After a long day at work, I thought the woman was very terrible. But then I watched a young salesman. He helped her count her coins, ever so kindly taking them from her shaking hands. He repeatedly said to her, “Yes, madam (女士).” When she asked if she had enough money to buy a bag, he told her she did. Then he walked over two lines and got one for her. This salesman wasn’t angry at all. He was patient and kind. As I was watching him, I saw Lingling was, too. I realized my daughter was learning an important lesson from a stranger. When the woman was finished, the salesman began ringing up my things and thanked me for my patience (耐心). I thanked him, too. I found the manager and told him about the salesman’s kindness and patience.

They’re popular with people all around the world. They are certainly a treasure of our country. Then how about their dung (粪便)? Is it thrown away? No, it is treasures, too. How? The panda keeper provides an adult panda with about 25 kilos of bamboo every day. Of that, the panda will eat about eleven kilos—the most delicious parts. Because the panda can’t digest (消化) all the bamboo completely, its dung includes much undigested bamboo. Can people make use of it? It seems impossible for many people. However, someone turned it into paper successfully. “In my opinion, it’s a great achievement,” a panda keeper says. “In the past, we didn’t think the dung was useful, so we just threw it away like rubbish. But now workers come and take the dung away. They use the dung to make paper. They also make notebooks and bookmarks. It is also good for the environment.” However, the paper doesn’t sell well at the Panda Base. It is not popular with tourists. Most of them won’t buy it after they visit the Panda Base. “A box of paper is 43 Yuan,” They said. “That’s quite expensive.” If you see the paper at the Panda Base, will you buy it? Pandas are popular with people all over the world and they are ___17___ a treasure in our eyes. But do you know their dung is also treasures? An adult panda only eats less than half of the 25 kilos of bamboo from its keeper a day. The panda can’t digest all the bamboo, so the panda’s dung ___18___ a lot of undigested bamboo. People find the dung is useful and turn it into paper. It’s also environmentally friendly. However, most ___19___ don’t want to buy the paper because of the high price. As a result, the paper doesn’t sell well at the Panda Base. 【答案】17. certainly 18. includes 19. tourists 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了国宝大熊猫的粪便也是宝贝，人们用它们制成了纸张，但因价格贵而销量不佳。 【17题详解】 根据第一段“Pandas live in the forests and mountains of Southwest China. They’re popular with people all around the world. They are certainly a treasure of our country.”可知，大熊猫深受全世界人民的喜爱，在我们眼中，它们无疑是珍宝；certainly“无疑，确定”，副词，在句中作状语。故填certainly。 【18题详解】 根据第二段“Because the panda can’t digest all the bamboo completely, its dung includes much undigested bamboo.”可知，因为大熊猫不能完全消化所有竹子，它的粪便中包含有很多未消化的竹子；include“包含”，动词；句子时态为一般现在时，主语“the panda’s dung”为第三人称单数，谓语动词应用三单形式includes。故填includes。 【19题详解】 根据最后一段“However, the paper doesn’t sell well at the Panda Base. It is not popular with tourists. Most of them won’t buy it after they visit the Panda Base.”可知，然而，大多数游客都不想买这种纸，因为价格太高；tourist“游客”，可数名词；根据空前“most”和空后“don’t”可知，此处应用名词复数形式tourists作主语。故填tourists。 (E) 请阅读下面的非连续性文本，根据语篇内容，回答问题。 With the development of the technology, people’s life has changed a lot. In the past, connecting (联络) with friends meant spending time with them in person (亲自). Today, most young people like to connect with their friends online better. They think it is a good way to keep in touch with (与……保持联系) their friends. However, experts worry that many young people are so busy connecting with friends online that they may lose their real-world friendships (友谊). Technology hurts friendships. When we communicate with our friends in front of a screen, it’s easier to misread their tones (语调) or body languages. We might think friends are smiling while they’re actually upset. A friend might send a text message as a joke that says, “You’re the worst friend!” But our feelings might be hurt because we think he’s serious. —Andy Technology doesn’t hurt friendships. In fact, it can make them stronger. My best friends live in France where I used to live. The last time I met them in person was three years ago. But I talk to them online every week. It feels like they’re right there with me. Without technology, there wouldn’t be close friends anymore. —Anna Staying connected online is not enough to build true friendships. Spending time together face-to-face is also quite important. During the hard times, people don’t need someone who likes their pictures or posts. What they really need is someone who can offer them help. 20. According to Andy, what problem might people meet when communicating with their friends online? _______________________________________________________________________ 21. Where did Anna use to live? _______________________________________________________________________ 22. How long hasn’t Anna met her friends in France in person? _______________________________________________________________________ 23. Please finish the chart above. ______________________________________________________________________ 24. Do you think technology is hurting your friendships? Why? ______________________________________________________________________ 【答案】20. They misread their friends’ tones or body languages. 21. In France. 22. For three years. 23. Spending time together face-to-face. 24. 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：No, I don’t think so. Because technology can make us be closer and help each other at any time. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了人们与朋友保持在线联系这种方式的利弊和对它的个人看法。 【20题详解】 根据“When we communicate with our friends in front of a screen, it’s easier to misread their tones or body languages.”可知，Andy认为，当人们在屏幕前与朋友交流时，更容易误解朋友的语气或肢体语言。故填They misread their friends’ tones or body languages. 【21题详解】 根据“My best friends live in France where I used to live.”可知，安娜以前生活在法国。故填In France. 【22题详解】 根据“The last time I met them in person was three years ago.”可知，她们有三年没有见面了。故填For three years. 【23题详解】 根据最后一段“Staying connected online is not enough to build true friendships. Spending time together face-to-face is also quite important.”可知，保持在线联系不足以建立真正的友谊，花时间面对面在一起也很重要。故填Spending time together face-to-face. 【24题详解】 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：No, I don’t think so. Because technology can make us be closer and help each other at any time. 八、词语运用（这一部分共两篇短文，A篇有三个小题，每小题2分，B篇有七个小题，每小题2分，共20分） 请阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入恰当的单词，使短文通顺、连贯，每空一词。 Eating is important to everyone. But not many people have time to think about what to eat. “Fast food is easy,” says Sarah Hudson, ___25___ fourteen-year-old high school student from America. She is enjoying her lunch at McDonald’s. “It is quick and delicious.” She eats fast food twice a week. Most Americans know that fast food isn’t good ___26___ them. But it seems that they just can’t give it up. In fact, more and more people are eating fast food, and 96% of American school children know McDonald’s and KFC. It’s no surprise that children ___27___ getting heavier because they love eating French fries. In America, 33% of them are too heavy. That makes it hard for them to move around, go upstairs and even breathe. If they go on eating like this, maybe they will have health problems later in life. 【答案】25. a##one 26. for 27. are 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了食用快餐对身体的不利影响。 【25题详解】 句意：来自美国的 14 岁高中生莎拉·哈德森说：“快餐很简单。”根据“fourteen-year-old high school student”可知，此处是指一个14岁的高中生，可以用one表示数量，也可用不定冠词表示泛指，且“fourteen”是以辅音音素开头的单词，应用a修饰。故填a/one。 【26题详解】 句意：大多数美国人都知道快餐对他们不好。根据语境和“isn’t good…them”可知，此处是指快餐对他们不好，考查be good for“对……有益”，形容词短语。故填for。 【27题详解】 句意：孩子们越来越胖，这并不奇怪，因为他们喜欢吃薯条。结合上文“In fact, more and more people are eating fast food,”和空后“getting”可知，句子时态应为现在进行时，其结构为be doing；主语children为复数，be动词用are。故填are。 请根据语篇内容，用方框中所给词的正确形式填空，使短文通顺、连贯。方框中有两个词为多余项。 simple, work, ride, interest, climb, I, kind, he, pass Setting an example for all: coming forward when needed Zhang Yu ___28___ in the army since he finished senior high school. Now working as a deliveryman (快递员) in Wuhan, Zhang works hard every day. The work is not always ___29___ and usually tiring. However, Zhang never loses his spirit and ___30___. In December 2021, on his way to pick up some deliveries (快递), he found that a fire broke out in one apartment with a family still stuck inside (困在里面). It took Zhang 3 minitues ___31___ up to the third floor and saved the family. When people cheered for him, Zhang said nothing and ___32___ off on his motorbike, continuing with his work. Many people didn’t know Zhang saved the family until the short video went viral (走红) on Douyin. Talking about the event, Zhang ___33___ said, “I’m not a hero (英雄). ___34___ just did what a kind man would do.” Zhang came forward when needed. He set an example for all of us. 【答案】28. has worked 29. interesting 30. kindness 31. to climb 32. rode 33. simply 34. I 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要写了张宇挺身而出，在火海中救人，树立了榜样的事。 【28题详解】 句意：张宇高中毕业后就一直在部队工作。根据“Zhang Yu…in the army since he finished senior high school.”可知，此处缺少一个动词，备选单词work“工作”符合语境；根据“since”可知，时态应为现在完成时，结构是：have/has done，主语Zhang Yu是第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has worked。 【29题详解】 句意：这项工作并不总是有趣的，而且通常很累。根据“The work is not always…”可知，此处缺少一个形容词，备选单词interest“使感兴趣”符合语境，空处应填其形容词形式interesting“有趣的”，句中作表语。故填interesting。 【30题详解】 句意：然而，张从未失去他的精神和善良。根据“his spirit and…”可知，此处缺少一个名词，备选单词kind“善良的”符合语境，空处应填其名词形式kindness“善良”。故填kindness。 【31题详解】 句意：张花了三分钟爬到三楼，救了一家人。根据“It took Zhang 3 minitues…up to the third floor”可知，此处缺少一个动词，备选单词climb“爬”符合语境，climb up to“爬到”；又因为it takes sb some time to do sth“花费某人多少时间做某事”，空处应填climb的不定式形式to climb。故填to climb。 【32题详解】 句意：张什么也没说，骑上摩托车继续他的工作。根据“Zhang said nothing and…off on his motorbike,”可知，此处是一个常用动词短语ride off“骑马(车等)而去”；时态为一般过去时，空处应填备选单词ride的过去式形式rode“骑”。故填rode。 【33题详解】 句意：谈到这件事，张简单地说：“我不是英雄，我只是做了一个善良的人该做的事。” 根据“Zhang…said,”可知，此处缺少一个副词，备选单词simple“简单的”符合语境，空处应填其副词形式simply“简单的”，句中修饰动词said。故填simply。 【34题详解】 句意：谈到这件事，张简单地说：“我不是英雄，我只是做了一个善良的人该做的事。” 根据“‘I’m not a hero (英雄)…just did what a kind man would do.’”可知，此处缺少一个主语，备选单词I“我”符合语境。故填I。 九、书面表达（共15分） 35. 2023年5月16日，习近平总书记到山西运城博物馆考察，感受河东大地的深厚文化底蕴。总书记曾说：“一个博物馆就是一所大学校。”在这所大学校中，同学们可以拓宽视野，增长知识，提升能力，品味文化！“到博物馆去”也在许多年轻人的生活中盛行起来。请你分享一下你曾经参观过的一个博物馆的经历，谈谈你的收获和感悟。 要求： 1. 词数不少于70词； 2. 文中不得出现真实的人名和校名； 3. 参考词汇仅供参考。 Word Bank Science/history/tea/film/space/water/art/museum increase knowledge 增长知识 improve ability 提升能力 taste culture 品味文化 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Hello, everyone.

They are certainly a treasure of our country. Then how about their dung (粪便)? Is it thrown away? No, it is treasures, too. How? The panda keeper provides an adult panda with about 25 kilos of bamboo every day. Of that, the panda will eat about eleven kilos—the most delicious parts. Because the panda can’t digest (消化) all the bamboo completely, its dung includes much undigested bamboo. Can people make use of it? It seems impossible for many people. However, someone turned it into paper successfully. “In my opinion, it’s a great achievement,” a panda keeper says. “In the past, we didn’t think the dung was useful, so we just threw it away like rubbish. But now workers come and take the dung away. They use the dung to make paper. They also make notebooks and bookmarks. It is also good for the environment.” However, the paper doesn’t sell well at the Panda Base. It is not popular with tourists. Most of them won’t buy it after they visit the Panda Base. “A box of paper is 43 Yuan,” They said. “That’s quite expensive.” If you see the paper at the Panda Base, will you buy it? Pandas are popular with people all over the world and they are ___17___ a treasure in our eyes. But do you know their dung is also treasures? An adult panda only eats less than half of the 25 kilos of bamboo from its keeper a day. The panda can’t digest all the bamboo, so the panda’s dung ___18___ a lot of undigested bamboo. People find the dung is useful and turn it into paper. It’s also environmentally friendly. However, most ___19___ don’t want to buy the paper because of the high price. As a result, the paper doesn’t sell well at the Panda Base. (E) 请阅读下面的非连续性文本，根据语篇内容，回答问题。 With the development of the technology, people’s life has changed a lot. In the past, connecting (联络) with friends meant spending time with them in person (亲自). Today, most young people like to connect with their friends online better. They think it is a good way to keep in touch with (与……保持联系) their friends. However, experts worry that many young people are so busy connecting with friends online that they may lose their real-world friendships (友谊). Technology hurts friendships. When we communicate with our friends in front of a screen, it’s easier to misread their tones (语调) or body languages. We might think friends are smiling while they’re actually upset. A friend might send a text message as a joke that says, “You’re the worst friend!” But our feelings might be hurt because we think he’s serious. —Andy Technology doesn’t hurt friendships. In fact, it can make them stronger. My best friends live in France where I used to live. The last time I met them in person was three years ago. But I talk to them online every week. It feels like they’re right there with me. Without technology, there wouldn’t be close friends anymore. —Anna Staying connected online is not enough to build true friendships. Spending time together face-to-face is also quite important. During the hard times people don’t need someone who likes their pictures or posts. What they really need is someone who can offer them help. 20. According to Andy, what problem might people meet when communicating with their friends online? _______________________________________________________________________ 21. Where did Anna use to live? _______________________________________________________________________ 22. How long hasn’t Anna met her friends in France in person? _______________________________________________________________________ 23.
