig’s heart is offered by a pioneering doctor, Cameron decides to go for it —and his new heart completely changes his life in unexpected ways.(在我的故事中，需要心脏移植的卡梅伦知道，除非他得到一个，否则他不可能活到下一个生日，但他的等待名单已经排在很长的一段路了。当一位开拓性的医生提供了一颗转基因猪的心脏时，卡梅伦决定接受它——他的新心脏以意想不到的方式彻底改变了他的生活)”可推知，这本书主要讲述了需要心脏移植的主人公使用了猪的心脏，并且改变了他的命运。故Pig Heart Boy是一部科幻小说。故选B。 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。 Most people believe that the human brain is set on “automatic” (自动运行的) — that means it learns all by itself. But this isn’t always true. We need to train ourselves to be better learners — to actively take part in the learning process and to reflect on what we have learnt. These kinds of learning behaviours are called “active learning”. ____36____. ●Listen to the outer voice There are two kinds of voices: the inner voice and the outer voice. ____37____, while the outer voice tells you about views from what you hear or read. Although your inner voice can be useful, it can also get in the way of learning. If you keep paying too much attention to it, you risk missing important information. ____38____ If you find your inner voice difficult to control, you can argue with it as most active learners do. When your inner voice tells you a speaker/ writer is wrong, think about why the speaker / writer may be right. Be flexible in your opinions and you might end up agreeing with the speaker/ writer after all. If not, at least you have “listened to” another point of view. ●Ask questions Asking questions is the easiest way to promote active learning. When you get information from someone, from books or the Internet, ask two, three, even five questions about the topic. ____39____. And the very act of working out questions will help you to achieve a higher level of understanding about the topic. In short: Do not stop being curious. ●Get to the truth Active learners do not accept everything they learn. ____40____. Even when an idea sounds entirely unlikely, there may be aspect of it is based on truth. So if someone says that dinosaurs still exist today, think about why they believe this? If you try to find out the source of an idea, no matter how crazy it seems, you’ll increase your chance of learning something. A. Argue with your inner voice B. Focus on the message C. I suggest doing four things to take an active role in your learning. D. That is the truth that we cannot help disliking some people. E. They attempt to find the truth at the heart of each idea. F. The answers will lead you to further learning. G. Your inner voice expresses your personal opinions, 【答案】36. C 37. G 38. A 39. F 40. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了培养主动学习的四种做法。 【36题详解】 根据空前“These kinds of learning behaviours are called “active learning”. (这些学习行为被称为“主动学习”。)”可知此处提出了主动学习的概念，根据后文的“Listen to the outer voice (倾听外面的声音)”可知文章接下来介绍了培养主动学习的四种做法，空处承上启下，所以空处应该讲的是作者要提出有助于培养主动学习的四种做法，C项I suggest doing four things to take an active role in your learning. (我建议做四件在你的学习中发挥积极作用的事情。)指出作者建议做四件对主动学习有意义的事情，承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文语境，故选C项。 【37题详解】 根据空前“There are two kinds of voices: the inner voice and the outer voice. (有两种声音：内心的声音和外在的声音。)”可知此处指出有内心的和外在的两种声音，根据空后“while the outer voice tells you about views from what you hear or read. (而外部的声音则告诉你所听到或读到的观点。)”可知此处指出外在声音的作用，由副词while可知此处是在将内外两种声音的作用进行对比，空处承上启下，所以空处应该讲的是内心声音的作用，G项Your inner voice expresses your personal opinions, (你内心的声音表达了你的个人观点，)指出我们通过内心声音表达个人观点，选项中的your personal opinions与空后的views from what you hear or read形成对比，符合上下文语境，故选G项。 【38题详解】 根据后文“If you find your inner voice difficult to control, you can argue with it as most active learners do. (如果你发现你内心的声音难以控制，你可以像大多数积极的学习者一样与它争论。)”可知本段讲的是当你发现你内心的声音难以控制时，你可以与它进行争论，空处为本段小标题，应对全段内容进行概括，所以空处应该指出第二种培养主动学习的做法是与内心的声音进行争论，A项Argue with your inner voice (和你内心的声音争论)指出第二种做法是要和内心的声音进行争论，概括了本段内容，而且与空后的argue with it意义和结构一致，符合上下文语境，故选A项。 【39题详解】 根据本段小标题“Ask questions (问问题)”以及空前“Asking questions is the easiest way to promote active learning. When you get information from someone, from books or the Internet, ask two, three, even five questions about the topic. (提问是促进主动学习最简单的方法。当你从别人那里获得信息，从书或互联网上，问两个，三个，甚至五个关于这个话题的问题。)”可知此处讲的是可以通过问问题的方式来培养自主学习，根据空后“And the very act of working out questions will help you to achieve a higher level of understanding about the topic. In short: Do not stop being curious. (而解决问题的过程会帮助你对这个话题有更高层次的理解。简而言之：不要停止好奇。)”可知解决问题的过程会让自己对话题有更好的理解，空处承上启下，所以空处应该讲问题的答案对于我们的好处，F 项The answers will lead you to further learning.

See Alan W. to claim.” Al’s email reminded me of an incident that occurred on Christmas 40 years ago. Before heading out for Christmas shopping that evening, I had withdrawn $400 from the bank, foolishly stuffing eight fifty dollar bills in my front trousers pocket. On my way to Oakbrook Shopping Center, I stopped at SportMart to look at skiing equipment for my son. Returning to the car, I discovered the bills were gone. This was $400 in 1983—a huge sum of money! Feeling terrible, I turned my pockets inside out, thinking how I could have been so careless! I turned on my car headlights and desperately looked for the bills in the snow covering the parking area, but found nothing. This was the Chicago area. It was said that people in neighborhoods were not in the habit of turning in cash they found. At the thought of this, I was so sad. With low expectations, I returned to SportMart and started telling my awful tale to the store manager. Hearing I’d lost cash, he interrupted, stating he needed to page(呼叫 ) the store quickly. Someone had earlier reported finding money. The customer wouldn’t say how much or leave the money with the manager, but left his name. The manager was concerned he may have left. I stopped breathing as the page broadcast. Minutes passed, and I was about to give up hope when a man and a boy approached the manager. The manager pointed them in my direction. He was in his mid-thirties, with dark hair, a winter jacket, and a son about 10 or 12 He smiled, “The manager tells me you lost some money. Can you describe the amount and denominations(面额)?” 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。 I told him I’d lost $400, eight fifties. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They left before I could ask them their names. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I told him I’d lost $400, eight fifties. “That’s good enough for us,” he said, reached into his pocket and pulled out the roll of bills. Touching the bills carrying the father’s body temperature, I felt waves of warmth on this cold night. I took out two bills and tried to hand them to his son, but his son shook his head. “You wouldn’t want to ruin Christmas for me and my son, would you? They are yours, and my son and I won’t take them,” the father said. They left before I could ask them their names. This is the most regrettable thing for me. I was too excited at the time and just kept thanking them without asking their names in a timely manner. However, while I don’t have their names, I’ll never forget the Christmas gift from the two total strangers. Who said that in the Chicago area, people didn’t return money when they found it? In fact, there are many honest and kind people around us. Al’s email has also proved this point. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一个物归原主的故事，讲述了1983年圣诞节前，作者在芝加哥丢了400块钱，作者十分着急，把经过的点都找遍了，后来回头找到商店经理，经理说有人告知发现了钱，没有透露数目，但留下了名字。通过广播，捡到钱的人带着自己的儿子过来了，归还了作者丢失的钱，作者十分感激。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我告诉他我丢了400块，8张50的。”可知，第一段可描写捡到钱的人还钱的过程，作者的表现和心情。 ②由第二段首句内容“我还没来得及问他们的名字，他们就走了。”可知，第二段可描写作者后悔没有得到这个诚实的好人的名字，但是心中的无限感激却是永存的。 2.续写线索：确定——拿出钱——接到钱——报答——拒绝——感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 递交：hand/deliver ② 归还：return/give back ③拿出：take out/fetch out 情绪类 ① 遗憾的：regrettable/sorry ②.感谢：thank/be grateful ③兴奋的：excited/thrilled 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

B Hans is a young German born after 1995, who is a big fan of Chinese culture. He has been learning traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) since 2016. Now he is studying for his master’s degree at Henan University of Chinese Medicine. As he thought some diseases can’t be treated thoroughly with Western medicine, he decided to research into TCM. Hans came to Central China’s Henan Province in 2015, where a rich TCM culture can be enjoyed because Henan Province is the hometown of Zhang Zhongjing, the medical master of ancient China. After one year of learning the Chinese language, he started to learn Chinese medicine. Hans thought TCM is one of the best-preserved aspects of Chinese culture. He hopes to solve problems and understand Chinese culture deeply by learning TCM. Without a language barrier, Hans read some of the ancient Chinese medical classics, such as Huangdi Neijing and Yi Jing. He believes different aspects of traditional Chinese culture interact with each other. Studying TCM also changed Hans’ mind and lifestyle. He used to be addicted to electronic devices and stay up late every night, trapped in this fast-paced but unhealthy daily routine. But now, according to the Yin-Yang theory in TCM, he lives a balanced and peaceful life, practicing good habits such as drinking tea and meditating, as well as reading ancient books. Hans also uses what he has learned to help his family. Previously, acupuncture tools and Chinese medicine were necessities when he went back to his home in Germany. With acupuncture and Chinese-style massages, various physical disorders of his family have been well-treated. Now, he always provides his family members with some advice about staying fit after he checks their skin or tongues online. Over time, his family gradually began to understand his passion for TCM. He plans to run a traditional Chinese clinic in China or Germany after graduation, which could serve as a bridge between the two countries and publicize TCM and its culture. 24. What attracted Hans to Henan Province to study TCM? A. Its rich TCM culture. B. Its unique language. C. Its beautiful scenery. D. Its famous university. 25. What makes it possible for Hans to read ancient Chinese medical classics? A. His family’s support. B. His financial situation. C. His language learning. D. His previous experience. 26. How has studying TCM affected Hans? A. He has made a big fortune. B. He has known many medical experts. C. He has set up a clinic in Germany. D. He has developed a healthy lifestyle. 27. Which of the following best describes Hans? A. Ambitious. B. Brave. C. Humorous. D. Good-mannered. C The tea that has delighted and fascinated the world for thousands of years has finally received top-level global recognition as a shared cultural treasure of mankind. China’s traditional tea-making was added on Tuesday to the intangible cultural heritage list of UNESCO. The traditional tea processing techniques and associated social practices in China consist of knowledge, skills and practices concerning the management of tea plantations, picking of tea leaves, manual(手工的)processing, drinking and sharing of tea. Since ancient times, Chinese people have been planting, picking, making and drinking tea. Tea producers have developed six categories of tea: green, yellow, dark, white, oolong and black teas. Together with reprocessed teas, such as flower-scented teas, there are over 2, 000 tea products in China. Tea-related customs are not only found across the country but also influence the rest of the world through the ancient Silk Road and trade routes. Tea is ubiquitous in Chinese people’s daily life, as steeped(浸泡)or boiled tea is served in families, workplaces, tea houses, restaurants and temples, etc. It is also an important part of socialization and ceremonies such as weddings and sacrifices. The practice of greeting guests and building relationships within families and among neighbors through tea- related activities is common to multiple ethnic groups, providing a sense of shared identity and continuity for the communities. In China, 44 registered national-level intangible cultural heritage entries are related to tea. There are over 40 vocational colleges and 80 universities that have set up majors in tea science or tea culture, resulting in over 3,000 graduates specializing in tea production and art every year, according to the ministry. China now has 43 items on the intangible cultural heritage list, continuing to be the most enlisted country in the world. 28. What can be learnt from the passage? A. Chinese producers developed 44 categories of tea. B. Tea is quite popular with people all over the country. C. More than 2,000 tea products could be found in China. D.

D I’m a layperson with a love of science who occasionally reads science magazines. My approach was from an author’s angle, spending months on research before writing a single word for Pig Heart Boy. So where did I get the idea? Whenever I attend a school event, that question is asked. The answer is simple. Back in the mid 1990s, I read a newspaper article written by a doctor who guessed that we would eventually have to turn to xenotransplantation (异种器官移植) as a possible solution to the lack of human organ donors. It left my mind filled with questions. What are the consequences? Do we really have the right to treat animals as me re organ sources for humans? So I headed to my nearest bookshop and bought all the books I could on heart transplants in particular. I’ve found questions are one of the best places to start from when writing a novel. In my story Cameron, who needs a heart transplant, knows he is unlikely to see his next birthday unless he receives one, but he is a long way down the waiting list. When a genetically modified (GM) pig’s heart is offered by a pioneering doctor, Cameron decides to go for it —and his new heart completely changes his life in unexpected ways. Now some people think that the subject matter is not suitable for children, criticizing the cruel and inhuman ways of xenotransplantation. I completely disagree. As a children’s author, it never ceases to amaze me how some adults underestimate what subject matter will interest and stimulate children. I wanted to write a story that provided no right or wrong answers, a story that would allow the reader to walk in Cameron’s shoes for a while and think about what decisions they would make and how they would react if they too were faced with his situation. Fictional stories that explore new ideas when it comes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects also have a part to play in enriching our children’s reading and learning. Various studies have shown that reading fiction enhances our children’s ability to grasp new concepts. Pig Heart Boy was my attempt to incorporate science possible into a believable, thought-provoking (令人深思) story. 32. Where did the author get inspiration from to write Pig Heart Boy? A. A school event. B. A news item. C. Science magazines. D. Books on heart transplants. 33. What might be a major concern of those who disagree with Pig Heart Boy? A. Animal rights. B. GM technology. C. Organ transplant risks. D. Organ shortage crisis. 34. What are the last two paragraphs of the text mainly about? A. Ways of tapping children ‘s intelligence. B. Potential application of fictional stories. C Supporting evidence for justifying the book. D. Influence of fictional stories on STEM subjects. 35. What is Pig Heart Boy? A. An author profile. B. A science fiction novel. C. A guidebook to xenotransplantation. D. An essay on writing children’s literature. 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。 Most people believe that the human brain is set on “automatic” (自动运行的) — that means it learns all by itself. But this isn’t always true. We need to train ourselves to be better learners — to actively take part in the learning process and to reflect on what we have learnt. These kinds of learning behaviours are called “active learning”. ____36____. ●Listen to the outer voice There are two kinds of voices: the inner voice and the outer voice. ____37____, while the outer voice tells you about views from what you hear or read. Although your inner voice can be useful, it can also get in the way of learning. If you keep paying too much attention to it, you risk missing important information. ____38____ If you find your inner voice difficult to control, you can argue with it as most active learners do. When your inner voice tells you a speaker/ writer is wrong, think about why the speaker / writer may be right. Be flexible in your opinions and you might end up agreeing with the speaker/ writer after all. If not, at least you have “listened to” another point of view. ●Ask questions Asking questions is the easiest way to promote active learning. When you get information from someone, from books or the Internet, ask two, three, even five questions about the topic. ____39____. And the very act of working out questions will help you to achieve a higher level of understanding about the topic. In short: Do not stop being curious. ●Get to the truth Active learners do not accept everything they learn. ____40____. Even when an idea sounds entirely unlikely, there may be aspect of it is based on truth. So if someone says that dinosaurs still exist today, think about why they believe this? If you try to find out the source of an idea, no matter how crazy it seems, you’ll increase your chance of learning something. A. Argue with your inner voice B. Focus on the message C. I suggest doing four things to take an active role in your learning. D. That is the truth that we cannot help disliking some people. E. They attempt to find the truth at the heart of each idea. F. The answers will lead you to further learning. G. Your inner voice expresses your personal opinions, 第三部分 语言运用（共二节, 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分, 共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。 The Pygmalion effect (皮格马利翁效应) means that positive expectations lead to better performance while negative expectations lead to worse performance.

See Alan W. to claim.” Al’s email reminded me of an incident that occurred on Christmas 40 years ago. Before heading out for Christmas shopping that evening I had withdrawn $400 from the bank, foolishly stuffing eight fifty dollar bills in my front trousers pocket. On my way to Oakbrook Shopping Center, I stopped at SportMart to look at skiing equipment for my son. Returning to the car, I discovered the bills were gone. This was $400 in 1983—a huge sum of money! Feeling terrible, I turned my pockets inside out, thinking how I could have been so careless! I turned on my car headlights and desperately looked for the bills in the snow covering the parking area, but found nothing. This was the Chicago area. It was said that people in neighborhoods were not in the habit of turning in cash they found. At the thought of this, I was so sad. With low expectations, I returned to SportMart and started telling my awful tale to the store manager. Hearing I’d lost cash, he interrupted, stating he needed to page(呼叫 ) the store quickly. Someone had earlier reported finding money. The customer wouldn’t say how much or leave the money with the manager, but left his name. The manager was concerned he may have left. I stopped breathing as the page broadcast. Minutes passed, and I was about to give up hope when a man and a boy approached the manager. The manager pointed them in my direction. He was in his mid-thirties, with dark hair, a winter jacket, and a son about 10 or 12 He smiled, “The manager tells me you lost some money. Can you describe the amount and denominations(面额)?” 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。 I told him I’d lost $400, eight fifties. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They left before I could ask them their names. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
