On March 20, I participated in the Dance World Cup 2024 Korea Qualifiers. As a Korean student, I performed a Chinese ethnic dance. Everyone wondered why, and my parents asked me, “Why didn’t you perform ballet or traditional Korean dance?” Well, this story began when I was 5 years old. At that time, my family moved to Dalian, Liaoning. To develop a special skill, I explored various after-school classes. Among all the options available to me, Chinese dance attracted me the most. The nice dance studio and beautiful costumes all seemed to call out to me, making me eager to try everything.
Learning Chinese dance was indeed challenging, especially when I was practicing the basics, which require a high level of physical flexibility, strength and accuracy. For example, practicing complicated steps repeatedly to achieve accuracy and coordination(协调)can be tiring. However, the moment I mastered a dance routine and performed it onstage, I felt incredibly confident and joyful. Later, I had to return to Korea for school and say goodbye to Chinese dance. After I turned 15, I happened to meet a Chinese dance teacher who had opened a studio in Korea. Without doubt, I signed up in her classes. Although I struggled with some of the difficult dance moves due to the long break, my passion for Chinese dance remained unchanged. Seeing myself in the dance costume again in front of the mirror, I felt like I had regained the unique confidence I had 10 years ago.
In February, I decided to participate in the Dance World Cup and perform a Chinese ethnic dance. I won the gold medal in the competition’s world ethnic dance category. Through this competition, my love for Chinese dance grew even stronger, and I was delighted to show Chinese culture to a broader Korean audience.
4. What did the author’s parents think about her choice of dance?
A. Wonderful. B. Acceptable. C. Inspiring. D. Surprising.
5. What’s the author’s difficulty in learning Chinese dance?
A. Lacking confidence on stage. B. Adapting to the life routine in China.
C. Meeting high standards of the basics. D. Having too many after-school classes.
6. Why did the author return to Chinese dance?
A. To open a dance studio in Korea. B. For her love for Chinese dance.
C. To win a medal in the competition. D. For the popularity of Chinese culture.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Embracing Chinese Culture in Dance B. Performing on a Worldwide Stage
C. Exchanges Between China and Korea D. Ups and Downs of Chinese Dances
C
Children do not laugh for joy. Scientific studies, including my own, show that there is something much deeper than joy in a child’s laughter. I find that it is closely connected to brain and personality development: children laugh for very different reasons at different stages of development.
Laughter begins soon after birth. Babies learn to laugh because they want to copy their parents expressions, and to receive attention and praise from them. This is the way babies learn everything at first: through copying and receiving attention and praise of adults around them.
But as they grow, they learn to distinguish their own person from their parents and the world around them. Once they begin to behave on their own — from age 2 to 5 — they begin to feel something new for the first time: certain things may seem cold, strange, or out of place, and this shocks, confuses and amazes them. This is where laughter comes in: after a moment of hesitation, they understand that what seemed frightening or unexpected is actually harmless.
For instance, a child laughs when they see their father with a funny clown nose. Why? Because for a second they felt embarrassed: that nose is not a “live” nose. When they understand it was just dad’s joke, they calm down and laugh. They may also laugh when their older brother makes a silly face, and the process is the same.
From age 5 or 6 and up, children learn to handle abstract (抽象的) ideas, meaning they can grasp and “get” jokes. Before that, they are at the earlier stage of being self-centered, which hinders their understanding of others’ reasoning. But once they overcome it, their laughter process is the same as that of adults.
These three stages of laughter development are good indicators of child’s mental growth and development.
8. Why do babies laugh soon after birth?
A. They are expressing their happiness. B. They are showing their personality.
C. They are learning their parents’ behavior. D. They are giving praise to their parents.
9. What’s the babies’ mental process of laughing from age 2 to 5?
A. They feel amazed, understand and laugh. B. They feel harmless, hesitate and laugh.
C. They hesitate, feel frightened and laugh. D. They understand, feel shocked and laugh.
10. Why does the author mention the father and the brother in paragraph 4?
A. To give examples. B. To provide methods.
C. To make comparisons. D. To offer suggestions.
11. What does the underlined word “hinders” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Forms. B. Deepens. C. Reflects. D. Prevents.
D
Wake up energetically at 6 am, exercise for over an hour after freshening up, and study productively throughout the day. This daily schedule is frequently featured in vlogs on social media with the theme of “self-discipline (自律)”.
But when trying out such a schedule, many of us may feel lacking in energy. Is it just because we are lazy? Why do some people seem to have so much energy? There’s a whole lot you can explore about your energy levels.
Genetic differences, to start with, can significantly influence our energy levels. A tiny part in our DNA called SNPs can help to explain 8.4 percent of cases of feeling tired, according to a 2018 study.
The food you eat also gives you energy. However, there’s an often-forgotten element —vitamin D. A study published in 2019 in the journal Nutrients noted that older adults with reduced vitamin D levels experienced state of being tired more than those with normal levels. You can get enough amount of it by sunbathing or having enough vitamin-D-rich foods, such as fish, eggs and milk.
Another analysis published in Nutrients in 2020 found that eating foods high in a certain fat is linked to too much daytime sleepiness. These foods probably include some of your favorites: butter, cheese, ice cream, and fried foods.
Even if a workout leaves you in sweat and out of breath, exercise can actually increase your energy. ”When you exercise, you release hormones (激素),” US expert Sabrena Jo told the Health website. “This hormone actually tells our bodies to forget feelings of pain and tiredness while helping blood flow to large muscles.” This “excitement” in your body can last for several hours. Exercise helps, but only to a point. Those who exercise too frequently may experience negative impacts on their energy levels.
12. What affects our energy levels according to the 2018 study?
A. Self-discipline. B. The daily schedule.
C. Productive study. D. A certain part of DNA.
13. What did the study in 2019 find?
A. Vitamin D is a major energy source. B. People feel sleepy due to a certain fat.
C. Vitamin D levels is related to energy levels. D. People often forget to have Vitamin D.
14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The more exercise, the better. B. Sweat has negative impacts on energy levels.
C. Adjusting breath rate releases hormones. D. Proper exercise reduces feeling of tiredness.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Ways to improve energy levels. B. Elements influencing energy levels.
C. Balanced nutrients in daily foods. D. Genetic differences benefiting our health.

On arriving home after school, Dean rushed into his room, shut the door and turned on his computer.
Like many teenage boys, 17-year-old Dean was addicted to the digital world, spending countless hours on his computer playing games and surfing the Internet. The only sounds were the clicking of his keyboard and the occasional excited shout. Days passed, and Dean’ grades began to suffer. He skipped meals, lost sleep, and ignored his friends. His eyes were always red and dull as if he were lost in another world.
Dean’s parents, seeing the worsening situation, repeatedly advised him to take a break and focus on his studies. However, their words fell on deaf ears. The frequent conflicts between Dean and his parents grew increasingly tense, leading to a violent argument one day.
“You’re always on that computer! When are you going to do something productive with your life?” shouted Dean’s father, a mixture of concern and anger in his voice.
Dean sat in his chair, eyes fixed on the screen. He didn’t even look up as he replied, “I’m fine. I’m happy.”
The father rushed toward Dean and firmly turned down the computer.
“No! Why did you do that?” Dean yelled, jumping to his feet. His heart pounded with a mix of anger and panic.
“Because you need to get out of this virtual world and start living in the real one!” the father shouted, his voice shaking.
A wave of anger swept over Dean. “You don’t understand! This is my life!” He stormed out of the house, vowing (发誓) never to return.
He went into a nearby Internet cafe (网吧). There he spent the next three days and nights lost in the thrill of gaming.

On March 20, I participated in the Dance World Cup 2024 Korea Qualifiers. As a Korean student, I performed a Chinese ethnic dance. Everyone wondered why, and my parents asked me, “Why didn’t you perform ballet or traditional Korean dance?” Well, this story began when I was 5 years old. At that time, my family moved to Dalian, Liaoning. To develop a special skill, I explored various after-school classes. Among all the options available to me, Chinese dance attracted me the most. The nice dance studio and beautiful costumes all seemed to call out to me, making me eager to try everything.
Learning Chinese dance was indeed challenging, especially when I was practicing the basics, which require a high level of physical flexibility, strength and accuracy. For example, practicing complicated steps repeatedly to achieve accuracy and coordination(协调)can be tiring. However, the moment I mastered a dance routine and performed it onstage, I felt incredibly confident and joyful. Later, I had to return to Korea for school and say goodbye to Chinese dance. After I turned 15, I happened to meet a Chinese dance teacher who had opened a studio in Korea. Without doubt, I signed up in her classes. Although I struggled with some of the difficult dance moves due to the long break, my passion for Chinese dance remained unchanged. Seeing myself in the dance costume again in front of the mirror, I felt like I had regained the unique confidence I had 10 years ago.
In February, I decided to participate in the Dance World Cup and perform a Chinese ethnic dance. I won the gold medal in the competition’s world ethnic dance category. Through this competition, my love for Chinese dance grew even stronger, and I was delighted to show Chinese culture to a broader Korean audience.

Children do not laugh for joy. Scientific studies, including my own, show that there is something much deeper than joy in a child’s laughter. I find that it is closely connected to brain and personality development: children laugh for very different reasons at different stages of development.
Laughter begins soon after birth. Babies learn to laugh because they want to copy their parents expressions, and to receive attention and praise from them. This is the way babies learn everything at first: through copying and receiving attention and praise of adults around them.
But as they grow, they learn to distinguish their own person from their parents and the world around them. Once they begin to behave on their own — from age 2 to 5 — they begin to feel something new for the first time: certain things may seem cold, strange, or out of place, and this shocks, confuses and amazes them. This is where laughter comes in: after a moment of hesitation, they understand that what seemed frightening or unexpected is actually harmless.
For instance, a child laughs when they see their father with a funny clown nose. Why? Because for a second they felt embarrassed: that nose is not a “live” nose. When they understand it was just dad’s joke, they calm down and laugh. They may also laugh when their older brother makes a silly face, and the process is the same.
From age 5 or 6 and up, children learn to handle abstract (抽象的) ideas, meaning they can grasp and “get” jokes. Before that, they are at the earlier stage of being self-centered, which hinders their understanding of others’ reasoning. But once they overcome it, their laughter process is the same as that of adults.
These three stages of laughter development are good indicators of child’s mental growth and development.
8. Why do babies laugh soon after birth?
A They are expressing their happiness. B. They are showing their personality.
C. They are learning their parents’ behavior. D. They are giving praise to their parents.
9. What’s the babies’ mental process of laughing from age 2 to 5?
A. They feel amazed, understand and laugh. B. They feel harmless, hesitate and laugh.
C. They hesitate, feel frightened and laugh. D. They understand, feel shocked and laugh.
10. Why does the author mention the father and the brother in paragraph 4?
A. To give examples. B. To provide methods.
C. To make comparisons. D. To offer suggestions.
11. What does the underlined word “hinders” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Forms. B. Deepens. C. Reflects. D. Prevents.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学研究表明,孩子的笑声与大脑和人格的发展密切相关:孩子们在不同的发育阶段会因为不同的原因而笑。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Laughter begins soon after birth. Babies learn to laugh because they want to copy their parents expressions, and to receive attention and praise from them.(笑声在出生后不久就开始了。婴儿学会笑是因为他们想模仿父母的表情,并得到父母的关注和称赞)”可知,婴儿出生后不久就会笑是因为他们在学习父母的行为。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Once they begin to behave on their own — from age 2 to 5 — they begin to feel something new for the first time: certain things may seem cold, strange, or out of place, and this shocks, confuses and amazes them. This is where laughter comes in: after a moment of hesitation, they understand that what seemed frightening or unexpected is actually harmless.(一旦他们开始独立行动(从 2 岁到 5 岁),他们就会开始第一次感受到一些新事物:某些事物可能看起来很冷、很奇怪或不合时宜,这让他们感到震惊、困惑和惊讶。这就是笑声的来源:经过片刻的犹豫,他们明白那些看似可怕或出乎意料的事情实际上是无害的)”可知,2岁至5岁婴儿在第一次感受到一些新事物时会惊讶,接着他们会明白那些看似可怕或出乎意料的事情实际上是无害的,然后他们会大笑。由此可知,2岁至5岁婴儿笑的心理过程是:惊奇、理解并大笑。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“For instance, a child laughs when they see their father with a funny clown nose. Why? Because for a second they felt embarrassed: that nose is not a “live” nose. When they understand it was just dad’s joke, they calm down and laugh. They may also laugh when their older brother makes a silly face, and the process is the same.(例如,当孩子看到父亲的滑稽小丑鼻子时,他们会笑。为什么?因为他们一瞬间感到尴尬:那鼻子不是“活”鼻子。当他们明白那只是爸爸的玩笑时,他们会冷静下来,笑起来。当他们的哥哥做鬼脸时,他们也可能会笑,过程是一样的)”可推知,第四段在举例子解释2岁至5岁婴儿笑的心理过程,故选A。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“From age 5 or 6 and up, children learn to handle abstract (抽象的) ideas, meaning they can grasp and “get” jokes. (从 5 岁或 6 岁起,孩子们开始学习处理抽象的概念,这意味着他们可以理解和“领会”笑话)”和划线单词所在句子“Before that, they are at the earlier stage of being self-centered, which hinders their understanding of others’ reasoning.(在此之前,他们处于以自我为中心的早期阶段,这hinders他们理解他人的推理)”可知,儿童在5 岁或 6 岁前以自我为中心,这会阻碍他们理解他人的推理,过了这个阶段后,他们就开始学习处理抽象的概念,就可以理解和“领会”笑话。由此推知,划线单词意为“阻碍”,故选D。
D
Wake up energetically at 6 am, exercise for over an hour after freshening up, and study productively throughout the day. This daily schedule is frequently featured in vlogs on social media with the theme of “self-discipline (自律)”.
But when trying out such a schedule, many of us may feel lacking in energy. Is it just because we are lazy? Why do some people seem to have so much energy? There’s a whole lot you can explore about your energy levels.
Genetic differences, to start with, can significantly influence our energy levels. A tiny part in our DNA called SNPs can help to explain 8.4 percent of cases of feeling tired, according to a 2018 study.
The food you eat also gives you energy. However, there’s an often-forgotten element —vitamin D. A study published in 2019 in the journal Nutrients noted that older adults with reduced vitamin D levels experienced state of being tired more than those with normal levels. You can get enough amount of it by sunbathing or having enough vitamin-D-rich foods, such as fish, eggs and milk.
Another analysis published in Nutrients in 2020 found that eating foods high in a certain fat is linked to too much daytime sleepiness. These foods probably include some of your favorites: butter, cheese, ice cream, and fried foods.
Even if a workout leaves you in sweat and out of breath, exercise can actually increase your energy. ”When you exercise, you release hormones (激素),” US expert Sabrena Jo told the Health website. “This hormone actually tells our bodies to forget feelings of pain and tiredness while helping blood flow to large muscles.” This “excitement” in your body can last for several hours. Exercise helps, but only to a point. Those who exercise too frequently may experience negative impacts on their energy levels.
12. What affects our energy levels according to the 2018 study?
A. Self-discipline. B. The daily schedule.
C. Productive study. D. A certain part of DNA.
13. What did the study in 2019 find?
A. Vitamin D is a major energy source. B. People feel sleepy due to a certain fat.
C. Vitamin D levels is related to energy levels. D. People often forget to have Vitamin D.
14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The more exercise, the better. B. Sweat has negative impacts on energy levels.
C. Adjusting breath rate releases hormones. D. Proper exercise reduces feeling of tiredness.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Ways to improve energy levels. B. Elements influencing energy levels.
C. Balanced nutrients in daily foods. D. Genetic differences benefiting our health.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要探讨了影响人们精力水平的多种因素,包括遗传差异、饮食、维生素D的摄入以及运动。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中,2018年的研究“A tiny part in our DNA called SNPs can help to explain 8.4 percent of cases of feeling tired (我们DNA中的一小部分称为SNPs,可以帮助解释8.4%的疲劳感案例)”表明,特定的DNA部分影响我们的精力水平。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段,2019年的研究“A study published in 2019 in the journal Nutrients noted that older adults with reduced vitamin D levels experienced state of being tired more than those with normal levels (2019年发表在《营养素》杂志上的一项研究指出,维生素D水平较低的老年人比那些水平正常的老年人更容易感到疲倦)”可知,维生素D水平与精力水平有关。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中提到“exercise can actually increase your energy(运动实际上可以增加你的精力)”和“This hormone actually tells our bodies to forget feelings of pain and tiredness while helping blood flow to large muscles. (这种激素实际上告诉我们的身体忘记疼痛和疲劳的感觉,同时帮助血液流向大肌肉群。)”可知,适当的运动可以减少疲劳感。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Genetic differences, to start with, can significantly influence our energy levels (首先,遗传差异可以显著影响我们的精力水平)”和第四段“The food you eat also gives you energy (你吃的食物也给你提供能量)”可知,文章主要讨论了影响精力水平的因素,包括遗传、饮食、维生素D和运动,故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了一位来自法国的太极爱好者练习太极拳20多年,迷上了这项中国传统武术,并带动更多的外国友人习练太极拳。
【36题详解】
考查连词。句意:太极,这项古老的武术,不仅在中国,而且在全球范围内被广泛练习。这个句子使用了not only…but also…的并列结构,其中also可以省略,故填but。
【37题详解】
考查定冠词。句意:尽管没有关于全世界太极学习者数量的正式数据,但可以说这项武术多年来享有广泛的普及。the number of后面接名词,表示“……的数量”,故填the。
【38题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意:来自法国波尔多的44岁太极爱好者Guillaume Large已经练习太极超过20年。根据主语Guillaume Large是第三人称单数,结合时间状语“for over 20 years”,此处可使用现在完成时态表示已经练习太极20多年,也可用现在完成进行时,表示已经练习太极20多年,还将继续下去。故填has practiced/has been practicing。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:Large年轻时在体育上受伤,并决定开始在法国的一个当地俱乐部练习太极作为一种恢复方式。根据前面的冠词a可知,这里要填名词,injure的名词是injury,作宾语。故填injury。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:从那时起,他逐渐爱上了传统的中国艺术。修饰动词fell in love with,需要副词形式,gradual的副词形式是gradually。故填gradually。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:2007年,Large和他的同伴们成立了一个组织,该设空处引导非限定性定语从句,先行词是an organization,表示物,设空处指代先行词在从句中充当主语,故填which。
【42题详解】
考查动名词。句意:2007年,Large和他的同伴们成立了一个组织,该组织的目标是通过教授太极、中文以及中国文化的其他方面,在法国传播中国文化。through是介词,意思是“通过”,后面接teach动名词形式,作宾语。故填teaching。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:从那时起,他几乎每年都带领法国学生来到河南省学习。这个句子考查了lead的固定用法“lead sb. to do”,意思是“引导某人做某事”,不定式作宾补,故填to come。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:他们在那里可以接收到大师的个人指导,并观看太极表演。person是名词,后面接另外一个名词guidance,说明需要将person变成形容词作定语,去修饰guidance,其形容词是personal,意思是“个人的”。故填personal。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:现在法国人越来越喜欢中国文化,我希望我们的关系能够越来越好。fond是一个形容词,意思是“喜爱”,其固定用法是be fond of。故填of。

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
On arriving home after school, Dean rushed into his room, shut the door and turned on his computer.
Like many teenage boys, 17-year-old Dean was addicted to the digital world, spending countless hours on his computer playing games and surfing the Internet. The only sounds were the clicking of his keyboard and the occasional excited shout. Days passed, and Dean’ grades began to suffer. He skipped meals, lost sleep, and ignored his friends. His eyes were always red and dull as if he were lost in another world.
Dean’s parents, seeing the worsening situation, repeatedly advised him to take a break and focus on his studies. However, their words fell on deaf ears. The frequent conflicts between Dean and his parents grew increasingly tense, leading to a violent argument one day.
“You’re always on that computer! When are you going to do something productive with your life?” shouted Dean’s father, a mixture of concern and anger in his voice.
Dean sat in his chair, eyes fixed on the screen. He didn’t even look up as he replied, “I’m fine. I’m happy.”
The father rushed toward Dean and firmly turned down the computer.
“No! Why did you do that?” Dean yelled, jumping to his feet. His heart pounded with a mix of anger and panic.
“Because you need to get out of this virtual world and start living in the real one!” the father shouted, his voice shaking.
A wave of anger swept over Dean. “You don’t understand! This is my life!” He stormed out of the house, vowing (发誓) never to return.
He went into a nearby Internet cafe (网吧). There he spent the next three days and nights lost in the thrill of gaming.
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。
Paragraph 1:
As the days passed, Dean gradually used up his pocket money.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
In the depths of his despair (绝望), a familiar voice called out to him.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
As the days passed, Dean gradually used up his pocket money. The thrill of gaming began to fade, replaced by a growing sense of unease and hunger. The Internet cafe, once a haven, now felt cramped and suffocating. His eyes, once glued to the screen, now felt heavy and strained, a constant reminder of his excessive indulgence. He couldn’t ignore the pangs of guilt that gnawed at his conscience, knowing that he had abandoned his responsibilities and the people who cared for him.
Paragraph 2:
In the depths of his despair, a familiar voice called out to him. It was his mother, her voice tinged with worry but also with unwavering love. “Dean, it’s time to come back,” she said softly, tears glistening in her eyes. The words pierced through Dean’s fog of anger and addiction, reminding him of the warmth and comfort that awaited him at home. For the first time in days, he felt a pang of longing for the real world, for the people who cared for him. Slowly, he stood up, turning off the computer for the last time, ready to face the challenges of the real world with renewed determination.
